How do you get the plugs out with the limited space to firewall, special tools, loosing motor mounts what else help!!! They quote 3.5hrs at $350 albsolutely insane,design.D.
Since it is a horizontally opposed four cylinder engine, the spark plugs are basically installed the same way (horizontal to the ground, in line with the pistons) Two are on the left, two are on the right. The coilpacks replace the conventional spark plug wires. You will need to remove the coilpacks to access the spark plugs. You will also have to remove the intake airbox to reach the left two spark plugs, and you will have to remove the windshield washer fluid reservoir to reach the other plugs. This is very time consuming... the right tools make it much easier. Make sure you get the oem replacements, otherwise your car may not run well.
