Best Answer

The first knowned spark plug was invented on February 2, 1839 by Edmond Berger. i think There is a lot of controversy over who invented the spark plug-1839 by Edmond Berger, although he did not patient the idea.

Another claim is Oliver Lodge, sometime in the 1850's-Lodge also claims to be the inventor of Wireless Communication, which is funny to me because Tesla won the patent right of the Radio upon his death, only after Marconi stated he "Based his models after tesla's original design". Tesla did this some 11 years before Marconi came up with the telegraph.

In my opinion, I believe Tesla is the true holder of the invention-creating an electric igniter in the 1880's, He gained U.S. Patent 609,250.

How do you change the spark plugs in a 1987 Chevy Celebrity?

To change the spark plugs in a Chevy Celebrity: 1. Give the spark plug boot a twist to free it up from the spark plug, then pull on the boot to remove the spark plug wire from the spark plug. 2. Use a 5/8" spark plug socket with an extension and ratchet or breaker bar to loosen then remove the spark plug. 3. Set the gap on the new plug to .045" then screw it back into the spark plug hole in the head. Tighten the spark plug and replace the spark plug wire. I change the spark plugs one at a time to keep from getting the spark plug wires on the wrong spark plug.
