Take a complete tool box with you, you never know when you may need that special tool. 7/8 wrench will get the O2 sensors out, they're located on the exhaust before and after the cat convertor.

Top of the valve cover. The one on the front is the crankcase breather tube and the one on the back is the CCV. You shouldn't have a PVC on your 4.0.
