This is how teachers show you stuff. Teach you the easiest possible scenario then the test is spark plug #8 which they didnt prepare you.

@jameshagerty1798 4 года назад

Why would u do a video on the easiest plug? Do the #8 spark plug in the back passenger side...

@deontecary432 Год назад

Facts lol

@samr9520 Год назад

Number 8: Use a 1.5" extension or no extension with the spark plug socket. Without the rachet, install the socket/extension by hand. Next attach the rachet down low. Best use a long handle rachet. Also you need a step ladder🪜 - i got a good one at Lowe's.. basically you'll be laying on the engine really loving your Chevy while removing the back passenger plug 😁

Probably cause they made it sound like a breeze when the passenger side rear is the worst. I work on Toyotas, and they don't do the tech dirty like this on the v8s

@djvj1 2 года назад

One thing not mentioned which will help a ton getting those metal boots off the plugs, is use a puller tool. You can find them at harbor freight. It grabs them just right and give you the grip to pry them off.

@samr9520 Год назад

I removed them by hand, no tool. There are these special gorilla grip gloves 🧤 i bought at AutoZone. They allow you to grip and pull the wire by hand. The metal boots come off easily once wire is removed from spark plugs

My mom has never gotten a tune up for the suburban and after dealing with the same symptoms with my 2002 Saturn L100 I'm convinced that it is time for some new spark plugs! Thank you so much for the amazingly instructed video! Just subscribed!!

@IFartOnMyNutz69 3 года назад

1A is right. It's not really an issue on this vehicle. Simple fact is if you have that much trouble with the number eight on this particular vehicle, then you might be better off taking it into a shop.

@philipwurdinger3853 2 года назад

I know it would be a little more work, but taking the front passenger wheel off to get to those plugs would be a little easier to get to since they literally right behind the plastic

I did exactly that and now I have. A heck engine light and the truck idles a bit more than usual. It’s a misfire but what did I do wrong. I know the plugs are correct because I wouldn’t have been able to screw them all the way in. Any thoughts will help.

@jasontheshort55 4 года назад

While I appreciate the how-to video, the reason I looked this up is to see what tools and adapters I would need for the difficult, hard-to-reach plug, not the easiest. Might consider showing that instead in the future.

The reason I looked for the video was the passenger side furthest in plug. I can’t seem to get to that one as there isn’t enough room. Showing the easy one is fine, but you need to show the hardest one too. It is “not the same” quoting what this video states at the beginning.

Apparently you should to prevent it from getting stuck next time you try to take em out. But apparently you shouldn’t because some plugs already have some coating for that and if you put anti seize on them and torque them they’ll actually be over torqued. Idk

I have a 2010 Hyundai Genesis coupe 2.0t. with no codes I have vibration at idle, and get worse with ac on. I replace : pcv, motor/transmission mount, o2 sensors, spark plugs, ignition coil. Cleaned: throttle body, maf sensor, and use fuel treatment cleaner. I believe I mentioned all I've done, but had many shops check it out and they all say it fine. So you have any clue or what I can do to fix it?

@xhoustonkingx6212 6 лет назад

This video mentions 11ft lbs for torque spec on spark plugs. But other video from same company said 25 ft lbs. Same motor. Also i heard its supposed to be 17 ft lbs. Who's right??...

@xhoustonkingx6212 6 лет назад

Found out last night it recommends 11 ft lbs torque for spark plugs. I accidentally broke two spark plugs. Maybe I did too much torque or maybe it was because the brand Bosch. But I went back to the store bought the ac Delco platinum pre gapped at .040 and double checked them carefully with the spark plug gap tool just to make sure it was right. Didn't put any anti seize either this time. Turned the spark plugs by hand then finished tightening them with the ratchet and spark plug socket. Once it was starting to tighten almost all the way. I did a little less than 1/4" turn with the ratchet. Now my vehicle is running fine and I didn't break any spark plugs. Thanks anyway for the video. All the spark plugs were easy except the back right one on the passenger side of vehicle. Wish the engineers had to work on what they made. But they never do in any type of field that I know of -_-

@heidebaer41 2 года назад

How necessary is the torque wrench? I was planning to very gently wrench them. And anti seize is great too

@johnshanahan6439 2 года назад

Never use anti seize!!! It loosens the plug up so you want to tighten it down more. Then you'll end up with a frozen plug in the block.

How much do you put the spark plug gap I heard two different numbers 0.60 and 0.40

@1AAuto 3 года назад

+Javier Chavez Thank you for the question. Typically spark plugs come pre-gapped for an easier install.

@MrHuck 3 года назад

What I’ve read on message boards they change the specs to 040. That’s what I use on my 99 Sierra but the ones I pulled out were 060 except for 2 that was 065. Truck is running good and stop a subtle misfire I was having but would really like more official info on gap size.

Unless you drive a Ford. I did my spark plugs and used that anti seize, ended up blowing 2 of my plugs out of the hole. I was told by my mechanic that it was the Anti Sieze that's the reason. No idea if that's true or not.

@kellyokamoto1604 5 лет назад

@@cddog1995 NOT TRUE. If your engine was a 3V Triton engine. they are NOTORIOUS for blowing plugs out. It has to do with the minimal amount of threads in the head that Ford designed-poorly. Anti-seize is a MUST on Ford's. I believe your issue was NOT the application of the A-S but the INCORRECT torque values you applied to the plugs. Fordtechmakeuloco has a great video on the Triton 3V's (especially!!) problem and solutions.
