To replace the spark plugs on a Ford Escape, open the hood and remove some components in the engine bay, such as the air filter box. This will allow you to detach the plastic panel on top of the engine block, so you can disconnect the connectors attached to the coils underneath.

Once the coils are free, you can pull them out of their housing to access the spark plugs below, which need to be removed with a socket wrench.

After replacing the spark plugs, reinstall all the components that were removed.
