NOW YOU MIGHT RUN INTO THIS LIKE I DID THIS PLASTIC COWL KIND OF GETS IN THE WAY BUT ALL
YOU NEED TO DO IS PUSH UP YOU DON'T NEED A LOT OF TOOLS TO DO THIS THERES 4 10MM BOLTS
1 2 3 4 AND THEN YOU NEED A 3/8THS RATCHET EXTENSION AND A 9/16THS 3/8THS SPARK PLUG
SOCKET WHICH I GOT RIGHT HERE OK SO THE FIRST THING YOU NEED TO DO YOU HAVE THESE CONNECTORS
HERE RIGHT THAT GO INTO THE COIL PACK THIS IS YOUR COIL PACK THIS IS THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR
NOW MOST OF THE TIME YOU CAN PUSH HERE AND PULL IT UP TOWARDS THAT WAY UP AND OUT SO
AS YOUR PUSHING YOU NEED TO LEAD IT UP AND OUT BUT YOU CAN SEE RIGHT HERE RIGHT WHERE
MY FINGER TIP IS IF I CAN GET THE CAMERA TO FOCUS THE PART THAT THE CLIP GOES OVER SOMETIMES
DOES NOT ALWAYS CLEAR IT WHEN YOUR PUSHING ON THE TAB SO YOU CAN EITHER GET A PICK OR
YOUR CAN STEAL YOUR WIFES OR YOUR MOMS SILVERWARE GET A DON'T DO THIS TOO HARD OR YOU MIGHT
SNAP THAT PLASTIC PIECE OFF JUST GET YOUR SILVERWARE A KNIFE AT THE SAME TIME AS YOUR
PUSHING HERE GIVE IT A LITTLE NUDGE A LITTLE LOVE NUDGE RIGHT THERE WITH YOUR BUTTER KNIFE
AND IT COMES OUT SO LET ME SHOW YOU HOW TO DO THAT REAL QUICK OK SO AS YOU COME IN HERE
IF YOU CAN'T IF YOUR HAVING DIFFICULTIES PULLING THIS UP AND OUT AS YOUR PUSHING ON IT BRING
YOUR KNIFE IN HERE JUST EASE IT UP A LITTLE YOU'LL SEE IT WHEN IT ACTUALLY CLEARS AND
THERE YOU GO TRY NOT TO BREAK THIS CLIP INSIDE HERE ITS JUST KIND OF A BUMMER WHEN THESE
THINGS SNAP BECAUSE THEY DON'T THERE SUPPOSE TO STAY LOCKED IN PLACE ON THE COIL PACK AND
YOU DON'T WANT TO SNAP THEM BECAUSE IF YOU SNAP THEM THEY WON'T STAY IN PLACE OR THEY
SHOULD STAY IN PLACE YOU JUST RUN THE RISK OF THEM COMING OUT OR AFTER VIBRATIONS I DON'T
KNOW HOW MANY MILES THEY JUST MIGHT WORK THEMSELVES OUT IF IT'S NOT ABLE TO LOCK ITSELF INTO PLACE
GET THE 10MM BOLT OUT NOW YOU REPEAT THIS 3 MORE TIMES FOR THE REST OF THE COILS AND
THE COIL PACKS AND THE COIL PACK BOLT IF THE COIL PACK HAD BEEN ON FOR A LONG TIME JUST
MOVE IT BACK AND FORTH WIGGLE IT UP AND OUT AND THEN LIKE I SAID YOU MIGHT HAVE TO PUSH
THE JUST HOLD UP THE COWL TIGHT HERE TO GET THE COIL PACK CLEAR I DON'T THINK A LOT OF
PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT BUNDYS GARAGE ON YOUTUBE SO IF YOU FIND THIS VIDEO HELPFUL PLEASE SUBSCRIBE
IT REALLY HELPS ME OUT AND IF YOU CAN SHARE THIS VIDEO WITH SOMEONE THAT YOU KNOW OR SOMEONE
THAT YOU LOVE THAT HAS A TOYOTA COROLLA WITH A 1.8 LITER OR ANY OF THE OTHER VEHICLES THAT
I MENTIONED AT THE BEGINNING OF THE VIDEO GO AHEAD SHARE IT WITH THEM ON FACEBOOK OR
TWITTER NEXT THING YOUR GOTTA GET A 6 INCH 3/8THS EXTENSION GET YOUR SPARK PLUG SOCKET
HERE GO AHEAD WORK THAT DOWN ONCE AGAIN YOU MIGHT HAVE TO LIFE UP THIS COWLING AND IT'S
ON THE SPARK PLUG RIGHT THERE YOU GOT A 3/8THS WRENCH RIGHTY TIGHTY LEFTY LOOSEY
OK POPPED OFF VERY EASILY JUST TAKE YOUR JUST GETTING IT LOOSE BY HAND WORK IT UP AND OUT
THERES THE OLD SPARK PLUG ALRIGHT NGK THESE ARE IRIDIUM THE PART NUMBER HERE IS ILKAR7B11THE
SAME EXPACT SPARK PLUGS THAT I PICKED UP FROM O'REILLY AUTO PARTS ILKAR7B11 OK SO THESE
ALREADY COME PRE GAPPED SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THAT A COUPLE THINGS I DO LIKE
