I changed one last summer, and I put the car on stands high enough to pull the tranny. I also used a 2" extension mirror to find the bolts. And it was a PITA!
i didnt pull the trans , just put it on the jack stands, bought a set of 1/4 inch long sockets ,7/32 was the size deep well , plus a 1/4 inch extension , and a screw driver that fits quarter inch sockets ,took the two bolts off pulled out the ign, coil placed the new one back on put the plug wires on it started right up no problem , then it quite on me again same problem , no fire in plug , it setr a while then it started up again , soo i unplugged the battery to reboot the computer , that worked then it did it again , **** im am soo pissed off at it any suggestions , couyld i bought a bad coil pack or is my computer the problem , car is a 88 cavaleir , 2.0 motor automatic thx guys , eric
found out i needed a ignition module , which is behind both coil packs , what a bitch to put on take off both cooil packs well after you disconnect battery , then unplug the ign module unhook the 3 plug ins located on the bottom , then reinstall, easier said than done 100 bucks in parts 3 hrs to do saved a little bit of money thx for your comments now back to my cammaro , funner later , eric
