Just take out the easiest ones to get to. Three or four is plenty. Looking at the front of the engine, as if you were standing in front of the car about to be run over, the engine will be rotating clockwise. So, pretend as though are trying to tighten the crank bolt. With plugs out, it will turn very easily. When I adjust my valves, I don't even bother pulling plugs when I turn it with a socket wrench, I just slip a long jack handle over the socket handle.
