I'm familar with that plug issue.  The early Triton modular motors,  like you say, only have 3 to 4 threads in the heads for the plugs.  When the plug goes, it takes out the coil also.  I fought  long and hard with them about it being a factory defect, and tried to join a class action case that never seemed to get off the ground.  To get to the back plugs, you have to back the rear onto ramps,  assemble a platform to stand on, remove the fuel rail, and have a good selection of wobblys, extensions, etc.  It doesn't hurt to recruit a young helper to fetch beers and tools.
