Want to change spark plug on Kawasaki Prairie 360,I can see it and remove the wire but can't get a socket onto the plug itself.Do I have to remove the front fender to get at the plug??

all the info you need ----------- https://www.manualslib.com/manual/836292/Kawasaki-Prairie-360-4-4.html

1. • 1 Cool the engine before attempting to remove any spark plugs.
     
   • 2 Remove the spark plug wires located across the top of the Eclipse model's engine. The spark plug wires connected to the spark plugs are the flat circular ends. Grab the wire around the circle and twist to unlock the wire. Lift up on the wire to remove it from the engine. Some models with ignition coils above the spark plug may require you to unhook the wire from the ignition coil to remove the wire.
     
   • 3 Drop the socket with the extension and socket wrench attached into the cylinder well and on top of the spark plug. Turn the socket wrench to unscrew and pull the spark plug out of the engine.
     
   • 4 Spray silicone spray into the cylinder well and onto the new spark plug threads.
     
   • 5 Insert the new spark plug into the socket with the threads sticking out. Slide the socket into the cylinder well and gently turn the wrench to the right to thread the spark plug into the cylinder head.
     
   • 6 Use the tension tool to test the tension or torque of the new spark plug. Set the tension to the specifications listed on the spark plug package.
     
   • 7 Reattach the spark plug wire to the new spark plug.
     
   • 8 Continue this process with the other spark plugs. Be sure to only complete one spark plug replacement at a time.
     

I found this solution and will not take credit for it, I had the same problem. To change the spark plugs on a 2000 Kia Sephia, at least in a 1.8L version, first disconnect the battery, then, remove the black plastic cover on top of the motor. There should be 6 Phillips-head screws holding it down. After removing the plastic cover, you will see two rubber covers for the spark plug wires on each side, and two gel-looking insuated tubs attatched to more wires in the middle. To remove two of the spark plugs, you must carefully pull the rubber covers upward. They clip onto the spark plugs so you will need to use careful force to pull them out. Once you have them pulled out, you can look in and see the plug. It requires a 5/8 spark plug socket with an adapter to reach in. Make sure you push the socket on hard enough so that it clips onto the spark plug, other wise it will fall over and you wont be able to get it out without a LOT more work. Finish that plug by plugging the rubber covered spark plug wire back onto the spark plug, covering the hole. You can do the same thing for the plug on the opposite side. For the two in the middle, you need to first unbolt and remove the insulated boxes that cover the spark plug holes (you can unplug the white connectors but make sure you plug them back in when you are done). Then all you have to do is do the same thing you did with the two outer ones to replace the plugs. Perform this one plug at a time, and make sure you cover the holes with a cloth or paper towel if you leave them open for any period of time. When you finish, make sure all the wires are connected, then reconnect the battery.

Hello my name is Israel and I will be glad to help you. On this vehicle it is fairly easy. This vehicle has a coil to plug assembly, meaning that each spark plug has its own coil. All you have to do is carefully pull the spark plug wire off the spark plug with a little "tough love". Using a 5/8 socket remove spark plug and replace with new one, connect spark plug wire until you feel it "snap" back onto the spark plug. Repeat with the other 7 spark plugs. Good Luck.

Procedure:

• 1. Remove the two 10 mm cap nuts on the top plastic housing over the engine
  
• 2. Remove the two fasteners on the back of the housing and remove the plastic cover
  
• 3. You will see four plastic blocks with four wire clips on each block. These blocks are individual coils for each spark plug.
  
• 4. Use the small flat bladed screwdriver to carefully lift up on the tab that holds the electrical connector onto the block and slide the wire clip off the block.
  
• 5. Remove the 10 mm bolt that holds the plastic block onto the engine. Use the needle pliers to firmly grasp the plastic screw and pull straight up to remove it 
  
• 6. Loosen the 10 mm nut on end of the plastic rail that holds the wiring harness for the blocks so that the round plastic washer on the bottom of the block will not break when you pull off the block
  
• 7. Carefully pull the plastic block out of the engine. There is a 4 inch tube attached to the block that extends into the engine to the spark plug. It will take some twisting and pulling but you must be careful not to catch the back part of the round plastic washer that you cannot see, on the bottom of the plastic wiring harness.
  
