Question sparkplug trouble

Hello Guys, I have been reading all the good information about our first generation GS300's, and I have a few problems with mine. I have a 95 gs with about 209,000 on the dash. Th car still runs great except for a few minor problems. I am having a hard time getting those two sparkplugs under the intake out because I don't know how to take it apart and when I get it apart is there a gasket that has to be replaced in there. I could use some advice on this please.....

Default use the search feature

im sure this topic has been covered many times before.
when searching, type in tuneup, sparkplug, gs300, removing spark plugs on gs300. something like that. sometimes you will have to make several attempts, but something as common as your request will undoubtedly be there.

hope that helps

Just remove the throttle body. I didn't replace any gaskets. I think we loosened the bolts on the intake manifold just so we could lift it about a 1/2" to give us more room. If you want to take it off, there is a bolt underneath. You will need a long extension to reach it from underneath the car.

Check your cap and rotor, too.
