Man, I came here thinking I could get a head start, and help my husband change out my wires. Now I think I'll just have a warm dinner waiting on him when he's done! 🤣🤦🏻♀️
Lmao
I'm sure he loves the hell out of you lol
Way to a man's heart is through his stomach, good for you!
Changed mine yesterday. At 62, it kicked my but but got it done in 4 hours! AC Plugs and opted for NGK because they were free. I used a GearWrench short magnet swivel. And yes, I did change #8 !!
Great job, yeah the owrst part is Ab/stomach painnfrom leaning over the radiator/engine, etc.

This is the way ... and pliers type spark plug removal tool.
This video answered so many questions for me even being this old, my fathers been a mechanic with FedEx for almost 30 years and still got a headache from tryin to get the #8 spark plug and wire off. We ended up giving up on it and the one next to it but I’m gonna try and change it out tomorrow, wish me luck 👍🏼
Good luck. If you buy new wires ahead of time you dont have to be as careful either. Because if you break.the wire you have extras.

Do not dispense with the metal sleeves. They are there to shield the rubber boot from high heat of exhaust manifold!
2nd time changing my plugs and wires and I only bought 7 for a reason! lol! Great video!
Thanks for watching and the compliments. We hope the video helped you.
Good luck.

Thank you so much. No other video talks about those metal boots and the tool to get it off.
Your welcome, some peopl say they use needle nose pliers, but they would not come off for me with needle nose that is why I ordered this tool.
I put a link to it in the description, it would be awesome if you bought it there and helped me oit.
Thanks again for watching.

Mine are popping right off. Thanks for the heads up for that heat shield side. I have done the easy side so far. I did read and decided to keep the metal things on. Gotta love engineers! Lol
Good video 👏 I respect that you don't claim to be a mechanical genius, but point out the fact that mechanics and shops rip people off, because 99% of them do 👍 This video definitely makes me want to try to do mine on my truck
It really not that bad, just lay a cushion over the engine so you chest and stomache dont hurt. Also make sure you buy new wires ahead of time, because their is a good chance you will pop the boots off when pulling them.
Good luck and thanks for watching.

Are Jay, I changed 7 Spark Plugs in my 2011 Tahoe. I was hoping I could find out who the 'Engineer' was who placed that #8 Plug in such a ridiculous location. I want that Clown to do a Video and show Us how to change that Plug... Great Video!
Im not sure if engineers have ever had to operate or work on a vehicle by all the messes ive seen.

Thanks for the Video. I had the same tool to remove the metal boot but I found it easier and faster to use right angle pliers. The trick is to pull on the pliers while also pulling off the rubber boot. Hopefully, this helps someone else.
I gave a thumbs up for your wife's patience.😇
Thanks RJ,

hey thanks for this !
i am that dirt floor, backyard, creeper stuck in the rocks, can’t even sweet talk even my truck’s engine bay in to my 8x9 garage bc who’s idea was an 8x9 garage anyway (?), DIY shecanic & sometimes, (most times), i find myself in a very heated brawl with some part on the truck that does this kinda BS.
so, i arrived to this project after the roadside assistance fella - who, in a very genuinely kind hearted attempt to assist me after i kinda accidentally overfilled the ATF after rebuilding my VB - had surmised with me what was actually us both mistaking the symptoms for an under-fill & he was being a good human & trying to help & was pouring a small bit of ATF in the dipstick & had a whoopsie & kinda lit my engine bay on fire for a good 2 seconds & so that was terrifying & so needless to say - truck got towed home. thankfully the only damage was the rear most passenger spark plug wire & hardly but any damage needs replacing (esp after you know, like, a fire) so… in theory, this sounded like an easy job to me… no. easy job, impossible task. i about lit it on fire again & threw myself in the dumpster that it has become.
but then i found your video so thanks for this.
even after the fire. i’m doing it my damn self.
if i had the money i wouldn’t have an engine that catches fire anyway, so.
all in good fun.
😩
Hey Lex thanks for watching. We are in the same boat. I have on occasion got the back end in the garage to work on shocks/suspension but would have to go inside and out the front door to get around front if I need anything.
I actually annoy my wife with every few weeks or so, call her to look and say if it was just 1 foot wider we could do so much stuff in our garage. But unfortunately that is not in the cards for us.

I thought the right side of the engine was bad! The I seen the last plug on the right side! I’m dreading it tomorrow I hate it! I needed a crow bar for leverage to get the boot off. It’s a pain in the ass and could take all day! Thanks for sharing!!

My tahoe is lifted and all but the 8th is super easybto get too but #8 still looks like a pain but goin to tackle it soon
Can i use this spark plugs for my escalade ext 2007?
That last plug boot can come off in about 5 seconds by squeezing it with a pair decent needle nose pliers and prying it out using the exhaust manifold as the fulcrum.
Man I just got thru doing spark plugs and wires on a 07 Silverado and what I had to do was get a pair of pliers and pulled the wires out with the pliers. Of course the wires broke then I was able to pull those heat shields off. I also had to use the pliers to pull the connector of the plug so I could use my socket to get the spark plug.
Yes they can be a real pain in the...

