i got the 3 front ones done those are easy. im having some trouble gettin the back three out since they're under the intake manifold, but i was able to get the left-most (passenger side) boot out, but im trying to get all 3 boots out before i change the plugs. did you guys do anything special to get the other two out? or was it just pure effort.

its good that i have mad skinny forearms so i can snake my arm underneath the manifold and i can reach all 3 of them its just that i cant pull them out cause my arm cant move at all and finger stregnth isnt enough to get the boots out. any ideas?

yes! i was able to do it!

a lot of the hoses near the firewall that are attached to the intake are quite flexible so i just kinda pushed my hand between them all and i was actually able to get a straight-on angle at the spark plugs. its a lot easier then i thought. i originally started by forcing my arm under the intake as well, but i just couldnt take the plugs out cause there was no room for movement.
