Hoping that someone will share what tools they use when replacing the spark plugs on our Turbo Regals. I assume some tool manufacturer makes a wrench, extension, etc. that makes accessing #6 somewhat easier. Anyone wish to share their tricks of the trade? Thanks.

A long extension with a universal on the end, and a plug socket. Pretty easy. That one is the toughest. ;)
 
I use a COUPLE looonnngg extensions with a swivel and plug socket for #6... like 2 ft.+ of extension.... makes it a piece of cake....
 
Gotta agree with the previous 2 replies. Just be patient. I got frustrated the first try, chilled, had a beer and succes, plug installed. Tighten as far as you can by hand to limit socket work.
 
To get the plug started use a piece of vacuum hose. Simply slide the hose over the plug and go after it. That will get the threads started so you can get a socket on it to tighten it down. Just be patient and it gets easier the more you do it.
