dude i love how you dont waste time over explaining shit. simple, well explained and short. My suzuki thanks you

Thank you again! This is why I always check with you first: I’ve always gapped my spark plugs by forcing the wedge in. I honestly thought the hole on the round tool was just for hanging it up, so tonight for the first time in my life I gapped my spark plugs correctly. Awesome!

Aha! There's more to the gapping tool than meets the eye. I can't believe that in all my years of hobby mechanics, going on 24 years, no one has ever showed me this. I knew that a gapping tool measured the gap of spark plugs but never had i seen how to use one to adjust the gap. So simple.

I always wondered what that round thing was as a kid. My father had one on his keychain for decades.

Thank you for this post!! You got RIGHT TO THE POINT!! Watched 4 other "How to change a spark plug" to get a refresher course (it's been 30 years since I did that) and the other 4 merely edited out the gapping part. They actually edited out a lot! SMH

I didn't know you could use that tool to adjust the plug I thought it was strictly measurement. Thanks for the great videos Chris, keep them coming! I've been watching all of them just to see what I can learn, and you always have something I didn't know, even in some of the easier projects.

This is some OG Chris Fix right here.

Great video .first time replacing thse kind of sparks

Thanks for a quick video with great info

Back when Chris Fix when was Christopher Fix. This is an oldie but goodie video.

I changed mine yesterday in my Altima and although the slight shaking of my car is completely gone (thankfully!) I now have a slight odor of gasoline coming through the vents when the heater it on. I knew this wasn't a coincidence and I read it "could be the gap" or the plugs are loose. (Yes, or something worse) I know I did the proper tightening, but I failed to pre check the gap like a moron. Dumb...dumb! Yeah I shouldn't have trusted "pre-gapped" I have to re do this tomorrow in the 20º wind chill nonsense. Thanks for this, I have the same tool.

Thanks for your videos man !

I've read several posts online that say this type of tool has notoriously wrong measurement scale as much as .06" compared to digital calipers, that's way too much for me. I guess IF you do this comparison between this gauge and caliper and now the variance you could use it taking that into account

thank you bro that was so f****** easy I'm sick and tired of all these other videos that they talk their s*** but they don't show you what you need to know thank you bro I appreciate that

Then you cannot spread anything but ignorance and hate.
