Great video guys. I worked for LAPD for 21 years and i torqued all suspension bolts, nuts, spark plugs and of course all brake caliper bolts and even bleeder screws. You'd be surprised how many people didn't even torque the lug nuts or the intake manifold bolts. I have all the torque wrenches, quarter drive, 3/8 drive and half inch. Plus i marked every bolts to make sure that i torqued them. Thanks for reminding all technicians to be professional at their job.

Every time I get brake pads replaced. I have to get new rotors, (because nobody uses a torque wrench on lug nuts).

I have been changing sparkplugs for over 40 years and have never used anti-seize on the threads. I was told years ago that the addition of anti-seize to the threads will mess with the torque specs if you use a torque wrench to torque them down. I have read that some manufacturers do not recommend using it, but I can't remember which ones off the top of my head. I have always used dielectric grease in the boots though. Great video as usual.

Always use antiseaze unless the mfg says not too. It helps heat transfer and will extend the life of the plug aswell as helps ensure proper torque.

I've been a shade tree for 60 years or so. Before I do anything, I always blow compressed air into the depression where the plug resides. Then I loosen the plugs and blow them again. If, like most, the car has a COP, I blow off all around the COP, then remove it. Only takes a minute or so, and keeps sand, small pebbles and the like out of the combustion chamber. Please take this as I wrote it...a hint, not a knock on you. You have forgotten more than I ever knew. Great videos and kindness to spare.

A few additional things to consider , #1 Make sure the springs are still inside the boots when your putting the coils back on , sometimes they fall out without you even realizing it. #2 Look inside and clean out the wells before removing the plugs. Many times the wells are filled with oil / debris. #3 inspect the boots for any signs of arcing. Even a pinhole is going to be a problem.

Why not replace the rubber boots so you don't have an issue before the spark plugs require changing again. With some V6s the intake manifold has to be removed to change the spark plugs. It would suck to have to do that work again.

I would have never pulled those plugs out without blowing out the well, cracking the plug lose and then blowing the well out a second time.

The electrical connectors unlock more easily if you push the connector in further to relieve pressure on the lock tab before attempting to release it. I recommend blowing the area around the plug out with compressed air after loosening the plug a couple of turns to prevent any debris from falling into the cylinder. I used to use anti-seize on aluminum heads when they first became more common ~40 years ago and it was common for plugs to seize in the heads. Probably different aluminum alloys and/or coatings on plugs seem to have solved the seizing problem a long time ago. I can't remember the last time I wasn't able to remove a plug without some sort of damage.

Great video. Thanks. I’ve seen the debate over use of anti-seize. I’m a DIY person who uses it with no issues. I’m sure they’ll be comments about what can go wrong but those people never seem to show any videos about the “wrongs” happening but just prefer to comment and troll on other people’s videos.

I always spray brake clean followed by air after removing boots. Then remove the spark plugs. Thanks for the videos as I do not work on vehicles for a living. I just thirst for knowledge. Love the diag videos as well. ❤

Great advice! In addition to your process, I will take a shop vac or compressed air and clean out any debris in the plug recess prior to removing the spark plug. Yes, it's overkill, but you may be surprised what can get in that recess.

All I have to say down here is that yeah, plugs seem like one of the easiest jobs, and in many cases they are, but they're spooky, and mission-critical. I know a lot of the trucks have absolute nightmare plugs, many of the cars do, and even on "easy" inline 4 cylinders it's always a relief when they come out clean and don't bring the threads with them, and another relief when they snug down firm and don't keep spinning with the wrench.

Thanks for your video. I've never used ant seize on spark plugs, but I see it because of the complexity of these new cars . Great advice about not using gun on them, coil bolts people have gone crazy using gun on everything on these cars .That makes sense about calibrating your elbows once in a while using torque wrench .

A sprits of interior detailing spray on those connector clips helps a lot, lubricates them so they slide apart.

Let me tell you sir, the best brand spark plug i have used is the brand Beru. This brand is known to have a very reliable spark for a long time! Second brand for me is the Ngk. Outside of these 2 brands, I've noticed power loss to my experiences. but I have also noticed that some cars only run well on the Oem spark plugs, and other than that sluggish.

@israel9294

I always use spark plugs from the dealer original only. Some want a different better long lasting brand but there is a downside to using these other brands that last longer. The longer your spark plugs stay in your engine the more likely they are to seize with the heat and corrosion over time.

Great video. I believe the general guidance with regard to anti-seize that the torque needs to be reduced by 20% from the spec torque. The reason for this is your introducing a hydraulic compound on the threads and the plug shouldn’t be torque to full value because in fact with the compound you’d be overtorquing them as well. As well, there is some debate about reducing torque when using anti-seize, but the general consensus said it should be reduced. That said I appreciate your video and your expertise and how you do this.

Put a light film of copper anti seize on your wiper blades. It makes the wipers last twice as long and keeps the window clean as can be. :)

Thanks a lot for the video..

Great video. I never use a socket to start the threads. It is too easy to crossthread them. I always use a small piece of rubber tubing on the porcelain end to feed it into the hole and now you will not have enough torque to damage the threads if it isn't perpendicular to the hole because it will spin around the end before getting stuck. I turn the plug left to loosen it until I feel/hear it drop and change direction because I know the threads are lined up. You can't feel that through a socket either. Many cars such as Mercedes and Infiniti require properly torqued plugs because they are indexed, meaning the spark has to be at the correct angle and direction to ensure proper combustion.

