Changing Spark Plugs
can some one Tell me the procedures to change the spark plugs in the car and what kinda to use... i want to change them because i dont know the last time they were changed
It's all in the FSM, but if you're going stock plugs, then you'll need 2 x NGK bur7eq and 2 x NGK bur9eq.
It's easier to change the plugs from the bottom of the car if that helps.

Check the stickies at the top of this section under 'S' for spark plugs. If your still pretty stock, I'd stay with the NGKs and stock heat ranges. Depending on mods, some here run a bit colder plug. Personally I put my car up in the air and changed them from the bottom without too much problem. Just be sure to use little anti-seize.
Lots of good info in those stickies.

You shouldn't need to take anything apart either way, just reach down there and pull off the plug wires, then unscrew them. It's about as basic as it gets, you'll be able to figure it out if you just start doing it.

Regardless which way, shouldn't take longer than 20-30 minutes or so.NGK Brand (Advanced Autoparts sells for $6.77 a pop)

BUR9EQP x2

Asking questions like that make me want to say “take it to your mechanic” if not you’ll be in the middle of it and run into a problem and not know what to do.
BTW the auto parts place can look our car up in the computer if you get there and can’t remember the plug #’s

Don't forget to wash your hands and clean up your garage when you're done.
