I tried to change the spark plugs on a 1995 maxima 6 cyl. They have a metal cover with two screws, which are easy enough to take off. Then there is also an orange plastic cap covering the plug. How do you disconnect the wire and then take the plastic cap off? Is there a special tool required? Once off will I be able to reach the plug? Any tricks to avoid breaking these pieces? Thanks T

all you need is skocket with extension for spark plugs allen wrench to take off cover on front back and screw driver to take off the coils. The coil wire should pull off once you push in on the button ontop of the coil

 

They should just be squeeze and pull if I remember correctly.

 

There's no button on top of the coils...

 

i ment like a plastic clip or what eber you want to call it but it disconnects the wires from the coil
