I have a 95 taurus, 6 cylinder engine. The engine is side mounted, and I want to change the plugs and wires. the front plugs have some plastic pieces which are easily removed to get access, but the back plugs are hard to get to. Do I have to get them from underneath, or do I need to do something else to get access to them? ---

You may need a combination of extensions and a u-joint. It ain’t pretty. ---

To get at the rear spark plugs requires removal of the upper air intake plenum. Tester ---
