For those that have done it before how hard is it to get a socket into each of the 8 holes? I don't see anyone that has a video on this. I have done many plug changes over the years between Cars, Jet Ski and boats. Just curious how tight and what tools people recommend. The boat is 1200 miles away and was just winterized so it is a spring project once it is in the water.

Thanks Bill

It’s not hard at all. The Volvo style manifolds & even the Barr Marine aftermarket versions allow enough room for easy access.

You’re welcome. Been changing plugs doing tune ups etc since 1972. First one I learned on was a ‘72 Chevy Impala 350 cu in V8 which is basically the same thing!
