What are you talking about?
Spark-plugs? Follow the leads from the distributor to the plugs in each of the cylinders, and using the right tool, (the spark-plug wrench appropriate for that plug) slowly, carefully remove them. Only do them one at a time, or you could confuse the HT leads that you take off the engine, which is not a good thing to do!
Using a feeler gauge, check and if you need to, adjust, the spark-plug gap for the new plugs. Clean the throat around the hole with a rag, and put a tiny drop of oil on the threads of the new plug before fitting it. Do not over-tighten it! Best use a torque wrench set to the correct value from your car handbook. Replace lead, and do the next one.
Look at the plugs you remove. They tell you a lot about the engine condition. Check the widely-published chart of photos of spark plugs (it should be in your handbook or manual) to see what the plugs are saying about the engine. In short, they should not be burnt out, oily, or cracked. A light biscuit colour is ideal.
Please explain what Welsh plugs are, if they aren't spark-plugs!
