Default spark plugs

Do you have to remove the fuel rail to change them cause thats what it looks like, or is there another way to get the coil packs out?

What kind of tech is your friend, cause I've NEVER had to remove anything
but the coils themselves. Just be carefull when you pull out the coils.
With a little patience and some fenagaling they come out easy. Took me about
30 mnts. Like I said just be carefull and be patient.

yeah.... im a ford tech. Tell youre buddy to go back to school. lol. You dont have to remove youre fuel rails. lol HAHAHAHAH.... Just remove the bolt holding them down, pull out and then bend. They are rubber and flimsy. Very easy job. Can be done between 15-45 minutes depending on what you use to do them.

You definitely don't need to remove the fuel rail. I would use NGK's.

Don't remove the fuel rails, just a swivel, extension and you'll be fine.
