2002 Mercury Sable how do you change spark plugs + ignition


I need to change my spark plugs+ignition wires and i am not sure how to do this? The 3 plugs and ignition wires on the backside of the motor are really hard to get to. Do you need to take part of the motor off or what? the reason i am changing them is because whenever i drive up a hill or try to increase my speed show and steady, the car starts hesitating and it feels like a plug is misfiring or it is not getting enough gas. then it goes away if i step on the excelerator pretty good.
