Changing Spark Plugs ( Didnt change all )
so i changed my own spark plugs, and ive changed 5 Out of 6 Plugs... because i didnt have enough time to finish the LAST one which was the REAR LEFT one. would this cause any problems, ive been driving my car for about a month or more now, and still havent changed the last spark plug..because i dont have enough time on my hands, i was wondering if this would ruin the rest of the plugs, or would it affect anything.... and what would be the problems. . and i havent been noticing anything unusual thats why i didnt bother yet.

You heard it from the horses mouth it's pure laziness, everything is hard when you are lazy. If he/she had time to do 5 he sure as hell could done the last one. That's like buying 3 brand new rims and leaving the 4th stock. come on man do the right thing and redeem yourself

I had the pleasure of changing my spark plugs last year with a set of Denso Iridiums. I found the best thing to do is remove the strut tower brace before attempting to do the rear set. Also, don't forget to put a little Di-electric grease on the plug and some anti seize on the threads. That way, they will come off without a hitch next time you swap them out.

Took me about 25min to do mine lol. My plugs were stuck in there though the previous owner decided not to change them. Anyway its a simple process and as mentioned removing the strut bar makes life a lot easier. Usually I do the backs first then I do the front lol.

technically the plugs not due till 105, so hard to blame the last owner for not changing them
reality says change them at 60-70k miles and enjoy better performance and mileage
Use NGK Iridium

Does anyone change the spark plug wires at 105k, also? Why or why not and with what possible brands? What's the difference between Denso and NGK iridium(s)?