TO DO IS MAKE SURE YOU CHECK RIGHT HERE BETWEEN ONE THING I LIKE TO DO BEFORE I PUT SPARK
PLUGS IN AND THIS HAPPENED TO ME ON A CHEVY I PICKED THE SPARK PLUGS UP FROM A CHEVY DEALERSHIP
AND THERE WAS A TINY LITTLE CRACK BETWEEN THE METAL RIGHT HERE AND THE PORCELAIN RIGHT
HERE IT WAS CRACKED SO I ACTUALLY INSTALLED IT AND I GOT A MISFIRE AND I CHASED MY TAIL
FOR A DAY TRYING TO FIND THIS MISFIRE ALWAYS MAKE SURE YOU ROTATE THIS 360 DEGREES ON ALL
THE SPARK PLUGS YOU DO YOU PICK UP MAKE SURE THERE ARE NO CRACKS IN THE PORCELAIN BEFORE
YOU LEAVE THE PARTS HOUSE SO I LIKE TO PUT ANTI SEIZE ON THE TREADS OF THE SPARK PLUGS
SO I GOT MY ANTI SEIZE HERE JUST PUT A LITTLE BIT ON MY FINGER A LITTLE BIT ON THE SPARK
PLUG JUST WORK IT AROUND AND THEN ANOTHER THING I LIKE TO DO ONCE I START ONCE I'M GOING
TO PUT THE COIL PACK BACK INTO PLACE I'LL GO AHEAD GET SOME DI-ELECTIC GREASE I'LL JUST
TAKE A LITTLE BIT OF DI-ELECTRIC GREASE GO AHEAD PUT IT IN THERE IN THE BOTTOM OF THE
COIL PACK SO THAT WAY WHEN THE COIL PACK COMES INTO CONTACT WITH THE SPARK PLUG YOU HAVE
A NICE SOLID CONNECTION FOR ELECTRICITY TO GO INTO ONE TRICK THAT I LIKE TO DO WHEN I
PUT IN NEW SPARK PLUGS AND SO I DON'T CROSS THREAD THE SPARK PLUG DOWN IN THE HOLE IS
I'LL GO AHEAD AND I'LL GET A 5/16THS HOSE THIS IS ABOUT 6 7 INCHES I'LL GO AHEAD AND
INSTALL THE SPARK PLUG I'LL DO THIS WITH EACH AND EVERY ONE GO AHEAD INSTALL THE SPARK PLUG
ON THE END OF THE HOSE AND THEN I GUIDE THE HOSE AND THE SPARK PLUG DOWN WITH THE HOSE
AND GET IT STARTED THAT WAY I'VE SEEN GUYS DROP THESE DOWN IN THERE I'VE SEEN GUYS START
THESE WITH AIR TOOLS AND I JUST CRINGE WHENEVER I SEE THAT BECAUSE YOU CAN OBVIOUSLY IF YOU
DROP IT DOWN THERE AND IT HITS THE SIDE THEN YOU RUN THE RISK OF IT ACTUALLY CLOSING THE
GAP OR DAMAGING IT SOMEHOW IF YOU RUN IT DOWN WITH AIR TOOLS THEN YOU CAN RUN THE RISK OF
CROSS THREADING THE SPARK PLUG AND YOU DO NOT WANT TO CROSS THREAD THE SPARK PLUG DOWN
IN THE HOLE INTO A SPARK PLUG TUBE CAUSE YOU WILL BE HATING LIFE HATING LIFE SO I JUST
START IT THAT WAY IT BOTTOMED OUT BRING BACK IN MY 9/16THS SPARK PLUG SOCKET GET IT TO
SEAT CORRECTLY THERE WE GO NOW THIS IS MORE OF A FEEL THING INSTALLING NEW SPARK PLUGS
YOUR GOING TO GO ABOUT A QUARTER OF A TURN 90 DEGREES FROM THE 3 O'CLOCK POSITION TO
THE 6 O'CLOCK POSITION BUT DON'T OVER TIGHTEN THESE THERE IS A TORQUE SPECIFICATION BUT
I LIKE TO DO IT BY FEEL SO RIGHT ABOUT THERE THAT'S GOOD RIGHT ABOUT THERE LET'S GO AHEAD
AND BRING THAT BACK UP AND OUT YOU WILL ACTUALLY FEEL THE CRUSH WASHER GO I'VE ALREADY PUT
THE DI-ELECTRIC GREASE IN HERE SO GO AHEAD PUT MY COIL PACK DOWN INTO PLACE BRING MY
10MM BOLT FOR THE COIL PACK BACK INTO PLACE RUN THAT DOWN AND THEN YOUR GOING TO REPAST
THIS STEP FOR ALL REMAINING 3 SPARK PLUGS TIGHTEN THAT UP JUST SNUG IT UP THEN BRING
YOUR ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR BACK IN OK MAKE SURE THAT CLICKS MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A GOOD
CONNECTION THERE BECAUSE IF YOU GO AHEAD AND YOU START UP THE VEHICLE AFTER YOU DO THIS
JOB AND THERES A MISFIRE THERES A VERY HIGH CHANCE THAT YOU DODN'T PUT ONE OF YOUR CONNECTORS
BACK ON THE COIL PACK SO
