Anyone know how to change spark plugs?

Could someone tell me where to find the spark plugs or give me a link to some good pictures or something. I have a misfire on cylander 4 I need to investigate.

Any tips on fixing misfireing cylanders are also welcome!!!

Re: Anyone know how to change spark plugs?

I'm assuming you have a 3.5L engine versus the 3800 since you can't find the spark plugs.

Here are a few helpful links:

Spark plugs are a good starting for random or specific misfire DTC error codes.

Re: Anyone know how to change spark plugs?

According to the factory manual, it says the front bank of cylinders are number 2 - 4 - 6 and the rear bank is 1 - 3 - 5. If it was my car the next thing I would do is swap coils 2 and 4 and see if the engine miss migrates to cylinder number 2. My guess would be the coil or the short connecting piece. If that doesn't do it I guess I would look at the injectors next. (At least #4 is on the front which will make it a little easier to work on).

The poster comptechbranden has a second post at this link:

http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...d.php?t=588204

comptechbranden, please keep a single post related to the same issue or otherwise all it will do is cause multiple and redundant answers and confusion.

BE COURTEOUS: AVOID DUPLICATE POSTS
Do not post the same discussion more than once on a discussion forum or on many forums. Duplicate discussions can be frustrating for other members, especially for those whose time and energy is limited. Weeding through the same discussion in multiple locations can be not only frustrating, but down right annoying. Duplicate discussions will be deleted. Reposting the same message repeatedly can be interpreted as SPAM and could result in the loss of your membership. Also be conscious of your fellow members and avoid making meaningless posts for the sole purpose of increasing your post count.
