The P0106 code indicates a problem in the MAP sensor area. Did you reconnect the MAP sensor connector after the plug change or seat it properly?
The P0128 code has to do with the coolant temperature not coming up to operating temp fast enough, this usually means the thermostat is stuck open.

My 2004 gmc envoy xuv sputters when driving it

Get codes read by auto parts store, and most do it for little or nothing.
the code(s) will give me a better idea of what may be happening.
Spark plugs could be worn out(anything over 80k miles)
Fuel regulator, injector(s), fuel pump also could be at fault.
one more a vacuum leak.
Don't be afraid to ask questions, and there aren't any dumb questions.
Codes don't give you the part to be replaced, but give you an area to test in.

Where are the spark plugs located in a 2004 GMC Envoy, 6 cyl

Hello erikkaloves,

The spark plugs are under the coils. To get to them you must remove the plastic cowling from the top of the engine. Then you will see the coils, there will be six coils, one for each cylinder each looks the same with an aluminum heat sink on the top. These are removed by removing and the retaining the screw and wires.

Once removed the spark plugs can be access but before you remove the spark plugs make sure the spark plug well is clear of foreign material. Dirt or debris in the spark plug well can fall into the engine and cause damage.

Regards,
netvan

2004 Ford Focus LX, was sputtering while driving

A flashing light is BAD. Its damaging the cat converter. I would check or replace the spark plug wires ( if all OK, then) replace the coil pack. I would not replace anything unless they test bad. but these car are known for bad coil packs.

You have 2 Problems, First problem batteries dying you have to make sure connections secure and alternator is charging your batteries (go to an Autozone or Discount advanced they will tell you). The Sputtering is either a bad SPARK PLUG or a damaged Cable going to the spark plug..Change them every 2 years.
