This operation is NOT for the faint of heart, mechanically speaking. It is a challenge even for an experienced technician. You will have to remove the intake manifold as the spark plug holes are buried underneath it. You will need to replace the metallic manifold gasket as part of this operation.
To get the manifold off you may have to remove part of the cooling system (there is a metal pipe that runs from the thermostat area down the length of the intake manifold valley for example).
When I did mine it was discovered that the water pump was leaking coolant out of it's weephole, so check that out too as the time to replace it is when you have the engine all torn down for the plugs issue.
If you do replace the water pump then replace the backing plate as well and you should consider replacing the timing belt and idler pulleys/bearings at the same time.
TIP: take lots of pictures (with a digital camera) as it comes apart to reference each electrical connector and mark each bolt and hole to get them back where they belong. Remember that when working with any casting the fit must be perfect before any bolts are tightened and that the bolts must be increasingly torqued in a repeated pattern to keep from cracking the casting.
