Ask your Pontiac dealer, or Shucks/Kragen parts store.

OK are you ready? There is a solid engine strut mounted from the engine to a front mount. Get a coat hanger ready, remove the nut and bolts on the BOth sides of the mount and remove the strut. You will need a pry bar or something close to it to now pull the motor to the front of the car, engine will move a good 3 -4 inches. I think at this point yo will understand what the hanger is for, if you have help would nice for them to loop the hanger through the mount holes that you just moved to hold the engine forward. this will give you as much room as you can get. Good Luck to you. Dennis

no its not the width of a dime if ur factory stickers are present read the stickers under the hood it will be a white sticker with black lettering and it will have all kinds of info like engine size family numbers spark plug gap timing adjustment which is none cause the car is a coil pack car but most plugs u buy are already pre gapped i usually check the gap on one or two then just install them all but if u have a gapper and want to do them all i think the spec is like .035 or .040 of an inch

.055 fifty five thousanth of an inch. AC delco or Denso iridium spark plugs. You also should replace the plug wires at the same time. Trust me if you don't do wires next damp cold morning you will wake to misfire and burn out a cat converter. Supercharged or regular 3.8 liter engine.

under the hood...either on the radiator top support or on the hood itself...there will be a sticker which will give you the yr...engine size and the spark plug gap...it's a white sticker.
