Default I finaly got one!

Hello I resently got a 1989 Camaro RS 5.0V8 TBI 5Speed with 85K miles on it. The body looks like new and its all stock sept for the rims/tires and the radio but I've ran into a few bugs. It seems to spit this black stuff out of the tail pipe and I just found out that the plugs are the stock plugs so are the wires. The driver door seems to hang a little lose. So what I really need to know ATM is

How do I get to ALL the plugs w/o breaking my arm And what on earth is the junk comeing out the pipe

(You wont belive how bad the plugs are[:@])

Find some one with long skinny arms to help with the plugs, and the crap in the exhaust could be anything, from unburned fuel, oil, or even dead mice that at one time lived in the muffler.

ugh nvm
what?

Plugs are fairly easy to get to, you might need a deep well socket. New ones can be got at any parts store. Might want to change all the filters and oil while you are at it. All that should take about 2 beers and 1.5 hours.

I would say it was a good price.
check www.classicindustries.com for the parts.
