    1968 Mustang and Torino GT with 390 engine recommended "disconnecting the motor mount lifting the engine" to allow clearance for changing plugs. Lots of wheel wells cut and sheet metal panels screwed back on rather than lift the engine.

    My daughter recently had an alternator go out on her V6 Ford Escape - Put car on lift,remove passenger wheel/tire, remove lower shroud. Highly recommend to change the serpentine belt as well while one is "in the neighborhood"..

    On the other hand - I had a 1962 Chevy pickup with a straight six that I could take a cooler and a picnic basket with when I sat on the inner fenderwells and changed the plugs!
