    where the plastic plug attaches to the coil, just push in on the rectangular end....in the picture the opposite side from where the wires are on the plug, push in there and pull up on the plug, it doesnt take brute force, one handed operation, may have to lightly wiggle back and forth(thats what she said)

    the bleach kills it but it does no good cause it keeps getting wet......and no ill just spray some air freshener in it and sell it before i tear the dash out.

    Mine is pretty broken in....It has 133k on it. I was just curious how often people here did tune ups... My first car I did it every 3 months. My last car I did once a year.
