You must undo the torx screews and move the coil boxes over the other 2...
The scorp is dual-coiled.. (translated from norw.)

Undo the the 12 ( or is it 16 ?) 10mm bolts, remove the top plate, you'll need a torx key set ( nothing else will do! ) to remove the DC coil boxes, don't force the torx screwheads too much as they made of soft metal. The spark plug are deeply recessed into the engine so you'll need a 8 inch or more extension ( Oooer !, don't we all ! ) on your 1/2 inch spark plug socket.

Good Luck.