How did you get too the one next to the oil dipstick?
I just changed the plugs on my 2012 suburban 5.3 did them in 45 min
Only used swivel socket and wrench
Trick I used to remove the boots i spin them with my fingers and they popped off after a couple of turns
Only cut my finger a bit
Thanks !
Sir, this was a huge help and I thank you very much! you seem like a fella that could give 2 sh!ts about others commentary but those peeps leaving negative comments are calling themselves out for their own stupidity. thanks again and carpe diem.
Thanks, Im glad the video helped you out. Yeah unfortunately 90% of youtube comments are people bashing you. I just try to make videos that are realistic repairs on what you could face working in your own driveway.

Here is my playlist of repairs I have done on this truck so far in case you need them in the future.
They are probably 'Engineers' that were called out, because they are White Collar Clowns with a piece of paper. They probably never work on the Crappy designs that they create. Are Jay sounded like myself, cursing out these Jackasses, lol.
I tossed the heat shields for the plug wires, just replace the wires every year when i do my yearly tune up, and yes i know its over kill but its my truck😂
It would be nice to know the mileage on the vehicle, and to hear it start afterwards.
Just doing it right now n my tahoe dont have the metal booth,but the new wires does,so kinda undecided if i should keep them on or not,cuz none of the old ones gave me problems without them
Mine have been fine without the metal boots, so I personally wouldnt ad them especially since yours already didnt have them.
Whatever you choose good luck and thanks for watching.

Sir, with all respect, there is a much easier way. Hose pliers and a bit of gentle wiggling is all it takes to detach the plug boots and heat shields. Put the heat shields back on the plug boots, they only slip over the plug boot and don't make a difference in difficulty of removing or installing the plug boots.
The clearance changes dramatically between years and power options. My 03... was a nightmare..
Whats the tool name. I can't find it.
Bro you squeeze push an pull the shield no pliers needed the same since the early 90s
Last spark plug has to be remove from the bottom or the side
That great gm feeling v4 v8 crapolla
You need a little bit of dielectric grease on each boot before you put them on
You're cracking me up... most people don't broadcast ignorance.
I just did mine yesterday. It was no where near as difficult as this video makes it look. I just used a hose plier and pulled on the boot. the heat shields and all popped right off. Also able to get the #8 from the top, but I had to lay on top of the engine. If this job is too hard for you, you are not qualified to be teaching it.
Lol my thoughts exactly. I wouldn’t let this crack head anywhere near my stuff.
But y’all here watching it smh think before you write DA.!
I'll write what I want, thanks. And if you had a clue, you'd know what I wrote was correct.
Lol your actually correct I’m doing it right now and all I did was pull the wires of with my bare hands lol with a little twist of the metal to the left
But question I’m having trouble matching up the holes and tightening the 1st passenger side spark plug .. it’s righty tighty correct? Lll it won’t catch
At 14:16 I notice when you were placing the wires back in you didn’t have the metal boot back on.
Ok video would like to hear it run and know it’s done right
Hey RJ. I think I made a tool to take off the plug wire heat shield with ease if you're interested let me know and I'll show it to you.
Really good video. Kept it real other videos make it look so easy witch is BS cause it’s not that easy. Lol. Good video
I was thinking of doing this job myself but now I've reconsidered. I'll just keep paying mechanics to rip me off. Let them bust their knuckles. The last mechanic just replaced one spark plug wire in the back for some reason and I have a feeling they didn't change all the plugs either. $300 or $400 just to replace spark plugs.
Tired of you people saying we're ripping you off. It's costs thousands and thousands just to do this job. But when you need a little section of a water pipe replaced in your house and they hit you for $1,000 I don't see anyone whining. You people are clowns
You need those heat shields or your wires will melt
Nope, they can help in some instances, I have actually had the heat shield's press against a wire and melt cut through them, most older vehicles never had heat shields and were fine.
If I have heat shields still then I'm putting them back on. 😂
Do you have the tool part number

Yooo I’ve done this before and it was the easiest job ever. The difficulty is Really over exaggerated... might be discouraging for your viewers....
Ya, all I can say is wow!
you made changing plugs on this unit sound so difficult .which it is not ,almost gave me a head ache listening to it.
Imagine if this is your mechanic 😬
nothing wrong with preparing someone for the worst case scenario. thanks for are jay for the help
Went to change my plugs as I've done all my life but noooooo GM had to make a simple job difficult.
Exactly. Its like they are intentionally trying to destroy the vehicles so we have to get a new one every 5 years.

You got this, just take your time relax and remember to buy new plugs and wires before starting. Because there is a good chance you are gonna break a wire or two.
I have links in the description to wires and plugs I think.

I sure you hope used some anti-sieze on the plug threads to save the next guys arms and knuckles!
There will never be a next guy. I'm a ride it till it dies or junkyard. I have never understood the selling of vehicles. Because if it's good enough to pass on to someone else, it's still good enough for you.

in AZ it's about 750$ parts and labor
$225 In Louisiana
Other vids show needle nose players grabbing at the top of the metal with no issues or fiddling🤣🤣👍👍
Just from looking at the tool and the spring it looks like the tool is made to pull back on the spring to allow the boot and metal case to come off. If you've ever tried to pull a spring off of anything when you pull on the opposite end off it it only gets tighter on what you're trying to pull it off of, it's like a Chinese finger cuffs. If you use the tool to pull the spring backwards you should be able to pull the plug off easily.........just my observation....just saying.....
A shop jus chargers 120.00 for this job
Most people dont have $120 anymore.

these things are stupid!!
This is the most useless video I seen I have never used that stupid tool to get wires out on a 5.3 LS . It took me 30 minutes to do both sides LMAO 🤣😂😂 😂😂 thanks for the laugh.
