LOL get some NGK's platinums...... tools = 1/4" drive ratchet, flexy head if possible, a few extensions, spark plug socket. Remove the airbox on one side, then you can remove the coils from the plugs then, place spark plug socket on spark plug, then use your array of extensions to get a bit of angle up (if you have the flex head extensions thats even better) and you should be able to get the plugs out like that. On the other side remove your washer bottle and then do the same for coils and plugs as you did on the other side.. Genuine Subaru filters are over-rated, a Ryco or repco filter will do the exact same job. Most oil filters are same old same old now days. PFR6G - Platinum Plugs BKR6EIX - Iridium Plugs I just use the platinums, they work ... its good if you have a set of feeler gauges to gap the plugs appropriately before putting them in.. the platinums use a 0.8 gap

Will have to invest in a flexi head and spark plug socket,
When i did the plugs on my old car i used a mates tools

I bought a Ryco last time and it said it was for the B4, ended up being a completely different size from the genuine one, So i went to subaru and got a genuine one for 20 bucks

Cheers for the info

Long as the thread is the same its all good, different brands can have different sizes, the part that counts is the o-ring and the thread, has to screw all the way on and go tight (only by hand)

Use which ever you feel comfortable with if you have the subaru one you can use that this time then the ryco next time if its the right one

Tool definitions

You might have seen these before, but whether you did or not, this may just be what you need to find out the real purpose of some common tools.

Dremel tool:
A very useful tool for modelers which allows them to make more mistakes much faster, thereby turning $100 kits into spare parts and justifying the purchase of another $100 kit.

Skil saw:
A portable cutting tool used to make studs too short.

Pliers:
Used to round off bolt heads. Sometimes used in the creation of blood blisters. Pliers are the tool you use whenever the proper tool for the job has been borrowed. Teenagers excel in the use of this tool.

Belt sander:
An electric sanding tool commonly used to convert minor touch-ups into major refinishing jobs. Also useful for exfoliating knuckles.

Vise grips:
Generally used after pliers to completely finish rounding off bolt heads.

Oxyacetylene torch:
Used almost entirely for lighting various flammable objects in your shop on fire. Depending on your skill, it can be used to test if the fire department knows the way to your shop.

Whitworth sockets:
Once used for working on older British cars and motorcycles, they are now used mainly for impersonating that 9/16 or 1/2 inch socket you've been searching for the last 45 minutes.

Table saw:
A large stationary power tool commonly used to launch wood projectiles for testing wall integrity and medical coverage.

Hydraulic floor jack:
Used for lowering an automobile to the ground after you have installed your new brake shoes, trapping the jack handle firmly under the bumper.

Eight foot long yellow pine 2x4:
Used for levering an automobile upward off a trapped hydraulic jack handle.

Radial arm saw:
A large stationary power saw primarily used by most shops to scare neophytes into choosing another line of work.

Two-ton engine hoist:
A tool for testing the maximum tensile strength of everything you forgot to disconnect.

Craftsman 1/2 by 24 inch screwdriver:
A very large pry bar that inexplicably has an accurately machined screwdriver tip on the end opposite the handle.

Phillips screwdriver:
Normally used to stab vacuum seals under lids and for opening old-style paper-and-tin oil cans and splashing oil on your shirt; but can also be used, as the name implies, to strip out Phillips screw heads. Teenagers will attempt the use of a Phillips head after pliers fail to net result.

Straight screwdriver:
A tool for opening paint cans. Sometimes used to convert common slotted screws into nonremovable screws.

Hose cutter:
A tool used to make hoses too short.

Hammer:
Originally employed as a weapon of war, the hammer nowadays is used as a kind of divining rod to locate the most expensive objects adjacent to the object we are trying to hit. Also used as a replacement for screwdriver.
