How to Change Spark Plugs on Honda GoldWing GL1800 (Models 2001-2017). Here is a link to the Spark Plugs Purchased for my Bike I found on Amazon. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...
It is a simple job of about 30-45 minutes and is easily doable for the novice mechanic/Wrencher. you will need a 6mm Allen Wrench, a Spark Plug Socket (5/8'), a Socket Wrench with Extension as well. The spark plug gap should be 0.039 to 0.043 in.
Torque specs for the spark plugs is 13ft/lbs.
. Check your manual for the recommended Interval Change Mileage. Most Bikes can go much longer than recommenced Spark Plug Change. As always, thank you for Watching MemphisMike and hope you enjoy the video with myself and "Dano"!

Thanks so much you saved me 150$ and 4 days of downtime. Also Uber both ways to and from Honda dealership. My plugs cost 6$ a piece from Amazon. Couldn't find them cheaper locally. Again thanks guys

Something I won't do without is the Harbor freight drive on lift (300 bucks), I also put a HF wheel chock on it so I usually just ride right on it and get off the bike, no straps needed. You should always use anti-seize when you have a steel plug and aluminum head. It looks like your house sits about 10 feet higher than your neighbors? (when looking out the garage door)

@nelsong4719 5 лет назад

Good vid MM and Dano. I've done mine at least 4 times on my 04 and find you're on the money. I'd like to see you tackle an air filter(maybe I missed it). Did it once using a shop manual and found it to be a pain in the butt. I got lazy last time and got a dealer to do it but the mech bragging he could do it under 2 hours left a bit of a messy job. Haven't found a good vid on it yet.

@MemphisMike901 5 лет назад

Dano has changed my air filter. I still have footage somewhere. It was so much got over whelmed with editing!

@claythomas7982 Год назад

I use Irridium spark plugs because of the accelleration I get and cleaner more effecient fuel burn I get.

@robcraft1373 5 лет назад

@christophersmith5116 5 лет назад

Great Info Mike! The Pit Bull jack, do you need an Adapter for it to lift the Goldwing? I have a jack similar to yours but it touches the small exhaust pipes that most people think is the Frame. Any Info is much appreciated. Thanks for sharing.

@MemphisMike901 5 лет назад

Yes and it comes with it

@dansmith3141 5 лет назад

The lift has long enough rails where it sticks way past frame rails on each side

@hippielewis4768 3 года назад

Great job-only how is the easiest way to get chrome valve covers off that has been put on with double sided tape. Been nice if you told what size spark plug socket. 20 minutes later tried to order from Amazon. Amazon said they do not fit my bike.

@MemphisMike901 3 года назад

Hey there is a thing on all youtube videos called the DESCRIPTION! Maybe you should have read it? I will save you the time to go back tho. "It is a simple job of about 30-45 minutes and is easily doable for the novice mechanic/Wrencher. you will need a 6mm Allen Wrench, a Spark Plug Socket (5/8'), a Socket Wrench with Extension as well.

@randyhickman604 5 лет назад

Good job. I was noticing the foot warmers on your bike. Do you them, do they work? I’ve got a 2001 wing but was thinking about trading for a newer one with heated seats, grips & the foot warmers. Just wondering if and how well they worked. Randy

@MemphisMike901 5 лет назад

You can feel a little motor heat from them. Heated seat/grips a MUST in my book!

@robertcraft8945 5 лет назад

Next time your at Harbor Frieght, get yourself a sparkplug rubber puller,!!!

@Chezzy33 4 года назад

Couldn't figure out why socket wouldn't go inside the sparky plug and that's why, they are to big.

Mike, as a gold wing man maybe you or the community had an issue with the brake lights staying on. My bike failed inspection because of it. Maybe it's something I can resolve before taking it in to a mechanic. Help!

Even thought the plugs are pre-gapped, shouldn't you check them anyways?

@MemphisMike901 4 года назад

That was done before hand

@alanpennykid133 Год назад

I just put new Iridiums into my GL1800 sidecar (some of the sidecar bits make access to the left side harder). They might have been pregapped for some purpose, but not for a Goldwing. Specs are 1.0 - 1.1mm, the "pregapped plugs measured at 0.75mm. Good thing I checked. I use Iridium because they last much longer, with the sidecar making access harder it's a sensible choice.

I don't have a buddy like you do so I have to pay $80 for the oil change and I make a lunch date out of it with my wife. Are the plugs something different?

@MemphisMike901 5 лет назад

Man these things like Oil change/Final Drive Oil and Plugs can be done by anyone pretty much. All 3 of which I have done myself. You can save yourself a lot of $$ on these simple maintenance items. i will be the first to admit...I have NEVER been much of a "Wrench" myself. I have videos of all 3 of these maintenance items. I admit tho. A buddy like Dano' is great to have FIRST as a friend, and someone who has grown up Wrenching ALL his life.

Doing my pr-trip this morning I noticed I have a fog light out also. Really bummed me out. Low beam out only the turn signal still works and the high-beam works.
