Its not hard at all to change them. Just stand in the trunk and kind of huge the engine. Kind of hard to describe but nothing hard about it.

doesn't sound like plug wires to me. Sounds like you have an issue that is heat related. Crank or cam sensor is going bad is my bet. Warms up, the coil in the sensor expands and causes an issue.
