I am a single woman and would like to thank you so much for such a detailed video 😊 You saved me so much money by doing this myself. I broke one nail but it was worth it 🤣 I honestly didn't have the egr gasket on right the first time so I did it twice...Happy New Year 😁🎉
Dude ur a hero I love how you went step by step so show off everything and explained all the tools you need instead of some of these other dudes blowing through it like it's a damn race and keeping their camera in a fixed position
Thanks to all the automotive engineers whose designs have turned a simple operation into a complex pain in the butt. I've got 130K on the gold tip plugs and it still idles great. Until that changes, They will remain. Nice vid!
Thank you so much for this video. This is the first video that broke down all of the steps into clear, concise, and understandable terms. I own a 1999 Chrysler Cirrus 6 cylinder and the information that you gave in this video for this particular model gave me enough information to be able to figure out how to remove the manifold on my vehicle and get the spark plugs changed. Now all that I need to find is another video like this that shows how to replace the fuel pump on my vehicle.
Getting ready to change the plugs on my 09 Charger & also have the #1 fuel injector throwing a code. Fantastic video , to the point and extremely helpful. Thanks for taking the time to post the video. You know what your doing !!
This was probably the best video I’ve seen for this type of work. I was actually nervous about doing this myself, but after seeing you do it. I am confident that I can do it too. My dealership was wanting nearly $2,000 to do a simple spark plug job.

Your video really helped me I have a 2010 Dodge Challenger and this video really came through for me thank you good looking out man, thumbs up!
Of all the videos of this type I have watched, none of them cover installing the plenum gasket and EGR gasket. Also I learned how to correctly install a "crush" gasket. Thanks bro!
I'm half way through your video and I'd just like to say thank you on your walk thru I have a 07 charger that I plan on changing the spark plugs myself, saving some money. Your walk through is very throughough and helpful thank you Sir!
Great video. I like the helmet camera cuz show more details than the regular or any cellphone camera.
great video, simple easy to follow step by step, thanks might tackle my 2007 magnum this weekend
Very well done with just the right detail and narration, thanks!
Right on bro it took me way longer lol but followed you step by step I really liked how you talked in detail about each little thing again thank u I'm definitely subscribing!!!!
First class demonstration, explanation, and production. Keeping it plain, simple, and thorough.
Thanks walking my daughter through this tomorrow morn. R. I. P winter break!!
Great video, lots of detail witch helps get the job done right. One suggestion, put a piece of vacuum hose on top of the spark plugs while lowering into the chamber, this will help start threading the plug into the head then simply pull it of after a couple of turns.
Very good and complete video. Really gave me the knowledge needed to do this job.
Great video and excellent instructions all around. I totally appreciate your time and patience given on showing step by step procedure on completing this job. thank you very much, very helpful indeed.
Great video. Your explanations were very clear and you showed how to do something where there was a possible question.
thanks for the video,doing my mom's charger in the morning. Glad I watched this. Only one so far, with the torque specs on install. Thank you

Debbie Spring how'd it go? I have a 2010 charger I'm about to work on. Any advise?
Great video. I like how he shows the do's and dont's.
Great tutorial, the video and narration was solid man!
Amazing video! Just changed my plugs today in my 2010 Charger. Highly recommend 💯
Thank you for this video. Your very good at explaining everything.
Thanks man ur video helped me do a full tune up ..i appreciate it
Great video! Very detailed and very descriptive. Thank you!
Amazing sir! Thank you. Feeling confident at my attempt. You're saving me a financial headache.
Thank you for this video after 1 hour of just repeating the video but I got them on my car thanks again
Thank You This video helps me out a lot. I just bought a 2007 Dodge Charger stx with a 3.5 liter . I also need to replace the spark plugs .
Best video I seen all week
This video really helped. My red lightning light came on and yesterday and I believe a bad gasket on my egr is the reason. Im going to clean the throttle body while im under there. Hopefully I wont have to buy a new throttle body.
Thank you for the tutorial. Followed it. Forgot to seat EGR gasket properly. Took it apart again but now working well. 2005 300 limited 269,000 miles car. My ld little lady neighbor got her money's worth out of it.
This video helped me get the job done. Thanks man, much appreciated.
Thank you for posting this video, Very helpful. Now I know it will take a day to do lol.
Thank you for this, perfect job
Thanks for posting up a great video. Straight to the point, and without rambling on. If I could make one suggestion, while you have the upper intake off, it would be a great time to replace the PCV valve. They are a bear to replace with the intake in position. Semper Fi.

Ron Walsh it’s actually pretty easy to change Pcv valve I did it yesterday and removed the purge valve and then used screwdriver to remove the hose to Pcv valve and used 24mm socket..
super helpful. and easy. thanks for posting!
Timeless video thank you so much 💫
Had no luck trying to remove the intake and did not want to remove the cross bar. After 45 minutes 😬. I tied a rope to hood hook and intake, this gave me enough clearance to change all the spark plugs.
Thank you help me build up my confidents
Thanks for posting the video
Solid video man!
You are GOOD dude! Great job!
Great video!! Thank you for your time!
Great video.. Just Fyi for the new diyers. Be careful gapping the spark plugs to not break the tip on the plug.. Also it be better using a good spark plug socket that will hold the plug.. Dropping the plugs in take a risk of closing in the gap.

