Default Help installing wires

Would anyone be around to help me install new ignition wires this weekend? I've got check engine P0303 code. I'm at 94k. Seems like it would either be ignition wires or coil pack. Both seem like somewhat easy jobs, it's just my daily driver and I can't afford big mistakes.

I'll even pay you some $$ for your time, buy lunch, bring over cold beers ect. Willing to drive to you.

I like to turn the wrenches and learn about the JK. Just looking for someone friendly enough to help out. I've posted here before and have got some great help from some great members. Learning as things come up. Thanks in advance.

Got wires done myself. Moving onto coil pack tomorrow night. Hopefully that solves the issue.

I still have to get some fluids changed (diff and transfer case) and might have to do plugs if this doesn't work. Still would like to wrench if anyone is able to help.

I am also very good with computers so I can help you out most likely if you needed it.

Ok so I got the wires done myself and almost all of the plugs. I can't get the #1 which is buried on the passenger side.

Someone help a fellow learning JKer out. Just need about 20 minutes of your time to show me the trick to this one. I'm thinking maybe with some different tools this isn't so difficult?

I live in Newport but of course I'll drive to you.

Not much of a trick on that passenger side one! It just sucks! I think it took me 20 min to get the new one in when I did mine a few weeks ago. Real pain to reach. You in Newport Beach?

Cool. Give me a shout anytime. I used to live on behind Main Street in HB for a long time but I moved over here almost a year ago.
