I'm trying to tune up my 1987. I started on the right side, since it's hardest. Jacked it up, removed the wheel and the fender skirt. I got the first 3, #8, #6, and #4. I quit for the night at #2. How in the heck do I get that thing out? I'm stumped.
 
I just looked at my 87 to see what the problem you are
having as I did not remember removing anything when I
changed the plugs in mine. I am not sure what could
be in your way, any after market parts ? Could you post
a picture ?

No pic, I finally got it. I can get a pic if you really want to see. The stuff in the way is smog stuff. #8 was difficult. #6 a little easier, #4 was very tough, but #2 was almost impossible. I finally got an articulated 3/8" drive ratchet, a 3/4" socket, and put it over the end of the spark plug socket. *whew*