Great video Sherwood. I like your meticulous work ethics.

i gotta admit im surprised by this video from you guys. longtime subscriber to your channel and a ASE Master with L1, L3 and L4 here myself. 1st never use a gap gauge on most modern spark plugs. Feeler gauges or those set wire gauge. 2nd a big no no is to add anti seize to the threads. Most every spark plug manufacturer will tell you that. a neat trick to start the spark plus is to use a piece of rubber fuel line to start them. I have the plug starters made by a few people but also have rubber fuel line in different lengths 6in, 12in and 18in in my plug tool drawer

"Royalty auto service"! For the descendants of George Washington amusing name. Very interesting and helpful vid, and as a DIY driveway monkey very impressed with the spread of tools and equipment. FYI my son's Jaguar and wife's BMW, the spark plugs were £25 each from the main stealer .(each having the car makers name on) A little after the event, research, revealed both used a specific NGK spark plug, at nearly half the price.

Do manufacturers make the gap small so that as the plug ages the gap increases into the oem spec? I replaced plugs on a VW last year, and the OEM recommended new plugs had gaps that were all 0.2 mm too small out the box. I double checked it with two plug checkers, being sure not to damage the platinum coating. I used the exact brand specified by the dealer repair manual. After a little head scratching I decided to grab the neutral pole in a vice (on the sides so the platinum coating was not affected) and gently increase the gap, but I wondered if I might have been better to simply install them with a small gap....

Anti-seize NGK spark plugs feature trivalent plating. This silver or chrome-colored finish on the threads is designed to provide corrosion resistance against moisture and chemicals. The coating also acts as a release agent during spark plug removal. NGK spark plugs are installed at the factory dry, without lubrication or anti-seize. Anti-seize can act as a lubricant, altering torque values up to 20 percent, increasing the risk of spark plug thread breakage and/or metal shell stretch. Thread breakage can sometimes involve removing the cylinder head for repair. Metal shell stretch changes the heat rating of the spark plug and can result in serious engine damage caused by pre-ignition. Do not use anti-seize or lubricant on NGK spark plugs. It is completely unnecessary and can be detrimental.

Might be an edge case, but I drive a Honda Fit that uses NGK plugs and they recommend using anti seize on the threads in their service manual. The manual did update to call for 20ftlb instead of 13ftlb on the plugs though so I would wonder if calling for anti seize was the reason for them to increase the torque spec.

I have been using aluminum Anti seize for spark plugs. I am curious why it is a good practice to use copper. Does using aluminum grease react with the metals? Look forward to your response.

I use a rubber hose to get the plugs started instead of the fancy magnetic spark plug socket for hard to reach plugs

Glad to see you using a dab of antiseize, a touch of silicone, and hand starting as well. On top of that, I always clean and blow out the spark plug well before removing the old plug. Always have the new plug ready BEFORE hand so the time for the exposed hole is minimal. Also, I use a thread ROLLER (TIME-SERT; 👍 this is NOT a thread chaser) and finally install the new plug

Do not use anti-seize with modern engines or spark plugs. No manufacture uses anti-seize and most modern spark plug manufactures say it will ruin the special coating.

As stated multiple times anti- seize is not recommended. The video states this a a 2016 Ram 1500 with a 5.7 l engine. The plugs being installed are clearly champion 9055 . If you look up the spec for these plugs they come pre-gapped to 0.054. they make it sound like some how they came gapped incorrectly or have been damaged in shipping.. This clearly not the case. Champion states when using these plugs in this application they need to be gapped down to 0.044". . Tech tip here. just because you buy a spark plug for a certain vehicle does not mean they are drop in.. al;ways look up the specifications of the part being installed. These guys cleanly did not do this

Ford states not to use dielectric grease on most of their coils if you're familiar with wsm amd ford procedures

About to watch the video these guys are great but no anti seize just hand tight with a ratchet and of course the material and gap has to be correct. With die electric grease on bottom of coil and connector that's it that's all.

Not going to say I disagree with any of your video But most manufactures say do not put any antiseize of any kind on a spark plug install them dry. Well I do what you do I wish I could explain it more but why do you do such. I agree with your whole video Many would say we are wrong. Whats your thoughts?

I wish you’d mentioned why you don’t use aluminum anti-seize.

Good video, but I don’t agree on the use of copper grease. Zinc & nickel plated spark plugs you really shouldn’t put copper grease on. The copper can cause galvanic corrosion with aluminium heads. This is a minor issue. Major issue is torque. You can offset the torque up to 20% (usually too tight) Also most big manufacturers (NGK - Champion - Denso etcetera) recommend not using any type of anti-seize other than the galvanic coating which they come with from factory. You can use anti-seize on black metal spark plugs, I can’t remember what metal alloy that is. I personally never saw this type installed in a modern car.

In May 2024 I will have 40 years as a certified mechanic,33 years as a Master. I also have master tech with Toyota,Nissan,Chrysler/Dodge and BMW. But who cares about that. I do know that during Chrysler factory training in Ontario California we would joke that someone from Champion plug’s took someone from Chrysler to some nice dinners and probably (other places) My point is that as a Master mechanic I wouldn’t even put a “ Champion “ plug in my lawnmower , that was the general consensus among us factory mechanics.
