Default 02 ES 300 Plug Removal

Not used to cars w/o the plug wires. I believe these have the coil over the plug design. Can anyone explain how to pull out the plugs?

Believe it or not, I'm quite handy around a car. Did an engine swap on my hobby car, and lots of other maintenance on my other Hondas (brake pads, rotors, replaced calipers, replaced radiator)....

You will need a 1/4 drive rachet and a 10 mm socket to remove the bolts that hold the coil pack. You can sneak your hand under the intake,but it will be really tight. After remove the coil pack you will need a swivel spark plug socket and to more extension with another swivel adapter between those two extension. It really hard to explain on how to DIY,but it can be done without removing the intake.
