I'm going to change my spark plugs and was wondering, after I take off the nut on the coil pack does the coil pack just come off or does it clip on the plug like a regular set of wires, also should I disconnect the coils electrical connection or will I be able to leave it connected and move it to the side to get to the plugs. Thanks for any help

Remove the coil pack by unplugging the wires, after unbolting it, and then pulling it straight up, little resistance but pull steady and it will come out. You can remove without unhooking but its better to unplug them so as not to put undue stress on the wires.

Exactly! I found out about the wires during the first plug. It's just way easier to take the wires off. (Just changed mine for the 1st time this past weekend)

Did the plugs everything went smooth. I assume the previous owner never changed them, they were in really bad shape. I'm thinking that I should get better gas mileage now, although I didn't think it did to bad with the old plugs. Thanks for the help and advice
