No! It's up against the AC coming out of the firewall.

Thanks,

The easiest way to change the passenger side plugs on the SOHC is through the front wheel well. Remove the tire and the rubber liner to give you much more room. To make it even easier, install a 3" body lift. With my body lift, my plugs are right in front of me once I remove the wheel and liner.
