As far as getting to the plugs, a lift is by far the easiest way to get to them. Removing the alternator is a little extra work, but makes the #1 plug easier to do.
You might want to have someone with good knowledge of that car look at it if replacing the plugs doesn't work for you. It could have several other problems other than the opti-spark. They cost alot of money to just throw one on it without knowing for sure. It ould be fuel pressure related or a sensor problem of some sort. That being a 93 you can rule out MAF sensor at least.
