I am needing to replace the spark plugs in my Taurus. The diagnostic came back as a P0302 (Cylinder 2 misfire). I don't believe that I have had the plugs replaced in quite some time, so I am sure it is needed. Is this the best place to start? And if so, how do I go about getting to plugs 1,2, and 3? Thanks

#2 is by the firewall
and its depend on what engine you have some require removing the upper intake manifold to gain access the #2and 3 plugs

I would start by checking if the coil firing them cylinders and if not suspect a bad coil
if firing and all OK replace spark plugs and check the wires if applies


good luck
