Not amazingly hard. Depends on access really. A hook type tool will help. Just make a hole in it and pull it out. Emery the edges on the engine to get them as clean as poss. Then put some "blue" on the new plug. Get a socket thats EXACTLY the same size and hit that to GENTLY drive it into the block.

its the front ones . im going to remove the manifold and what you have said will realy help, im going to change them all while im there, but havent changed any before, one has started to leak, ive been told its due to the engine having no coolant in it for 10 months recently, ???????

cheers rich.
