How do you remove the spark plugs on a 1997 Saturn sc2 coupe?

to remove the spark plug on a 1997 Saturn SC2 Coupe

go to the Part store get your new spark plugs first, that way you can make sure you have the correct size wrench to turn them out.

pull your wire, (one at a time not all at once) they go deeper into the valve cover than a normal spark plug does. The plugs are no different than any other plug. Pull one at a time, I like to replace the wire along with the plug at the same time. Make sure you have an extension on your ratchet so it will reach far enough in the valve cover. (remember the valve cover does not get removed to remove the spark plugs) To put the plugs back in I like to use a piece of vacume tubing, on the top of the plug so that you don't cross thread the whole, with the wrench. the vacume tubing wont let you put that much torque on the plug. If you use the Dual Spark by Bosch you don't have to set the gap on the plugs either and they don't burn hot enough to hurt your engine.

Replace one at a time and take your time. There are only 4.

How do you set the ignition timing on a 89 Nissan 240sx?

first, remove the spark plug from #1, bring piston to TDC(you can see the piston in the hole or use timing marks on dampener pulley) then remove dist. cap, where the metal piece faces is #1 then goes counterclockwise 3 4 2. then you can turn the distributor itself to tweak timing once the car is running

Is timing the same as firing order?

no ( for example my 1991 Ford Mustang LX 5.0 liter V8 engine timing was ten degrees

before top dead center ( BTDC ) and the firing order was 1 - 3 - 7 - 2 - 6 - 5 - 4 - 8 )

How do you know if your timing is off?

your engine will sound rough while at idle speed and your gas milage will start getting worse.

it also might start to backfire and make a little more noise than it normally would.
