Im wondering how to change spark plugs on 1994 camaro v6.
 
I have a 1994 Camaro V6 3.4L Car. I bought spark plugs. But It looks like they are hard to get at. It looks like I might be able to do the right side but Im not sure If those are really even assessable. Is there a way I change these spark plugs on this car or a website that shows how because they cant be done from standing up maybe they have to be changed when I crawl under the car Idk then.

There's a sticky in the v6 section called FAQ and mods or something along those terms. Anyways in that sticky there's a right up or you can do it the way you think it needs to be done. Jack your car up. Put on jack stands in proper jack stand spots. Slid under the car and get the ones you can't do from uptop. You'll need gloves and a lot of patience. Also go one wire at a time so you don't switch them around and cause problems.

That sticky Is for a 3.8 mine Is a 3.4 Im sure they are different and the Instructions wont be the same then.

there pretty easy to get to go from the top and stick your arm in towards the front of the motor and reach back imo the 3.4 is the easiest to change plugs and wires on... you did get wires right

all u need is a swivel socket and a small extension with your ratchet. i have the same car, did all my plugs and wires in less than 30 minutes. just takes a little to figure out how you need to position your swivel setup to get to the plugs. i took the swivel socket and left the ratchet off until i got it on the plug then hooked the ratchet on and away you go. its pretty straight forward

I didnt get wires why would I need to replace the wires for simply replacing the plugs when the wires seem to be working fine.

Because over time the wire strand wears out. It's like saying why change the oil when it's working fine. You do it for preventative maintenance to prolong the life of your engine and performance. When you replace plugs is a good idea to replace the wires at the sametime. When replacing wires get 8 mm wires. They provide a stronger spark and last longer.

Can I Just change the plugs because I dont have a extra hundred bucks for a wire set.

Wires are only like 35$
