2001 Ford Espace spark plug replacement

Can someone please help me in changing my spark plugs on a 2001 Ford Escape. I can get to the three front one, but getting to the rear ones is the tricky part. Let me know if there is an easy way at doing it. Thanks.

you have to either take off the intake manifold or take out the windshield cowl.

I can't get the manifold off. I have taken out all of the bolts and it still won't come off. Any suggestions??

Pry it. They'll usually be on there pretty tight due to gaskets and such. And be prepared to buy new intake manifold gaskets. Lastly make sure you got ALL the bolts loose. There's always the hidden bolt.

*edit* make that "lastly" first.
