spark plug replacement
While doing all the work to replace the lower valve cover gaskets I thought as long as I'm in there, I'll change the spark plugs. Any suggestions on how to get in there to do that for cylinder 6.....right bank toward the front of the car. It's under the power steering pump.
The engine tin leaves an opening to see the spark plug boot from underneath, but after breaking the boot free, unable to get it out to access the spark plug. Not sure a partial engine drop would work. How about unbolting the power steering pump to raise it up a bit without disconnecting any p/s hoses to get a hand in there?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I did it without removing PS pump or dropping engine, but it was a bit of a pain. If you have original plug wires, you should be able to unscrew the boot end I think.
