never done it before myself but doesn't look to difficult, just make sure you dont do any damage inside the heads while levering the rocker arms

sparks plugs are are quite easy to replace, front bank should take no longer than 5-10 mins but unfortunately changing the plugs on the rear bank is a little trickier as the intake manifold must come out, its not really difficult just time consuming ... heres a guide on removing the intake manifold

getting to the spark plugs on the front bank is very simple, undo the 6 10mm bolts holding on the mitsubishi plate and pull out the leads

having a spark plug socket will help other wise you will need an imperial deep socket set

just a heads up for the timing belt though, it is an absolute biatch to do while the engine is in... ben gave me a small right up when i was doing mine but cant seem to find it ...

good luck

Dude use the seach function and also have you looked in the DIY section?

well I found the thread new I saw it some where but its still a lot of work and I don't think I could pull my engine apart and put it back together in time I have 4 days off at a time so if some one wants to come help out of the goodness of your heart feel free to or if u want to earn some pocket money let us no how much it would cost , please don't say u will help if you don't no exactly what your doin last thing I want is to stuff my car

wow 4days i think u might be able to do it in that time.
have a really good read through the Diy so u have a good idea what your doing before hand.
Nd i did all of mine nd it was pretty easy 2-3 hours work.
