watchout for the spark plug closest to the firewall on the drivers side. You will never be able to get the coil and/or plug without breaking something. You will need a deep socket to pull that air tubing off.

All that and make sure you have the proper tools, a friend of mine busted his spark plug in there and it cost a fortune to get it out.

I've never damaged anything except for the screws that hold the coils in place. Use a socket for them and things will go smoothly.

Yeah, I removed mine with a phillips and they came right out. But one of the rubber boots is damaged. I need to know if anyone has a part # or something.
