Pull on the boot.
Pull the spark plug wires off the spark plugs. Remove the spark plugs with a spark plug socket. Install the new spark plugs and put the spark plug wires back on. I recomend replacing the spark plug wires as well. If replacing them, just remember that the new wires are hooked up the same ways that the old ones came off.
spark plugs of spark plug wires. i had the same problem and i changed my spark plugs to the e3 ones and my spark plug wires to the msd 8.5mm wires and i haven't had the problem any more.
Just follow the ign. wires to the plugs, and use a spark plug socket.
You will first need to remove the coils and plug wires to access the spark plugs. The coils sit on top of the valve cover and are held in with small torx head screws. Then pry off the plug wires and remove the coil and wires together. Then you have access to the spark plugs.
No, they don't necessarily have to be replaced. However it is usually a good idea to replace the wires along with the spark plugs. As the wires age and go through heating cooling cycles they get stiff and brittle. As you flex the wires to remove them from the spark plugs the inner conductor often breaks causing a misfire. Also when you pull the spark plug boots off of the spark plugs the connector often can break loose and stay on the spark plug, thus ruining the wire.
Pull them off of the spark plugs and distributer cap. . .
I need to know also. I can't get the spark plug wires off!
that is unusual, your spark plugs and spark plug wires need to be changed if its a gas engine.
When changing the spark plugs on a 2006 Toyota Tacoma make sure the vehicle is off. Use a spark plug socket and pull the spark plug wires. Remove the old spark plugs and properly space and install the new parts.
Pull the spark plug wires off each of the spark plugs. Blow out the wells where the spark plugs are with compressed air as dirt accumulates there. Use a spark plug socket with an extension to remove the plugs. Make sure to gap your new plugs to the proper spec which is in the owners manual. Install the new plugs, making sure when you thread them in with the socket that they do not crossthread! It can be costly to rethread these holes. Reinstall the plug wires in the correct sequence.
Under the hood, you should see the rubber spark plug wires. They start at the distributor, they extend out to each cylinder on the motor. Just trace the spark plug wires and at the end is the spark plug. Pull the wire off and there it is. on the engine
In the heads.......at the end of the spark plug wires What a smartaxx, of course they are at the end of the wires, which have to be pulled off and the individual coil packs removed (moved out of the way). The plugs are recessed deep down and require an extension on your spark plug socket to reach them.
