    If your arm is skinny enough, you can change all 4 plugs without removing any of the cowls or wipers. You have to do it blinded though, by feel. Just be super careful not to drop the screws for the ignition coils.

    Isn’t 13ft lbs too low? I thought that Honda updated that because of blow outs.

    Use a paint pen, and apply a strike all the way across the stud, the nut, and the wiper control arm, so that you can place all of it in same position later!!!

    • @paulh6591

      The nut turns, so obviously there is no point in marking it other than to confuse things. With the nut off, mark it if you wish..... but how do you know some other work was done and the wiper put back in a less than optimal position? Best to, after reassembly, allow the wiper system perform a cycle and park itself (with the wiper arms off) them place the wiper on on a logical, horizontal park position near the bottom of the windshield and lock them into place with the nuts.

    Love the video! Only thing I'll add as I'm sure many have - do not use high torque tools on the wiper blade nuts. The metal and threads on those nuts is beyond soft.
    Hand tighten to start and torque to 10lbs in order to avoid a junkyard run or a month long wait for parts.

    Im at 188,XXX. Should i get new coils as well? Gad mileage is currently 29mog, which is a lot lower than the 34+ I got when the car was at 175,XXX.

    What if you’re not missing all of your clips on the cowl? How do you get it off?

  • @jackle842000
    @jackle842000 3 місяці тому

    Is it 13 ft lbs or is that been updated to a higher torque? Thought there was problems with the original torque spec and they updated it cause the plugs were backing out

    You'd have to be an absolute doorknob to take all that stuff off the car just to change the spark plugs!
    You can reach them with your left hand. All you need is the 10mm to remove the coils and the spark plug socket. I changed them on my 2011 in 10 minutes.

    Sir how about the size of spark plug socket of honda fit gd1 2001?

    • @nameredacted1242
      @nameredacted1242 Рік тому +1

      STANDARD spark plug socket with a rubber insert. If I tell you socket size, you will try to use a regular socket not made for spark plug replacement, and fail miserably!

    • @paulh6591
      @paulh6591 Рік тому

      @@nameredacted1242 Don't be catty; There is no one standard. I have a dual-sided wrench for spark plugs in my box which is 13/20mm. 14 and 18mm spark plug sockets are also common. My other one is 13/16" one. The FIT takes a 16mm size deep well socket. A 5/8 inch (15.875 mm) one should work as well. If you don't have one specifically made to be a spark plug socket, just line a regular deep-socket 16mm socket with rubber.

  • @Shoeg4zer

    How do you know that the spark plugs have to be torqued to a certain # of lb/ft? How do you know how many lb/ft? How do you know that the bolts that hold the wiper transmission and cowl don't need to be torqued to a specific lb/ft? Why only replace 1 spark plug? Sorry if these seem like stupid questions, I'm a wrenchlet.

    • @JonathanMayhorn
      @JonathanMayhorn Рік тому +5

      Honda recommends 13lb/ft, but 20 is needed to prevent the common issue of plugs loosening and blowing out.

    What's the point of only replacing one of four spark plugs??? That's why I have not seen a YT video that is BS!

    • @nameismetatoo4591

      The rest are identical, so it would be pointless to show the rest of the procedure. Also if your local auto parts store only has low-quality or overpriced plugs and/or coils, it might make more sense to replace whichever cylinder is misfiring and order the remaining ones online.