I was about to type this lol but decided to check the comments, It's a good video, but as you stated be careful when gappin and I would not drop the spark plugs in.
3/18/2020 you are the man dude thank you for the helpful info
Damn bruh.. I'm just gonna take it to the shop... great video though!

Very best explanation video, I have seem thanks do much.
Wow great job brother.
Hi Autorex. Do you have a video on how to remove or how to replace the rocker arm assemblies on a 2010 Dodge Challenger 3.5L?
Great video, I learned a lot about my 2010 charger by watching watching this video, I've never seen spark plugs on the top of the valve covers except on a Hemi, is that considered a Hemi? & when did Chrysler do away with the distributor cap?
the only problem i have with this is never start wrenching out the spark plugs like he did in this video, you run the risk of breaking them inside, use steady pressure to crack them open then gradually wrench it out, not full on force like this guy did but otherwise this is one of the better examples on youtube of sparkplugs for a 300
Ty great to get a lesson from another lefty
Thanks help me a lot
Well done!
Great video . After the teardown you did is it much more work to change an injector i have thats throwing a code and needs to be replaced? Thanks
I have an ‘09 300 Touring with 150k miles and it is due for new plugs. I didn’t realize you have to rebuild the engine to replace the plugs. LMAO. I’ll take it to the shop for this one. Sheesh.
He made it look simple
I think doing one plug at a time would be safer keeping from something falling into open plug ports but other than that great video thanks
did this once awhile ago didnt quite get the egr tube gasket back in when i did that had some trouble starting when it was really cold out like it couldnt starve the motor or choke it enough to start. would just pull to much air thru the hole then like a intake leak
Dropping the plugs into the holes will definitely affect the Gap you just set so definitely the seat the plug into the rubber holder in socket
Damn good camera view!! But u could of used a leaf blower to blow those leafs off the wipers n windshield.. lol

How long is you extension to reach the sparkplugs? Thanks!
Great video but I do agree with Walsh and change the PC valve or at minimum the small round silicone seal that goes on the back of the intake. Also be sure to put anti seize compound on the spark plug threads.

Good job
Cool thanks
I read on here that you guys suggest using only champion plugs. What about the ignition coil? What brand matters on those?
Thanks for the heads-up on the EGR. Did you have to loosen the lower fasteners on the valve before taking out the tube?

That's what I wanted to know also.
On a windy day your lucky all those leaves on the wipers did not blow into the engine!
Better vid than the big dollar vids lol
I have a chrysler 300 3.5L 2005 when my car is cold, it works well when it goes near normal temperature with emergency transmission and it does not pass me 3500-4000rpm and put it in the computer with the camshaft position sensor P0016 I changed it and brought me the same problem again
I would like to replace my sparkplugs for 2018 Chrysler 300 3.5L . Do you have any video for it?
What other sizes can u use to take off the bottom bolt where is clamped on the throttle body
Trick is to remove the upper cross bar and it will give you room just do not over tighten the bolts they will snap

Thanks bro.good video.
thank you
Nice instruction, but harder than it looks like 😅✌🏾
No mention of the EGR tube? If you don't loosen it will be harder to remove and reinstall the upper plenum.
nice video, what are those two Actuators for .

I believe they are intake manifold runners (valves , actuators they are about 200-300 each
I like the video but damn my OCD on them leaves by the windshield is killing me lol
I have this same motor on my dodge charger changed spark plugs and coils and still getting misfire on cylinder 1 ignition coil (A) is that the first one on the passenger side if not what one is it
Torque specs for the plugs?
I did mine today be careful I had one spark all the porcelain break off and fell into the whole landed on top of the cylinder. Took me 3 hours to get it out smh! Also make sure that egr valve is all the way in or you car could go into limp mode etc light pops up
Dayum, talk about labor-intensive... I miss my 57 chevy
I just did this yesterday with your help. Fuck that EGR Tube!! I had to put it as I was setting in the plenum. 2008 with 220000k
Question when cold no propbems but when up to temp oil light goes on whem idling i get out check the big grey part where spark plugs are at its pretty dam hot also egr valve is bad ig would that cause it running hot but not my coolant system
I need to see the 2008 3.5 engine Chrysler Sebring, to replace the spark plug? The engine is sideways on the 2008 Sebring
Did you change your exhaust on it?
Thanks for great video. I had Chrysler dealer change mine. About an hour of driving the car over heated. They had forgot to re-connect something for this to happen? Or is it a separate issue?

That’s why you do you own mechanic work and don’t never trust dealerships
You didn't put a new gasket on?
muy bien muy bien brother 👍
Question: wouldn't you want to change the coils, wires and gas filter (if applicable) when you tune the car up ? Thanks

Gas filter is in the gas tank. External gas filters are becoming rare.
Is incredible how motors had changed with time , the .more newer the more complexity
