95+ you have to pull the dash to change the heater core. to channge the plugs you need a few extensions a wobble helpps and YOU NUST USE THE OEM MOTORCRAFT OR AUTOLITE WIRESUse a long pair of wire pullers, and a long extension.
You can access the #1 plug in the left bank easily, as well as the #5. Its 3 &4 that are a little tricky. to get to # 4 step on the driver side and look between the split in the tube on the intake. Where it splits off into a "Y". You can access the plug and wire right through there. To get to # 3 I believe you just have to remove the throttle linkage guard ( plastic cove rover the throttle body. its only one bolt.) and you can see and access the plug and wire on #3.
You will have to work slowly and carefully with the wire pullers but if you have a good long skinny pair they will work just fine. You will have to line the boot up with the plug with your fingers on 4 & 3 before you push it on with the plug wire pullers.
Its not bad just tedious. I did mine on both sides in about 40 minutes and that included gaping the new plugs.
Just try not to over think it. Just get in there tools in hand and you'll figure it out easy enough.
You changed thew timing belt while you were there doing the pump to right ? Same amount of work and worth doing while you have the fan and drive belt off....
There is an access panel inside the cab to get to your heater core. After you get the hoses off and the panel cover off pull the heater core back and down to get it out.
I suggest putting paper towels and a pan to fit under there so you don't get coolant all over and have to smell it for ever in the cab.
Hahahaha, I used the Motorcraft wires on my truck.... even paid extra for them. They were crap from day one. They would arc, and I could hear it pop through the radio. I just kinda dealt with the annoyance for a year, then took them back off and they were falling apart as i removed them (hardened, brittle)... Exchanged them at the store for some Borg Warner cables, and they have been good to go.95+ you have to pull the dash to change the heater core. to channge the plugs you need a few extensions a wobble helpps and YOU NUST USE THE OEM MOTORCRAFT OR AUTOLITE WIRES
I am definitely not a BW rep...YZ250 you are only the 2nd person in about 10000 posts that trashed autolite/motorcraft. Did the BW have the hooks? Let me guess you a rep for Borg Warner!
