Remove intake manifold cover (three 10mm, tow cop nuts one bolt).
Drivers side, remove throttle body (four Allen head screws), disconnect associated hoses and wiring connections. Remove coil bolt, disconnect coil wiring connector on 4,5,6 plugs. Remove plug with a magnetized spark plug socket and a 12" extension. Lubricate threads on new plugs with antisieze. Clean spark plug boot on coil with contact cleaner and compressed air, apply silicon dielectric to boot and contact spring in coil boot body. Install plugs( torque 14 to 21 ft-lbs) and coils. Clean throttle body with carb cleaner and toothbrush, @ 100,000 miles mine was very dirty. Reinstall throttle body. Passenger side remove wire harness brackets
(four 10 mm bolts) that cover up access to coils for 1,2,3 plugs. Peel back harness to get access, repeat steps for plug remove install. My dealer wanted $300.00 for plug replacement. I spent 4 hours on this but I was deliberate and cleaned and lubed as I went. Also the cleaning of the throttle body is going to save me sticking of the throttle plate down the road something the dealer would have charged another $75.00 if he would have even asked if you wanted it done. Difficulty level low, take your time. I did by a 9.00 dollar set of large metric Allen wrenches and the plugs were $40.00.
The spark plugs in a 2000 Nissan Pathfinder should be changed every 100,000 miles. This is a suggestion done by the manufacturer which is Nissan Automobile Company.

You can find the spark plugs for your 2002 Nissan Pathfinder on each side of the engine. The spark plugs will be near the top of the engine. A six-cylinder engine will have three spark plugs on each side.
