Take the starter off and go from under the car to get the back two I think it was easier to get the front too form under also

I didn't take my starter off, but also got the front 2 from the top and the back 2 from underneath. I did have my laternator off, though, and if I recall, that made getting the front one a little easier...still a tight squeeze, but doable.

If the nuts aren't too rusty, I'd suggest pulling the pass side portion of the "Y" pipe down. This will allow EASY access to 3 of the 4 plugs on that side. #2 plug, the one at the front of the head is still a little difficult, primarily since you can't really see it, but it is accessable with a 3/8 drive plug socket and a "stubby" extension on a 3/8 ratchet.
