Thank you for this video, I was able to change the spark plugs and coil packs on my Acura RSX and the difference is amazing. Thanks a lot, it was so easy.
Если вы еще следите за каналом, подскажите, пожалуйста, такую вещь. Сегодня пытался на Акуре РСХ разогнаться, чтобы VTEC сработал, но вместо этого сначала замигага лампочка check engine, а потом и вовсе стала гореть постоянно. Коды ошибок Р0302, Р03043 Р0304, Р0300 Random/Multiple cylinder misfire. На звук машину не троит, не трясет, едет нормально без дерганий, тянет тоже хорошо, пока до VTEC оборотов не доходит, так что не похоже на свечи или катушки. Движок не стучит, характерного клапанного звука нет вроде. Но в чем тогда проблема? Прогорел или погнулся клапан? Цепь ГРМ в рассинхроне? Сильно течет прокладка головки блока? Буду признателен помощи советом.
Thanks for the awesome and very clear tutorial. Quick question: How long of an extension do you need to get the spark plugs out? Looks like 6 inch but not 100% sure from just looking.
When you pick them up, just specify the make and model of your car. They should give you the right ones. Here are the specs for rsx base and type s: K20A3 (Base model): NGK - IZFR6K-11 DENSO - SKJ20DR-M11 K20A2 (Type S): NGK - IFR7G-11K DENSO - SK22PR-M11 They have them online as well: 1. Acura RSX Base (K20A3 Engine) - Denso (3377) SKJ20DR-M11 Iridium Spark Plug, Pack of 1 - amzn.to/3UkHymE. 2. Acura RSX Type S (K20A2 Engine) - Denso (3372) SK22PR-M11 Iridium Spark Plug, Pack of 1 - amzn.to/3Kg9gMt.
It is very recommended. If you don't tighten it enough, the plug may eventually become loose and come out. If you overtighten it enough, you could damage the thread and cause even more problems.
That's because the anti seize lubricates the threads and can cause over-torquing. The real torque spec for RSX spark plugs is 17 pounds, but these guys lowered it to 13 so that they don't destroy the threads

What tools did you use?
Helped me successfully replace my spark plugs, thank you!
How often should you change the coils?
Really appreciate the RSX videos!!!
Thank you!
Do not attempt this while engine is running and driving down the road.
What socket did you use to remove the middle bolts sticking out I’m having trouble removing them for some reason
thank you so much for this. you took your time and i love it.
What tools were used and sizes

Здравствуйте, попробуйте поменять масло.
@@MorozovAutomotive меняли, не помогло.
thank you sir, as always! Спасибо!
Hey good video but you didnt mention what size of the tools you're using
5/8" spark plug socket an extension and a ratchet, torque wrench optional.
Thanks for the awesome and very clear tutorial. Quick question: How long of an extension do you need to get the spark plugs out? Looks like 6 inch but not 100% sure from just looking.
Yep, it is 6 inch.
Thank you for the help, did it myself!!
gracias ... super easy 🤗
Stupid question but can I do each one individually and does the battery have to be disconnected
Yes, you can replace them individually. But it makes sense to replace all at once if they are the same age. You don't need to disconnect the battery.
What size spark plug are you using? I need to make sure I pick up the right ones. Thanks.
When you pick them up, just specify the make and model of your car. They should give you the right ones. Here are the specs for rsx base and type s:
K20A3 (Base model):
NGK - IZFR6K-11
DENSO - SKJ20DR-M11
K20A2 (Type S):
NGK - IFR7G-11K
DENSO - SK22PR-M11
They have them online as well:
1. Acura RSX Base (K20A3 Engine) - Denso (3377) SKJ20DR-M11 Iridium Spark Plug, Pack of 1 - amzn.to/3UkHymE.
2. Acura RSX Type S (K20A2 Engine) - Denso (3372) SK22PR-M11 Iridium Spark Plug, Pack of 1 - amzn.to/3Kg9gMt.
Do i need a tune after changing spark plugs?
No , but throttle body and injector cleaning + oil change before spark plug replacement might improve engine operation.
How many spark plugs do I need,
That depends on the number or horsepower and torque your vehicle has.
What length extension was used?
6" extension.
Thank you for the video
Thanks! Question is the torque wrench necessary?
It is very recommended. If you don't tighten it enough, the plug may eventually become loose and come out. If you overtighten it enough, you could damage the thread and cause even more problems.
Never work on your car while ithe engine is hot.. I learned the hard way
Mark Shields duh
Thank you maestro
Thanks for the upload.
Anti seize? Denso & NGK recommend no anti seize.
That's because the anti seize lubricates the threads and can cause over-torquing. The real torque spec for RSX spark plugs is 17 pounds, but these guys lowered it to 13 so that they don't destroy the threads
Thank You!
You are welcome.
spark plug gap PLEASE< thanks.
Spark Plug Gap: 0.04 in (1.1 mm).
thanks....
and then you have Subarus
