    Anyone changed the spark plugs on an 05 Chrysler Hemi 300C?

    How much of a job is it. They say torquing correctly is essential.

    Not hard at all, and yes like anything you don't want to leave the plugs to
    loose or overtighten them.

    OT , Glenn , do you know where i can see a photo of Dodge Stratus
    2400cc engine crank pulley and cam gear ?
    Trying to figure how much clearance between the pulley
    and gear , or is pullley designed to compress gear a bit ?

    Im curious .... does 300C have long tubes that plug drops down into ?
    i see many newer engines have these . Hard to clean !
    My 2000 Toy 2700cc had them . I dump gas in the hole
    and blew out with shop air , but you always fear there's something
    that will drop down in the hole and enter cylinder as you pull the
    plug out !
    Long ago , buddy of mine destroyed RX7 engine . All he did was
    change plugs , but a bit of carbon dropped into the engine and
    bit off large pieces of the aluminum matric apex seals .
    Fortunately , common engines can tolerate lots of carbon breaking
    off and bouncing out the exhaust pipe . Water injection can remove
    carbon from cylinders ...

    NEW engines? Those were used on the 1950s Hemis, and again in the 60's
    on the 426 Hemi. The slant-6 also had little short ones, not nearly as long.

    The timing belt crank gear bottoms out on the crankshaft and the
    harmonic/pulley bottoms out on the timing belt gear
