not on a 2.2, they are actually pretty easy to get to on the earlier designs. once they went to the DOHC design of the 2.2/2.5/3.0 they became a little harder to get to, but still not too bad. if you have issues with getting the right length extension to bite onto the socket, simply remove the two engine mount studs and raise it up a wee bit.

**edit, i am a moron that didnt read the year. yeah, they are gonna be fun for ya!**
