    Great video - easy to follow. Took this neophyte 2 hours to finish, but well worth the time. Can't imaging what I would have had to pay a shop to do this.

    Everyone is a critic and knows more. Yet they didn't make a video to help people out.
    If you need a person to hold your hand & break down verbal commands as if your a child. I " strongly recommend " you don't DIY this. Pay to have it done.
    Thanks for the video.

    Wow, what happened to just pulling the boots off the plugs and taking out a spark plug? What a PIA this looks like. throwing P0304 #4 cylinder code for plug and/or coil.....not looking forward to this debacle to dissemble for what should take 5 minutes on a normal older vehicle....So how long is the process for a typical billed change? Looks worth it to have if its only 1 hour charge.

    this hose that hose is really confusing. please try to be little specific next time like coolant hose, fuel hose and also the reason why are we disconnecting them. and same for the bolts, "loosen these 8mm bolts on left of the alternator" will be more helpful

  • @jasonbrunk3973

    Should I replace the coils on each one?
    What about gaps? How do I make sure the plus have the right gap?

    I did exactly that and now I have. A heck engine light and the truck idles a bit more than usual. It’s a misfire but what did I do wrong. I know the plugs are correct because I wouldn’t have been able to screw them all the way in. Any thoughts will help.

    Sheesh! "Remove cover.....remove throttle body.....remove intake manifold....drain coolant.....remove crankshaft and pistons......remove left door.....remove dash and instrument cluster......remove headliner.....remove back glass.......remove fuel tank.......remove license plates and license lamp bulbs.....and finally, remove the passenger rear brake caliper and rotor."

    looking for another video. why not just say start taking off things until you can see the spark plug. It would be about as clear as what the video showed

    Ridiculous amount of work to just change spark plugs. Designed to discourage the home mechanic to do maintenance work on a work truck.
