I do most of the repair in my car; since many years. my question is:
which is the best way to gain access the spark plugs located behind the engine?
Thanks for your attention

Try removing the air intake snorkel and see if you have enough room to maneuver your arm behind. Most of your work for the plugs this way will be by touch.

If not, jack the car up and go at them from underneath with a long ratchet/extension and a u-joint.
