I too was "afraid" to do my own tune up on my 96 SE at first until I read all about it here on CEG. Sure it took my 17 yr old son and myself a little while to do, but now either of us could do it in about an hour (with breaks). Hardest part really was getting the old plug wires off. You just have to pull alot. One tip I did read about was using a 8"-10" length of 3/8" rubber hose to place the new plugs in to ease lowering them down to the head to get them started. Other than that you need basic tools, i.e. rachet, socket, extension(s). Like everyone else has said, give it a try and if you run into trouble ask for help here. You'll feel really proud afterwards by saving all that money and learning something in the process.
