How To Replace Spark Plug

I went to Precision tune and did a diagnosis on my car, it turned out to be Cylinder #2 misfire, and all spark plug have excessive carbon build up. I was offered a tune up for 150 total, or tune up + air induction cleaning + ignition wires for about 320. I turned it down. How much would cost me if I buy parts from the dealer or anywhere cheap to fix it myself? Do I replace just 6 of the spark plug or plus the wires?

If you just want to replace that spark plug, it will cost you less than $5.00 for one. You may need to buy a spark plug wrench which will cost about the same.

I am a woman and I am getting ripped off by mechanics and I need my spark plugs changed and wires replaced. I am running on about 3 cylinders right now. Please help someone

the best advice is to replace them one at a time to avoid confusion :)

Can't seem to remove them out from the valve cover. I'm driving corolla 93, 4AFE engine.
are the seals supposed to come out from the top or bottom of the valve cover?

You pull them out with long nose pliers. Or you can use one of these:

My brothers melted, but I'm hoping there is some way before that happens to tell.
4000 mile trip ahead of me.

Factory installed 17 years ago.

Are they cracked, arcing etc? When did you have a tune-up last?
