Stickies update??!! Spark Plugs & Fuel Filter

First, please change the fuel filter write up to:
http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?p=2984783
The one that is currently listed has no pics.

Second,
The link for the how to on the Spark Plug change for the 2000 does not work.
Is there another write up somewhere?

Why, is it because they might fall into the cylinders?

What is the potential problem you are trying to get at? Is it the bolts suck or just becareful since the ignition coils could fall in the cylinder...

How careful should i be?
