Spark Plug Removal??????
#4
If yours has coil on plug you will have a coil over each spark plug. In the pic below the 3 'boxes' at the bottom of the pic on the valve cover are the coil packs. The other side of the engine will be the same way.
Two screws hold each coil pack on. Remove them and pull the coil pack off. The rubber boots can stick to the plugs and be really difficult to remove without tearing them. Some patience and possibly some penetrating oil can free them up usually. Do one coil and plug at a time so you dont mix up the coils.
Once the coil is off its a matter of using a spark plug socket, extension, and ratchet to remove the old plug and put in the new one. Take care when putting the new one in. The heads are aluminum and can strip easily if you over torque them. I also use some anti seize on the threads to keep them from sticking the next time I need to take them out.

If its just the blower not working but the ac compressor still works the common problem is the blower motor resistor pack. Not unusual for those to burn out. Its mounted to the side of the evaporator coil box. Remove the glove box and you should see it right there. I've never replaced one so cant tell you exactly what it looks like.

I got both off ebay. The brush guard was from someplace with an ebay store so it was new. Cost $189 shipped which is the cheapest I ever found. Had to buy new mounting bolts though, the ones that came with it were too small and weak for me. I upgraded to 1/2" grade 8 bolts. The headlight/taillight blackouts I got used for $10 for the set plus shipping. A little scratched up but not a big deal. JC Whitney sells them for $65 a pair.
