Unscrew bolt holding each coil. Pull each coil out. Change spark plugs. Put coils back on. You're done.

To access the rear bank, you will need a universal joint for your ratchet, and I also suggest a magnetic pick-up tool to pull the plugs out.

Download the 2000 owners manual; the instructions are in there, straight from the FSM. By 2001 they removed them from the owners manual.
