By day I am a biology professor specializing in botany, but I moonlight as a gardener, cook, beekeeper, soapmaker, brewer, woodworker, etc. My videos are intended to be educational rather than video blogs. I hope you enjoy the videos! I am always looking for new ideas so please let me know if you have suggestions.

Spark plug change: 2017 Honda Civic
zhlédnutí 28KPřed rokem
Basic steps in changing spark plugs. This 10th generation Civic EX had 108k miles at the time of service. The plugs were the original. Engine: K20C2. New spark plugs: NGK LKAR7BIX-11S. It's a good idea to blow away debris with compressed air after removing the engine cover, but before removing the old spark plugs. This prevents debris from falling into the cylinders.

Select CC for text. This is a Maru persimmon (astringent unless containing seeds, which in this case it does, so it should be sweet).

Thank you! ❤
What keeps the birds out of it?
just the facts
I just got around to doing this and followed exactly and worked out perfectly. That magnetic 14mm socket is pretty key for success so thanks. I used a strong magnet stuck to my socket to hold the other bolts as it would be easy to drop those into the engine otherwise. And vacuumed all around the area cuz mine isn't as nice and clean as yours. You don't wanna drop any dirt down the holes.
What is the gap supposed to be on these? So I can still check to make sure mine are gapped correctly.
Awesome job!! Did anyone decide to apply sealant around the gasket?
is it pretty much the same with m54b22 ?
That chit was black
Incredible. No wonder no one adjusts them and the cars just disappear from the road. Toyota Yaris and Corolla use shims and run hundreds of thousands of miles with no valve adjustments.
Cheese 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 America 😂😂
The fact the mechanics charge 120 just for labor to change these alone is highway fucking robbery
Nice video. This is the proper way to do with all the right tools. Torque wrench 🔧 and spark plug socket.
so cool i love it
Exxon Valdez baby.
love this video..one of the best and well detailed explanation
You had me until the very end. Cheese??? For why, though???
Perfect. I planted some white Sonoran with my 6th grade gardening class, but since I’d never done it myself was pretty vague on the actual process. This answered all my questions! I’ll show them this video since they won’t be able to do the whole process in a single semester. Thanks!
A great video showuig how it is done. This is what we want to see. We want to see the steps and this video delivered. Less talking or just 1 word. Brilliant. "Yummy"
1 liter oil?
You had me at 5 cloves of garlic.
Hats the torque specs for the bolts on the pan🤧
How many liters of the atf did your vehicle take?
I must say, that I have at long last finally found someone who actually understands how to make a good impressional video. Without uttering a single word, you executed a beautiful presentation of how to make flat bread out of cauliflower, (without) the need for extra ingredients. I have been searching for such a recipe for many years. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe with me. Please continue to make “ down to earth recipes “, for those of us that just want to make something delicious without all of the fanfare.
Really helpful. Thank you very much for helping me fix my car
Part #?
Cuanto de torque
Dealership wanted to charge me $351 to do this
One of the best DIY videos I have ever watched. Not an easy job but but made easier by the excelent detail provided. Now to fix the leak from the sump gasket. Also very challenging.
Excellent, clear-cut tutorial for the Honda Fit. Others I've watched are either low production quality or just not very explanatory.
I usually remove the old oil filter first since there will be no oil in the pan. Here in So California where summers are very hot I use 0W30 oil instead. 20 weight is too liquid in our hot weather. Never had engine trouble in all our 20 plus year old cars with the higher weight oil.
Do this repair. If you have an E39, chances are that you will need to do it. I did mine and my engine bay has never been cleaner. And, yes, it is a pain but doable.
Great video. I wonder why you replaced the bottom drain plug. I will probably not unless there is a good reason.
Dude, honestly this is the most detailed video of an oil change ive seen for this model specifically. Just wanted to see what I would get myself into and it looks rather easy! I really appreciate all the information such as changing the drain bolt washer and providing amazing angles to clearly see the work being done. Thank you sir!
Absolutely encouraging I’m planting this yr
I am gonna try this brother is the car has not exploted I will back and subscribe to the channel.
When changing fluid do you have 2 change the trans filter for a new 1? How much did you drain out
Can bad fluid put the car into limp mode
Does the car have to be in park or neutral for the final refill once you start it back up? I had mine jacked up this weekend and warm and opened the fill plug and it came running out. Maybe there was too much in it from before? Plan to do a full flush ASAP.
Kinda did the same for me but I was on a hill so it was expected, is till got in 6 quiets and ima put in the other 3 right now once I get it leveled.
@@frankiewild9931 good luck! I just got mine done 2 weeks ago but it's been shifting like a dream ever since. For the record I did it with the car in park while it was up on the jack stands.
Cuánto 1/4 le pusiste??
thank you sir!
If anyone is worried about aging, my great-grandmother will soon be 100 and she still gardens. It is a lot smaller than it used to be, yet still has many different vegetables.
Looks good! I'll have to try your recipe. Thanks.
Really nice. Thanks for making this. Loved having the socket size, gap and torque all highlighted and in the text . Great quality video too. Did this with my son on his Gen X at 103 k miles and the old spark plugs looked about like what you took out. Definitely showing some wear. Takes a bit of force to loosen the old plugs.
Excellent video; very helpful. One tip if I can add. Reattach the ground wires before installing the ignition coils otherwise it is hard to put the small nuts in. Put a rag in the spark plug cavity to prevent the nut from falling into it. Also, when removing the cover bolts, stuff a rag between the engine and the body to prevent bolts or washers from falling down.
Straight to the point. None of the "hey guys" or "please subscribe"
I have to comment and totally agree! So tired of people begging for subs,and telling their life story rather that showing the work done.
Thanks excellent video. What is the exact location of the gearbox I have a 2005 Honda Fit? Hose size? How many liters?
If I don’t use a torque wrench will that be a problem?
Very helpful ! Thanks for making this video :) I'm about to tackle this project on my 2003 Z4. I think it's a slightly different set up with the accessories, so I'll make a video to document the process...Stay tuned.
Those valves almost never need any adjusting. I leave them the fuck alone.
Did you replace the ignition coils when you did the spark plugs I’m coming up on 90,000 miles on my 2017 Civic touring 1.5 turbo. Was wondering what other maintenance do you think should be done around 100K miles thank you!
Clean the fuel and intake system
