the coil packs are right next to every injector... they look like black cylinders... the plugs lie right under them

the pink thing is your fuel injector, its like a 7mm to get the top screws out if i remember, and use 5/8 spark plug socket with swivel head and extension. use a little antisieze and dont overtighten, dont mess with your fuel rail, its not in the way.

you might have to remove your fuel rail on the passenger side, when you put it back together make sure there is an o-ring on every injector, the person that was helping me do one side while I was doing the other didn't realize the o-ring fell off and when I turned my car on gas poured everywhere.

Yeah I have never had to take off the fuel injector. Just the intake tube, easy job expecially compared to ohv engines. Don't get me started on an LS1 or even the explorer 5.0

i'm using the motorcraft platinum plugs they seem to be workin pretty good for me.. well then again i'm still using the motorcraft synthetic blend as well.. soo.. newayz.. if u dont have any good fancy swivel tools and all, u might have to take that damn fuel rail off.. i took both of mine off, cleaned up the injectors while i had them out too.. i even had to take my TB off jus to get to those 'easy' to reach spark plugs.. lol.. oh well atleast i got them done and over with now

wow guys now im confused haha. OK fuel rail? Is that the Chrome Bar that is holding everything down?

Also under that Chrome Bar there is a big black cap there are 4 of those on each side. next to the Black caps there are then Pink little tops with Wires going into them. Why are there wires going into the Pink Top. Aren't those the Spark Plug? I know wires connect to the spark plug but ive never seen them that way before.

yes.. that would be the fuel rail. those would be your fuel injectors your talking about not your plugs.
wires don't connect to your plugs. you have coil packs meaning that you don't have spark plug wires.
