S40 Spark Plugs
Can anyone help me with the instructions on how to change the spark plugs on a 2002 S40 1.9L? I really don't have a ton of money and would like to do them myself if it's possible without a torque gun or something like that. Thanks~

Nothing mystical about it.
The 'special tool' is a common or garden spark plug socket available at most good car parts outlets.
As for torque - I was installing spark plugs for about 20 years before I had enough cash to buy a torque wrench and I usually still do it by feel. Tighten the plug until you feel the washer touch the cylinder head then give it a little more.
