Sparkplug Tool / Sparkplug Change

I was hoping someone on here would let me borrow / rent their sparkplug tool so I can change my sparkplugs or even better one of you awesome mechanically inclined guys would change them for me for a reasonable price.

Also, open to going to a shop that isn't going to charge be ridiculous amounts of labor.

Thanks in advance!

I got this only problem is the rubber gasket is too tight so I just pull it out when I install the plugs.

its so easy that if you cant figure out how to do it then you shouldn't even bother trying.. it takes like 30 minutes if you take a coffee break.

just go to part source and get the tool size then grind down the sides to slide in the hole loosen the spark plug then get a small magnet pen to pull the spark plug

done

I have the tool if you want to borrow, or buy from me since I have 2. One is brand new

It's not too hard to change, I could even help you....I'll charge you......free 99

I changed mine with no special tools. A standard socket set with a little ingenuity and determination is all it takes.
