thanks, I needed a link to the spark plug socket. I let a friend borrow mine and he never brought it back.
You are welcome. Good luck on your project!
Really great job on this video! 👏🏼
I love when I find someone who explains things simply and efficiently without belaboring the process or missing critical details.
Solid work.
Thanks for showing how to do the rear plugs. I watched another video and they skipped that part completely.
Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
THANKS LARGE MC!
Without this tutorial I really didn't even want to try because of the rear plugs and coils which looked inaccessible - about an hour plus with recommended breaks and patience.
2013 Ridgeline and one convenience I had was I have a flexible 4" 3/8 extension which is no good for cracking or torquing but very helpful fishing out the socket after taking the solid extension off and also starting the new plug then switching back to solid - esp on that left rear one which was the most difficult; I was able to unclamp & flex the hoses on the right rear to get at it ok.
Again, thanks, Jim.
You are welcome. Thanks for adding that information! I’m sure someone will find it helpful!
Great video! Thanks for showing both the front and back side of the how to do this project! I love your videos! Keep it going
Thanks so much! I’m glad you found it helpful!
Just wanted to thank you for this tutorial. Thanks to you I successfully replaced all 6 of my spark plugs and coils. I’ve never worked on my truck before. I encountered only one hiccup when the boot on one of the coils disintegrated and lodged inside the spark plug tube. I extracted it but by bit with a pair of Hemostats, then vacuumed out all the remaining bits. Otherwise, it was a smooth install!
Great job! Thanks for watching and commenting :)
Thank you very much for this! I'm going to re-watch a few times and take more notes. Showing it to my friend who is going to help me with this when my parts arrived.
Best of luck on your project. You've got this!
Thanks for showing me how to change my spark plugs for my truck!
You are welcome! Good luck on your project!
Thanks for great instructions
You are welcome. Thanks for watching
Wow, this was super helpful!
I'm so glad!
Cumbersome work, but still a relatively easy job, if as you say, a person just takes their time. Nice CZcams.
Thanks so much!
Excellent video. Very detailed. Great job.
Thanks so much!
thanks bro, great video
Thanks for watching and commenting!
I hope you get the credit you deserve! Thank you very muc sir!
Much appreciated!
Great Presentation, you did an awesome job.
Thank you! Glad you like it!
Thanks you've helped me out immensely !
Happy to help! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Great video, thanks!
Thanks so much!
Good Vid. thanks for posting
Thanks so much! Best of luck on your project
Thanks for the video. I just changed all my plugs and all my coils (why put the old coils back?). One tip. I found it much easier (on the rear plugs), to unscrew the plug, remove the ratchet, pull the socket/spark plug out until you can grab it with your other hand then pull the extension out of the socket. It makes it far easier to pull out the plug. Reverse to install.
Great tips! That’s definitely an option. Often wires don’t wear out like spark plugs and the last time I changed the spark plugs I did the wires. Thanks for watching and commenting!
WoW, good job, TY from CA
You are welcome. How’d your project go?
Challenging but mission accomplished☮️
Declared success too soon, difficult to instal rear back plug, any have 2 different types of plug sockets, day 2 on one plug any suggestions TY
Got it , it’s positional,TY & TC
Sorry, I just saw this!
Not sure why but I didn't have enough clearance had to remove fan,no front end damage
You can definitely do that. It actually makes the job a bit easier. It takes some weird angles otherwise. Thanks for adding this bc I’m sure someone will find it helpful!
me too!...i thought something was wrong, but eventually i worked it out!
Did you use dielectric grease? I didn’t see you use any in the video but you mentioned it in the required items in the beginning of the video
Yes I did. Just a little on the top of each plug
Hey huge fan but i have a question. I have a 2007 honda ridgeline and my engine bay really needs to be cleaned can i preasurewash the bay at alike a self wash. Also will changing spark pmigs fix a misfire on 4 code?
I’d be careful of cleaning with any water near any electrical components and battery. It’s best to do a cleaner that doesn’t need water to clean out your engine bay.
What code are you getting?
Truck shaking on start, how does the engine mount look?
I'll have to look into that! Thank you for pointing that out. Maybe a future video is coming if it's bad!
Too much work for me. I will pay instead. Awesome tutorial tho thank you!
You are welcome. Yes it’s a time consuming project. Thanks for watching!
It appear it's difficult to change at the back portion.
Yes, the rear ones are much more difficult but it’s the same process as the front. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Is there crush washers involved?
Mine did not have a crush washer.
@@MCFIXIT thanks for the quick reply!
The spark plugs have crush washers.
Where did you find your specs for torque?
Why would you not use anti-seize? If those get stuck in there you've got a major rebuild to do if they happen to get stuck. Use anti-seize!!!!
I got them from the service manuel
There were some reports about it possibly messing up some things (I think it was torque specs) but I used it in the video, use your best judgment
What’s that glue u putting there ? Necessary?
Anti-seize lubricant is what I am thinking you are referring to. Yeah, it helps it to be able to be removed easily in 60k when sparks plugs are due next
@@MCFIXIT perfect … so won’t damage anything ?
I prefer not to use it bc it’s been know to make you over torqued the plugs. I know lots of people who swear by it though.
Your video quality is good, but this video is 38 minutes long and could easily be under 10. I know everyone has different skill levels, but seriously no one needs or wants to watch you wrench on a spark plug.
Thanks for the valuable input! This is an earlier videos of mine and I try to speed up some different parts now. I’ll continue to keep this in mind for the future! Thanks for watching and commenting. I appreciate it!
I kind of disagree - i was able to get to the segments i needed to see by fast-forward and the 38 minutes of elapsed time allowed me to gauge the time i'd be on it.
