Default '95 ES300 Spark Plugs Replacement

Hello All,

I've recently checked the spark plugs on my sis' '95 ES300 and they're due for a replacement. However, I have one little problem; how do I gain access to the spark plugs on the bank of cylinders near the firewall?

Any suggestions as to which method will be the quickest way to achieve this goal?

THANKS alot.

I advise you to please use the search engine next time. A question like the one you asked has been brought up numerous times in the past. Anyway here's the answer I found from the CL search engine in 2 sec.

Thanks for the help

I'm so sorry for not using the search engine properly (I put in fewer keywords than I should have).

Again thank you!

Cool

cw,

I'm not 100% sure if your 95 ES calls for platinum plugs or Iridium plugs. I do however have the part numbers for NGK & Denso. These are OEM (original equipment) part & stock numbers, so they are the best available for your ES.

Ngk part number - BKR6EP-11 & the ngk stock number is: 2978 with a .044 gap.

Denso part number - PK20R-11. I hope this helps....Good Luck!

Thanks much!

I bought Denso Premium PK20TR11. These were almost identical to the Platinum OEM spark plugs on the car (PK20R11) except these had dual tips. I just finished the replacement, took me nearly 3 hours to finish. Started it right up, will go for a drive in the morning since its raining here in northern cali.

Thanks again guys
