I have a 2000 Kia Sportage, 4cyl. 2.0 liter, 5 spd. manual. I need to know where the spark plugs are and how to get to them.

easy. remove the large black engine cover. you'll see a pipe running from the air cleaner over the top of the engine. you'll have to remove it and then you'll have access to a black plastic cover in center of engine. remove cover and you'll see the coil packs with a couple of plug wires. unbolt the coil packs and remove the plug wires and then the plugs are in the holes that you pulled the wires out of. antiseize the threads on the new plugs and dielectric grease the wires and reassemble in the reverse of taking apart. good luck
