Hi. I'm Mike Green. I'm one of the owners of 1A Auto. I want to help you save time and money repairing and maintaining your vehicle. I'm going to use my 20 plus years experience restoring and repairing cars and trucks like this to show you the correct way to install parts from 1aauto.com. The right parts installed correctly. That's going to save you time and money. Thank you and enjoy the video.
In this video, we'll be showing you how to replace the spark plugs and plug wires on this Honda Accord V6. Process is similar for most Honda V6s. Tools you'll need are a five eighth inch spark plug socket, an extension and ratchet and maybe an extendable magnet.
Replacing spark plugs and wires on these Honda V6s is actually a pretty easy job but it's also kind of easy to mess up. Many times I've heard people say, "I took all the wires and plugs out and then I put it all back together but now my car doesn't run right." That's because you have to put everything back together correctly. The key is just do them one at a time. Take one wire off and one plug off, put the plug back in and put the wire back on. Very easy to work on like I said; all these six plugs are accessible.
On the rear, you can easily see, they're all very easy to get to. What you want to do is you pull the plug out over to here and then you give it a good twist. While you're twisting, pull it up and out. That's your plug wire. You'll need a five eights spark plug socket and an extension and put it right down in there and then just take the plug out. Once it gets easy to turn, it's usually a pretty good sign that your plug is all the way out and if you have a good socket you should be able to pull it up and out. My socket is a little worn out so my plug stayed down in there.
So a good tool to have around is a little extendable magnet which goes right down in and pulls the plug out. Actually, you can see somebody that did this before. It looks like they put a little bit of a paper towel around it to hold it into their socket probably. So you got the plug out and if you're replacing the wires at the same time or if separately. Now, you want to just take the whole wire off and, again, here at the distributor, twist and pull and then the wires on this car are actually fairly new so I'm not going to replace them, but you would not put your new wire on right in place because you have to make sure that you put each wire back on the same spot on the distributor. That's why you don't want to just take them all off and then try and put them back on, you just do them one at a time. Always route the back the way they were originally.
Before your installing your plugs, you want to check the gap and according to the sticker that's on the hood, right there, it tells you what kind of plugs to have and it also tells you what the gap is supposed to be. I'm sure you can't read it, maybe you can, but it says the gap is 1.1 millimeters which translates into .044 inches. I have a little gap tool and .044 just barely gets through there. That's set correctly. You might have noticed I've skipped through a different hole, but a good way to put these plugs back in is actually with a little bit of glue. Just put a little glue on there because my socket is worn and it won't hold on to the spark plug. A little bit of glue makes it so the spark plug sticks in there. You get it down in, start turning.
You always want to make sure you could turn it by hand first because if it's difficult to turn at all then you might be cross-threading is and you don't want to do that. Okay, tighten it. You want them snugged but not too tight. Put the spark plug wire down in there, make sure it clicks. Make sure you put the wire back into its correct spot.

In this video, we're going to show how to replace a spark plug on the 1998 Honda Civic with the 1.6 liter 4-cylinder engine and it's the same part and process on these vehicles from 1992 to 2000. The items you'll need for this is new spark plugs from 1AAuto.com, 5/8 inch spark plug socket and racket with an extension and a gap tool. Start off by disconnecting a spark plug wire and using a 5/8 inch spark plug socket, twist out that spark plug. If you're using a spark plug socket, the spark plug will come right up and out with the socket, otherwise you may need a magnet to pull it out.
SUp front is the old spark plug, behind it is the new one from 1A Auto, you can see that they're identical and they are going to mount exactly the same. Bring your new spark plug in, you want to make sure the gap's right so using a gap tool you want to pry that to the right size and for this vehicle it's supposed to be .044. Put the spark plug into the socket and lower down into place and just twist in and tighten it. In general, you want to torque spark plugs to about 20 to 25 per pounds. Once you have it tightened up then replace the wire and repeat for the other three.

In this video, we'll show you how to replace the spark plugs on this 2008 Dodge Caliber with a 2 liter engine. The items you'll need for this are new spark plugs for 1AAuto.com, a T30 Torx bit and ratchet, 5/8 inch spark plug socket, and a gap tool.
Located right here, are your four ignition coils, under each one is your spark plugs. If you want to start off, just disconnect this harness, push the tab and pull it off. Right here, there's a T30 torx bolt, just go ahead and remove that. Once the bolt's removed, the ignition coil pulls right out. Using a ratchet, an extension, and a 5/8 inch spark plug socket, just remove that spark plug, and it pulls right out. If you don't have a spark plug socket, it's just a 5/8 inch socket then you can just use a stick magnet to remove that spark plug.
On the left is the old one. On the right is a new spark plug from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical, and they'll mount and fit exactly the same. You want to use your gap tool to make sure the gap on the spark plug is right. You want just a little bit of resistance. For this vehicle we want .05, and it's right where it is. It's good to go. Now put the spark plug into the socket, and then lower it down into place and tighten that up. We're going to just fast forward as Don does this. Next, lower your ignition coil down into place and replace that T30 Torx bolt, and then, tighten that up. Then, you want to tighten these between 15 and 20 foot-pounds. and repeat the process for all of the spark plugs. Reconnect each harness and you're all set.
