Transmission plug



With the limited experience I have on this car it really is not as bad as some of the others i have owned. The back 3 plugs however are not exactly a cake walk.
 
when i got my car the last owners must have attempted a tune up, but only changed one rear plug, 2 were way older looking and a different brand all together.

unbolt the dog bones then with a ratchet strap pull the engine forward this will give you a good 3 inches of extra room, enough to see the plugs now.

the middle rear iirc is the one blocked by the o2 sensor, i put the socket on the plug, then was able to just put the tip of a 3 inch extension in the socket, then broke it free. you'll see what i mean when you get to that plug.

or if you have real spark plug sockets that have a bolt head at the top, use a wrench on the plug socket to break it free.
 


It's the plug on the transmission. I think I may have fixed it or I broke it for good. I'm scared to pull it back out.
 
How do I do that? I didn't see it anywhere in the link. Do I need to pull the pan or can I just pull the side cover?
 


Ouch yeah that connector has to be replaced. I think you will have to drop the pan and unclip all the solenoids and such. I really dont know on these transmissions though. I have never had one apart. From previous experience on other transmissions (4L60/4L80/5R55/4R70/4R100) you have to drop the pan.
