hi again just got my plugs fitted all 12 of them, well my next problem is i can not get the back two plug caps on on the v6 there is not alot of room, i can get the cap on the plug but the final push to to lock it in will not happen, allthe others go on because i can give them more pressure is their a knack to this or is more steath needed greg 3.2 v6 clk con:

Can you lever them on with a flat object

 

[Ellsy Tanners]

squirt some lube into the cap, then it will pop on more easily.

Silicone grease is better

Do make sure that one of the cap prongs are not bent to far inwards

 

[jberks]

twist and rock the cap and apply as much pressure as you can. It's a bugger isn't it!
