Default Spark Plugs

I have always worked rear wheel drive cars and never had to deal with changing the plugs on a horizontally mounted motor. How hard is it to change the spark plugs on these cars?




Thanks,
Steven

Fronts are a piece of cake, and the rears, aren't bad if you rotate your engine forward by removing the upper mounts, putting it in neutral, and rolling the car back and chocking the tires. HOWEVER, how many miles you got on it? You should be able to get 80-100,000 miles on your plugs before they get bad, if then. They just don't wear out. Coil packs will go out before the plugs, in my experience.

Plugs are still good I was just looking around the engine bay and those back plugs look crazy hard to get to.

Definately the best way.
