Spark plugs at rear
 

Hi everyone,

I am bit confused how to replace the spark plugs on my Camry 1997 xle V6. The 3 on the front are obvious, however how on Earth does one find and replace the other 3. I took a picture from under my car hood(sorry had to resize to meet spec at the forum). Please someone point out the 3 missing spark plugs and how can I replace them.

As would be obvious from my post, I am not too much into car repair, but I would not want to pay $100 for changing $20 spark plugs. And I would like to know how to do it myself so I can help my friends someday.

Thank you

This is a common question. A Google search on this question will result in many hits.

One method is to remove the intake manifold. See link:

Toyota Camry Forum - How can I replace the spark plugs on this car? - CarGurus

Or

Many have been successful by using a combination of socket extensions, swivels, etc.

There is also a tool marketed that will take the place of the combination of sockets, extensions, etc.
