I need to replace the spark plugs on a 2001 Grand Prix. It has the 3.1L engine. I cannot get to the back three, and I was wondering if there is some simple way to get to them.

The engine has a "wishbone" connected from the front of the engine to the frame. If you take one or both of the bolts out of this connector you will be able to shift the engine forward enough to get your arm behind the engine, and get the plugs changed. Do not forget to replace the connector as this may cause damage when running the engine.
