how do you change spark plugs on nissan maxima?

Aug 14, 2007 by al m | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs

japanese V6 engines seem so complicated. I am not experienced with repairs, but I would like to learn how to do a basic tune up on my first car. the front sparkplugs seem to have easy access, but how do you reach the back 3 to replace the spark-plugs??

Long time since i did mine and owned an a32 maxima, and believe i had the same trouble and had to remove a few pipes etc.
Have you tried on the http://maxima.org/ free forum for exact advice.I bet even if you joined and did a search on there it
