Two things I did first were to remove the pretty plastic on the top of the motor and then loosen the throttle cable holds on the back of the motor. From there., it was business as usual. This jobs books out at a little over 1 hour of labor but I didn't keep track. Of course I have been changing spark plugs for 30 years, so no job it too difficult....--Mike

you've got some wiring and throttle cables to move out of the way first. take a look just past your intake manifold toward the firewall...you will need a socket extension to get down to the plugs and coilpacks.

whatever you do, don't "gap or regap your plugs" just purchase a new one if you damage one of the new ones.
