This will be my first tune up, will be using bosch copper plugs. (small budget for the truck) Are they good, bad?
What special tools will I need, I have a socket set, gapper and will do one at a time to avoid confusion.Will wd40 work for stubborn plugs. Any advice/walkthrough will be sincerely appreciated. Thanks. Specs: 84 c10 305 cid Auto trans Dual exhaust 4b carb Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: Tune-up, advice
Socket set is good if you have a plug socket with it. If not, you need to get you one.
One at a time is good way unless you just want to mark all your wires so you know where they go when you get ready to put them back on. Hopefully you don't need any WD-40. Has the motor been sitting up? Too much pressure and you'll bust the plug and thats not good for anything. So take your time. Do you know what the gap is? Depending on the tool you have, some have little notches so you can bend the gap where it needs to be. Only takes a little bit to get it there. Also, if you bump or drop the plug while you're installing, regap just to be sure. Other than that, you should be good.
