Some already know what kind of trouble I have been having changing the spark plugs on my 2003 GMC Envoy. Well I finally got #6 installed today. We all know that changing spark plugs is not a big deal unless they A-Sell you the wrong plugs B-you are an old guy and have severe balance issues. Etc. etc.
I am throwing in some pictures I took in the last couple of days. 1 includes a waste of money on the Vevor Topside Creeper 2 what I did to solve my problem of balance and reaching. BTW I just spent 3 months undergoing Physical Therapy treatment for Vertigo. Not my favorite way to spend my retirement years. But I have this Never Give Up in my DNA syndrome. At least that is what I was telling myself when I was changing #6 plug that is stuffed back under the firewall. Design engineers should be required to own a toolbox and years of experience of using the tools before they can design a vehicle. The best part is the last plug is in and just waiting for me to install a new fuel pressure regulator which I found was bad when I unhooked the vacuum line for the Air Box plenum to get to the plugs. Okay Nuff of my stuff. The reason there are so many pictures of the VEVOR Topside Creeper is I tried every angle to make it work but you can see it will require modifications before it is usable. Of course i had to take a picture of the last spark plug since I have been trying to get them changed for over a week now. And last but not least is the 2 stools strapped together for safety so this old man could climb onto them with them flipping backwards. Now on with the show.
