2004 Mazda 6S Spark Plug replacement help - Mazda 6 Forums : Mazda 6 / Mazda Atenza Forum

Hi Guys,
I've replaced my front 3 spark plugs easily.
Now on to the rear.
I am having the most trouble with the single right hand most (when facing the car) black clip that holds the wire harness to the IM. I am talking about the black molded piece all the way on the right. I've got everything else off..this is holding me back.
Any tips/tricks would be appreciated.
Thanks

Try using a flathead screwdriver to separate the front part of the box that's facing you from the main body. Then pull the box up and out.

Mine ('05) was simply a Christmas tree plug that I pushed out with a screwdriver. Others were tab that I un-clipped.

Oh, and CLEAN YOUR FREAKIN' ENGINE!
