156 V6 spark plugs
I'm just wondering how easy it is to remove the spark plugs on a 156 V6? I
gather you have to remove part of the engine to gain access but it's not obvious which part from looking at it. Has anyone done this? It has been a simple job on my other cars, but the Alfa is in a different league! |

You need to remove the plenum chamber to get to the rear bank of cylinders. -- David C 156 Selespeed sp3 + Brembo conversion |

I would even let you try to find mine............. -- Ciao from Holland AlfistaGJ (Gert-Jan) Alfa red 156 SW 1.8 Madeno tuned (2000) Golden Montreal 1428700 (1973/4) |

Maybe it's easier on the small engined 156 like yours? It think the question is
perfectly valid for the V6. You should have a look at one sometime and you will see what I mean. |

Ppelectron is right.
On the V6 engine the spark plugs are under the cilynder head coverage; the 2nd isn't so difficult to remove, but if you want to remove the 1st, you have to remove the air intake box, that's on the top of it. -- Jacopo Bolzano, Italia -- Sportwagon 2.5 V6 24V Distinctive "Alfistagj" > ha scritto nel messaggio news:OuRHc.1611$vH5.1359@amstwist00... > > "Ppelectron" > schreef in bericht > ... > > Maybe it's easier on the small engined 156 like yours?
