As always, THANK YOU for sharing all that you do!
Your descriptions are succinct and easy to understand.
However, the real highlight is your picture taking!
All of the right shots, that also explain visually the methodology used!

It is you and the others that take the time to do this, that gives other owners, particularly, newer ones, the confidence to tackle these jobs!

Thanks Marty, your reply is very much appreciated.
Lol....yes there is a method to my madness....lol
I try to give as much as a visual as possible, maybe an individual who has never attempted anything before, would be willing to give it a try between the pics and other members advice, would get them through it...btw, I liked the extended breaker bar pic the best!!! lol


Doing some research, it seems that the anti-seize is not really needed, but to use a very light coat of oil instead. I also found that the torque of the plugs should be 15 lb.ft
I rather check for re-torque if necessary rather than overtighten.
