ignition coils

I tried looking thru the how to's and what not, maybe I missed it, but is there step by step instructions on how to replace them, and is it difficult???? Any help is appreciated.

2 screws per coil pack. 8mm , unplug and pull out . Real easy. As easy as putting gas in your max!

Maybe not that easy, but it is easy. More like putting a picture on the wall.

The three front coils are behind the engine plate.
The other three are by the firewall. #5 is more challenging to replace. The one by the throttle. Take off the two bolts that hold a metal plate that is right above it. That will give you enough room.

You'll need a hex key to get off the engine cover. Push the electrical harness in on the green tab. It will click when it is released. Then take off the two bolts that hold the coil. Tada! Done

Good Luck
