This is how I did it on my 1996 with a 5.2 engine. Yours could be different.

1. Remove the belt by turning the tensioner clockwise with a 15mm ratchet.
2. Remove the battery hold down and battery
3. Remove alternator wiring and AC sensor wire
4. Remove dipstick hold down bolt (to get to middle 14mm nut)
5. Remove 12mm nuts (2 - top and bottom) and ground wires
6. Remove tensioner mounting bracket (3 - 14mm nuts)
6. Remove coil wires
7. Remove coil / coil mounting bracket and tensioner / tensioner mounting bracket
8. Installation is reversal of this procedure.
