Best video yet on replacing plugs for a 10-12 3.0 Fusion!

I don't know what car that is, but what you show on the interior is not even close to what a 2010 Fusion interior looks like.

Thx! I've got the same car and plan on doing this someday soon.

Dude I need help. I can’t for the life of me get the damn thing off. All bolts loosened and it’s still not coming off all the way

Which way are you turning to loosen the plugs

Don't you change the sir filter with a tune up?

Love this video as a 2010 3.0 flex fuel owner I needed this cuz fuck labor costs for subpar work xD

Shop prices are insane I’ve had my 2012 3.0 flex fuel for a few years as a daily I’ve done water pump throttle body and maf, all easy to do myself then I wrecked it hard was able to save thousands replacing the entire front suspension at home because I bent everything and broke my rims and axles, these cars are very easy to work on compared to other fords

I did not see you blow out the holes with compressed air after you pulled out the coils.

I forget to be honest. I believe there is a clip that is secured by a metal tab...pull the metal tab and it can be pulled from the fuel rail

Ford uses spring couplings. One pipe inserts into the other. You can buy the cheapo plastic tool at Autozone (usually has like 5 or 6 sizes). They go around the tube and you slide it into the coupling housing to release the spring, then pull the two sections apart. I do not remember any clips when I did mine, but my car is an early 2010 (manufactured in June 2009), so there might be a change.

what brand and part number did you go with on the plugs

@KylePancis

5 жыл бұрын

Good question. Off the top of my head I don't remember. I did use my local parts store, so it must have been an oem part number

@kaotikdave

Hmmm, well you can get an OEM equivalent plug from virtually any manufacturer but you are going to have your different tiers ya know...like you coppers, platinum, Double Platinum, Iridium etc....do you remember roughly how much you paid? I work at a parts store lol...and I dont sell the Motorctaft platinum plugs that are recommended. Heard they were just relabeled NGK's...who knows though. Thanks for the instructional video though as I have the same car.

I’d take my car to you tbh this job is easy I just wish our cars were inline

Maybe cover gasket

he purchased a intake manifold gasket , he should have purchased an UPPER intake manifold gasket thats why he has left over gasket. Its about 15 bucks.

Skipped the main reason for me watching your video need to see how to remove back part on intake

Shouldn't you blow out the holes with compressed air after removing the coils but before removing the plugs?

@KylePancis

5 жыл бұрын

After is fine. But definitely before removing the plugs

Replacing spark plugs on this car is a pain and a puzzle

You left out the part about the hidden bracket underneath the intake manifold that has nearly inaccessible screws. This bracket was obviously put in place before the engine was dropped in and is a real bitch to get detached from the manifold after the fact.

@@KylePancis Thanks for the video, really helped with my tune up. Obviously it's not necessary, but found that removing the throttle body and battery made for easier access to the pain in the ass bracket...my two cents

You left out the bolts that hold the EGR valve onto the manifold...... that right there mad things 100× difficult next time you make a video make it easy for every last bolt. I'm currently stuck because non of these videos explain fully. Thanks for skipping passed the most difficult part

*Forgot to show people where to put the silicone so it doesn’t leak...*
