Can someone with mechanical smarts tell me how to replace the spark plugs, wire and rotars on a Eagle Vision TSI, 3.5, 24 valve 1994 car?

I did not see the plugs when I lifted the hood. As you can tell I am a non mechanic looking for your great advice.

Thanks!

if you look in between your intake manifold, the 3 wires on each side of the manifold, that's where the spark plugs are at. You'll need a 5/8" plug wire socket, a long extension (preferably over 6") and a 3/8" ratchet. Take them out and use the extension and plug socket to start the threads. Be careful in doing this, you don't want to cross-thread the plugs, real easy to do on an aluminum head. Make sure you put an adhesive on the spark plugs called anti-seize, it prevents the threads of the spark plug from cold-welding itself into the cylinder head. The spark plug wires are attached to a coil pack on the back of the motor; since you are inexperienced, take each wire off on at a time and compare the length of the new wire to the old wire and to avoid crossing wires. You don't have to worry about a rotor or distributor cap, this car doesn't have one. As long as you follow this simple process, you can do a minor tune-up on your car for less than nothing.
