as long as the pins are the same on the plug to socket you just push it in, when a plug has only 2 pins it is double insulated look for 2 squares one inside the other this is the symbol ;double insulated means no metal in casing on the appliance

How do you change the sparkplugs on a Toyota Tacoma 4-cylinder?

I've done it a few times on my 1996 Tacoma 2.4L engine. You need a 5/8" spark plug socket (3/8" drive preferably) with the foam rubber insert that holds the spark plug once it's loose. And a ratchet and extension (12" is enough I think). Then, one by one (for each spark plug), remove the spark plug wire, use the ratchet/extension/socket to remove the spark plug, reverse the process to install the new spark plug. One thing I ran into this last time was that the foam rubber insert in the spark plug socket held the spark plug more tightly than the socket was held on the end of the extension (it was a brand-new spark plug socket), so I had to back that first one out and only very gently push the replacement spark plug into the spark plug socket so the foam rubber insert barely held it enough to lower it down into the hole for the spark plug (through the valve cover).

How do you remove the spark plugs on a 2000 Yukon XL?

Get a 5/8" spark plug socket, socket wrench, and if you can a spark plug wire removal pliers. The spark plugs are located on the sides of the engine, between the exhaust manifold. Remove the wire covering the spark plug be careful ,don't just pull on it, first turn it, from side to side, using the pliers. Due to the heat the wire bonds with the spark plug and easy to tear them. So first twist them and then pull. Make sure you pull close to the end. Insert the socket on the spark plug and turn counter clockwise. Before you install the new plug, check the gap. Insert the new plug in the socket and turn it with your fingers three-to four turns is good. Make sure you turn in with your fingers first is very easy to damage the threat if you use the socket wrench. Once you feel the plug has gone straight into the thread use the socket wrench to tighten it. Its the same procedure for the rest of them.

What does a three phase motor look like?

A three phase motor looks like any other motor from the outside. It might be a little larger than a standard motor but it looks the same. If it is not hardwired but has a plug, the plug will have four prongs instead of three. The socket will look different from a standard socket or the socket for a stove or air conditioner. It will also have four holes. The hole for the ground plug will have a special indent. That makes it so you can not put the plug in wrong. A two phase motor will run the correct way regardless of how you put the plug in the socket. If you would put the plug for three phase motor in the socket the wrong way, the motor would run backwards.
