Hi, I'm Don from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
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.
