remove spark plugs 2.3 liter

2.3 liter 4 cylinder 2 plugs per cylinder. I can't get to the plug closest to the driver. Any ideas? I managed to get the wire off and now can't even get that back on. tick, tick, tick.

Doing the back 2 on the drivers side is nothing less than a challenge!
You'll need a selection of extentions, a universal and most of all, patience!
Long needle nose pliers will help with the wires, maybe 2 long screwdrivers to use as long fingers and/plus patience!
Some guys give up on those two plugs and take the intake manifold off. This is only a last resort and is not really necessary.
Take a break, then go back at it.
