Still best blades out there.

Bought a set of RAINX blades a couple of months ago. They work well, but already making noise.

I agree. I use them on every vehicle. I went with 26 and 22 inch blades and the passenger side lifts off the curve of the glass until about midway into its stroke. Will try a 21 inch next time.

Smart man! I did that for 2 tank fulls and at 113k broke exactly zero plugs. I also warmed up the engine to full temp, then started pulling stuff, negative battery cable, pcm, etc.

I will do the same. I also ordered some arokroil penetrating oil to soak over night.

I highly recommend you attack it from inside -- Seafoam or Techron through the fuel for a tank. If you're doing the change tomorrow, do the seafoam treatment through the vacuum system. The PB or Kroil may help as well, but ya gotten get the carbon cleaned up as best you can if your at risk for breakage.
