I just replaced the coil in my 97 catera . its a real pain as it is not very accessible. It is mounted on the back of the engine block between the firewall and the engine. I removed the wiring conduit that runs across the top of the plugs, then using an 8mm - 5 point socket to remove the 4 mounting bolts on the coil . They are hard to reach and you will have to feel your way through it. you may want to remove the spark plug wires first as it makes it easier to access. Then unplug the feed wire which is a plug in attached to the end of the coil. If you want to see what you are doing you can remove the wipers. Then remove the cowl that extends from the window to the firewall. It is not hard to do this and you will have a bit more room to swing a wrench.
