First I removed my 3.6 engine cover, and unplugged battery cables...
Second, I remove air filter coupler, all vaccum hoses, brackets and bolts, easy to do. Most, if not all were 10mm and 13mm sockets...
Third, *to remove the bolt on the intake in the back passenger side, I found it easiest to remove the cabin air filter cover, then removed the plastic tray bolted to the fire wall. 2 nuts, 1 screw, and its off...
Still Third, and its off, once off, the bolt is easy to remove and pull out...
Fourth, once all the hoses brackets and bolts are off the upper intake should pull right off (slowly) exposing all coil over plugs...
Fifth, in order to remove the coil over plugs I used a flat head screw driver to pop out the lock on the side, loosened the screw that holds then down and they pulled right out...(slowly)
Still fifth, coil over plug removed...
Sixth, I then replaced the spark plug (Autolite double platinum part: APP 5263) and reinserted the coil over plug and proceeded with the other five S plugs. An extension and 3/8th spark plug socket helps ; )...
Once I replaced all my spark plugs and coil overs I cleaned up, replaced the upper intake , hoses, brackets and bolts, cabin air fitler covers... and re hooked up my battery... Just some pics to help those thinking about doing so they dont feel its hard to do...
