hello everyone,

i found the following and was wondering if anyone has used these specific tools for spark plug replacement. i do not have a number for the ratchet - anyone have a guess? seems like the factory likes them:

It's just a 3/8" drive ratchet - it does not need to be Snap On.

A wobble extension is fairly easy to find too - try Sears.

I recently used the Snap-on wobble bar ( FXWP4 ) and plug socket ( S9706KRA ) with a non-snap-on torque wrench with no problems. One thing that could cause you some anxiety is that the rubber socket insert really grips onto the plug when withdrawing the socket from the tightened spark plug. Next time I do the plugs I'll lube the rubber insert or remove the insert completely.
