If you can't find the spark plugs you should get it to a mechanic for the tune up Just my 2 cents.

That being said, Spark plugs are "hidden" inside the engine, they are connected to those wires you see on top of the engine block. On the 3.2 tl you should have 6 of those wires, 3 on each sides, 1 per cylinder.

I'd recommend doing ALOT of reading before doing everything yourself as anything and everything require that little ounce of knowledge to do it right.

With the internet you can find alot of video tutorials however, I'd start with that.

We have coil packs, so no spark plug wires.
