Get your new sparkplug wire kit from the parts store then disconnect the battery ground cable. Pull the coil wire off of the center connection. If you have a coil pack disconnect one wire from the coil and disconnect the other end from the spark plug. Find the new wire that matches the one you pulled and put it in place. Do one wire at a time so you don't mix up the timing. Did you check your rotor and cap? Did you check your spark plugs? Did you test your coil?
You need a ratchet with an extension and a sparkplug socket to remove it.If they don't pass inspection you should replace them,but if they look okay you can clean them.You clean the sparkplug with a wire brush and a solvent like brake parts cleaner.
They have to be able to be removed so you can replace them. If you are asking why a spark plug wire would arbitrarily pop off the answer is simple you have case of tinkeritis and you should leave it alone.
Find where all your sparkplug wires lead to, one side of the wire will end up connecting to the sparkplug in the engine block, the other side will lead to a distributor or ignition coil pack, eather will indicate the cylinder the wire is hooked up to.
I need a sparkplug wire diagram for 2002 Saturn SL or the firing order
All engines that use a coil pack are pretty much the same. One end of the sparkplug wire connects to sparkplug, the other to the coil pack. Just follow the wires.
Replace one at a time.
This operation is easy: If your car is a four cyl then they may be in front or along the top of engine, if it is a V6 celebrity then you have 3 in front and 3 in back. when taking the plug wire off do them one at a time. Example: remove one sparkplug wire and remove that sparkplug for that wire. So that you will not mix up fire order. Or get a Haynes repair manual for that said car.
To find the spark plug wire locations from the distributor to the spark plug, a person will need to know the firing order of the engine. Engine sizes and years for motor vehicles have different firing orders. "Chilton's Repair Manuals" is a good source for finding the specific firing order for most engines.
Follow the sparkplug wires down past the valve covers -they should be at the end of each wire
This means that your engine is misfiring on cylinder #3. It is either a bad sparkplug, wire or coil.
no, its the opposite
at the cylinder head end of the sparkplug lead :)
