Re: {Chrysler 300} Spark Plug Removal

[Nick Taylor <nicksgaragesd@xxxxxxxxx>]

The "access panels" weren't actually designed to make it easier to service the engine. They facilitated dropping the front clip onto the car on the assembly line so that it would clear the carburetors. As others have pointed out, they don't really help all that much. A lift is much better but not everyone has one.

On my ram 300K, someone in the past cut as section out of the driver side inner fender. I would assume it was to access the steering. The previous owner tacked the piece back on. He did end up selling the access panels a couple weeks ago to someone putting rams in a '60 DeSoto.

The access panels are much smaller on the short wheelbase cars and I've yet to work on to try and change the plugs. Seems like the driver side should be pretty easy with the header going down the way it does.

Good Afternoon All:

Crazy question.  Do you have to remove the front tires to change the spark plugs on 1960 300F 413?  Just checking before I tackle this.

Thanks.
