so many help videos, so say torque others not. About to do rear diff gasket replacement and spark plugs( after I figure out how much engine needs to be removed to get to fourth plug on my 97 2.5!) so whats the consensus?

I find it easier to remove the right front fender to change the plugs. :risas3: Kidding ... I replaced the fenders and did a few other things while I was at it.so many help videos, so say torque others not.

yes number oneAre you talking about the plug all the way at the front of the engine? Just for clarification, that's the #1 plug.
Regardless, a swivel attachment for the spark plug socket will help tremendously in getting into tight places. And you'll probably end up using it in other places as well.
No you don't, it is definitely possible to replace the #1 spark plug without removing the a/c compressor. I had the same issue with my '97 TJ but all it took was a wobble-joint between the spark plug socket and 3/8" extension to snake the socket in under the compressor and remove the plug. I did that at least 2-3 times over the years I owned that Jeep.so it looks like I need to remove AC compressor to access plug #1 on my Jeep.
