The spark plugs are located on the top of the engine. You will see a spark plug wire going to each one. Remove one spark plug wire at a time so you don't mix them up. THEY MUST GO BACK TO THE SAME SPARK PLUG THEY ARE PRESENTLY ON. After you remove the wire, using a spark plug socket, loosten and remove the plug. Take the new one and before reinstalling it, make sure it is properly gapped. WHen you get the new plugs, ask the parts store what the gap should be and you will need a tool to gap them. If you go to an auto zone or the like, they have them for a buck.

After it is gapped, replace the plug and plug wire, and continue to the next one.

If you have trouble or questions, let me know.