• 8. The spark plug is at the bottom of the 4 inch hole.
  
• 9. Use a 5/8 spark plug socket with a rubber collar on the 3/8" extension to remove the spark plug. The rubber collar will hold onto the spark plug as it is removed.
  
• 10. The NGK website recommends making sure the spark plugs have the correct gap .044 but the spark plug box says not to adjust the gap because you might damage the needle point iridium tip. The new spark plug has a protective cardboard tube that is removed.
  
• 11. Spark plugs can stick inside aluminum heads and break off when you try remove them, leaving only the threads of the plug inside the engine which will necessitate removing the head to remove broken spark plug. Putting antisiez on the threads of the new spark plug will prevent that in future spark plug changes
  
• 12. Now comes an interesting choice. You can use the rubber tube over the neck of the spark plug to slowly drop it down the hole and hand tighten it or you can use the spark plug socket with the rubber collar. If you use the spark plug socket, the rubber collar will stick to the plug and you will pull off the extension, leaving the socket in the hole. A pair of long needle nose pliers will reach into the hole and remove the socket, but the rubber collar may remain on the plug and you will have to bend a piece of coat hanger with a short 90 degree tip to reach into the hole and pull out the rubber collar. The rubber collar is there to prevent you from cocking a regular 5/8" deep socket at an angle which will break off the neck of the spark plug, necessitating another 10 dollars and another trip to the auto parts store.
  
• 13. After the spark plug is hand tight, give it 1/2 turn more.
  
• 14. Replace the square block, being sure that the black silicone gasket on the bottom of the round plastic washer does not get bound up on the engine post where the 10 mm bolt goes. Tighten the bolt
  
• 15. replace the electrical clip.
  
• 16. Go to the next spark plug and repeat the procedure.
  
• 17. After the last spark plug is done, be sure to re-tighten the 10 mm nut on the wiring harness rail
  
• 18. Replace the plastic cover over the engine and you are done.
  

Good luck and hope this helps. 

Wait until the engine is cold. Carefully remove the spark plug wires from each cylinder. Pull the wires by the boot and not by the wire or the wire will be ruined. Now, using a spark plug socket (one that has a rubber fitting inside of it) and an extension remove the spark plugs by turning the wrench counterclockwise. Insert the new plug into the socket so that the rubber will hold the plug in. Place the plug and socket down inside of the hole. Hand tight the plug by turning the extension clockwise. Once the plug cannot be turned by hand, tighten it a little more with the socket wrench. Install the wires back onto the plugs by pushing down on the boot. thanks for using fixya and plsase do rate the solution.

This is a outstanding question!!! The plugs or wires are not visible from the top or sides of the moter. You just can't see em'!!! You have to remove the large black plastic air intake. Then remove the intake manafold(not too hard to do) to access the spark plugs and wires.
Also: After removing all the black plastic air intake stuff, you'll have to remove the coil pack (long black plastic thing that says "Ecotek" on top). The coil pack is removed by disconnecting the wire connector on the driver's side end and then removing four bolts. To lift off the coil pack, you'll have to pull upwards firmly and evenly from both sides, because the spark plug boots or wires are holding onto the spark plugs as well as the coil. With the coil pack removed, look down into the silver channels - there's the plugs. To remove, you'll need a plug socket head and a socket wrench with long extension. To replace the plugs, I use an extra or old spark plug boot to hold the plug and get it started turning into the engine threads. Good Luck!

ok that is not the easy the ones in the front those are the easy ones but the ones in the back thse are dificul ones so in order to change those spark plug you need to race the car and try to change them from underneath this is one way the other way is to remove the intake sistem and change them from the top

Get a swivel fitting for your socket wrench. You may also need a short extension for the socket wrench. You will also need a spark plug socket to fit those plugs. Make sure that you pull the plug wires off by gripping the fat part of the plug wire and not the wire itself lest you tear it and ruin it.
