Default '92' Ignition Wires

I have a 92 and would like to replace the ignition wires. The drivers side looks almost impossible without removing the AC compressor. Does anyone have any shortcuts or am I in for a 12 hour job?? The PS looks a little easier. Where do I begin? The cooler is already packed and I bought a new box of bandaids so I am ready. Any feedback would help. Thanks. :confused: :smash:

Check the archives on this. Many suggestions.

I don't know how close my '95 is to your 92, but I moved the A/C, the alternator, and loosened the power steering pump. In addition, the big thing for me was to remover the tensioner to get to the opti.

Passenger side was easy.

Use a piece of hose to remove and install the plugs if you are doing that also. This was suggested by someone in the archives and saved me a ton of frustration. :cheers:

Ah... changing plugs on an LT1 Vette. Yep, I haven't had that much fun since the time I set my hair on fire and beat it out with a hammer.

Hey now, I changed my plugs today in a mere hour and could have done the wires in another 30 minutes. Of course I've got long tubes......

Best advice for changing plugs and wires is to install headers, then it's cake. :jester
