    everyone always forgets to mention, always warm the engine up for a few minutes before removing the spark plugs. not hot, just warm. Makes it much easier to remove corroded thread plugs and better for the head.

    After you raise the red tab on the coil connector, use you thumb and push down on the black tab. That will release the connector and it pulls off easily without breaking anything at that point.

    Hey man. So I have a bolt that broke off, i cannot back it out with pliers. I seriously dont think its coming out, it seems rusted right in.. Any tips on getting the boot to stay in place snugger? Jb weld? Duct seal? Like it holds itself there alright but its not tight tight. Would having it not pressed tight with a bolt create issues being not a perfect seal?

    I had the exact same issue, and I didn't have an issue with it pushed in for months. One thing you can add are the coil covers. These covers came stock on the Mustang, but Ford kept them off the trucks. Since they weren't on the trucks, those coil pack bolts rust out and have broken on a lot of people's cars. I wouldn't use JB Weld because you will have an issue getting it back off when you need to. This summer I'll be replacing my valve covers to fix this issue.

    2018 f150 changing plug wire and cylinder 3 do you need to remove the high pressure fuel line

  • @TrickShiftGarage

    @TrickShiftGarage

    Жыл бұрын

    Hello Grey, so I was unaware of this issue. I revised the videos title from 2011-2023, to 2011-2017. After researching, it does appear that you need to disconnect the fuel line around cylinder 3. I'm not sure if this works or not, but one guy mentioned to keep your driver door closed and open the passenger side to pop your hood. According to him, when you open the driver door, it will prime that high pressure fuel pump. So if you go through the passenger side, it should prevent fuel from just spilling out. He said he had a few drops and that was it. I hope this helps, and I am sorry for the confusion.

    On the 2013, do the boots ever break off in the spark plug well and\or need replacing with the plug?

  • @TrickShiftGarage

    @TrickShiftGarage

    4 ай бұрын

    I've never had a boot break, but you should always inspect yours for cracks or wear. Eventually, the boots will need to be replaced. When they need to be replaced is a different question altogether. Some people can go hundreds of thousands of miles on the factory coil packs, others need to replace after 100k. So check yours thoroughly to make sure you don't run into issues later on.

    Hello, I'm sorry for the really really late response! I didn't notice this comment until I got on my computer. But, after doing some research, one website said to torque the plugs on the 2015-2017 down to 10 ft. lbs and another said to torque them down to 12. If I had a 2015-2017, I would torque them down to 12 ft. lbs, since there aren't a ton of differences between the Gen 1 and Gen 2 coyote motors. The Gen 3's are a completely different story though. Again, I apologize for being so late on this. I'm not sure why this comment did not show up on my phone app, but I will try to get on my computer daily from now on to prevent missing these comments.

    If the spark plug can thread into place, then the antiseize used will not prevent the spark plug from grounding. Think about it: spark plugs aren't loose when you screw them in. What does that mean? It means the part or all of the threads are tight in the head. If it's tight, it's touching. Meaning: it's grounded properly.

    ​@@TrickShiftGarage It's intended to fill any gap between the porcelain and the boot itself. Ideally, you wouldn't want to get any on the actual metal bulb or the clip inside the boot, as dielectric grease is NOT conductive. But as you said, most people assume it's conductive and pay no care to how it's applied, and it's unlikely to cause any issue. But the statement that it improves the connection is technically false.
