Nice write-up. Doesn't sound too hard, just time consuming!
I'd also recommend wearing mechanic's gloves for the super tight spots.. so you don't skin your knuckles. :)

Rep given as well. I have a multimeter that I haven't really used yet. What would be the best way to check the spark plug wires for ohm resistence?

My parent's old oldsmobile V6 was also a pain to change plugs on.. the front facing 3 were easy, the rear were right up against the firewall. You had to disconnect an engine mount and lean the engine towards to front to give yourself SOME room.. but still not enough to need new knuckles. :p
