SOURCE: Change Spark Plugs on 2002 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT V-6 (3.5)

First off, you don't have to remove the WHOLE INTAKE MANIFOLD. If you look closely, you'll see that the intake manifold is a two piece setup(Upper Intake, Lower Intake).

You will need a new gasket after removing it. Don't be cheap either, get one that is reusable.

First, remove the air intake from the restrictive airbox, then remove the bolts from the center portion of the intake not from the heads!!!(This is not a Chevy so the car's parts made on this intake is for people like us to work on)

After removing the "Upper" intake and everything else including any hoses, you may successfully remove the intake and lay it aside and guess what, you can replace spark plugs.

Replacing the front three is a no brainer so I'm not getting into that LOL. NOW, I HIGHLY suggest to go ahead and spend the extra $20.00 or $30.00-$35.00 if you was performance gains and better/longer performance usage, and get you some plug wires too. You only want to do this once (For a long time).
Do not use any other spark plug but an NGK brand, NOt an AC Delco although they call for it too, I wouldn't go with them. These stout V8 killer motors produced were specifically made for high performance.

SOURCE: How to change the spark plugs on a 2000 mitsubishi

front ones are simple you just pull the rubber boot off of it and screw it out. The ones on the back are a pain. you have to take the intake off to get to them. I would recommend a repair manual from an auto parts store.

Usually to reset the cars system computer, you can disconnect the positive battery lead from battery for a few minutes. This may also clear your radio station presets as well.

My 2001 mitsubishi eclipse gt stalls when i come to a stop. Runs great and does not stall when cold. will cleaning the throttle body fix this issue?

Air & Fuel Filter check, Check the gap on your spark plugs. Heat makes metal contract and the cold makes it expand
