Anyone done a wlch plug in an L Series in car without engine removal?

Thinking maybe just raise engine off mounts may help. Curious to know how much force neede to get buggers out and back in again and if body work a hindrance

Ta.

Depends on where they are on the head.

I remember there being one or two on the head in the cam box somewhere and I think one on the back of the engine.

The hardest part will be getting enough leverage to get them out, then having room for a hammer to tap them back in... My thoughts anyway.
