HELPFUL TIPS FOR CHANGING SPARK PLUGS

[01TrueBlueCobra]

I plan on changing the sparkplugs on my 01Cobra. This is my first time changing plugs on a wireless/distributorless Car. Is there any difference. Also any helpful tips.

Change them out when the engine is completely cold! Don't overtighten the new plugs either. Those are the big ones...

Its pretty simple. just remove the cover in the middle of the valve cover (3 or 4 bolts, not sure) unplug the coil overs and pull them out, to gain access to the plugs. the drivers side is the same, but u have to remove the air intake tube. good luck

These are some of the easiest engines to change the plugs on since they are right there on top of the head...just take the cover off, pull the COP out of the hole and off the spark plug, remove the old plug, use some anti-sieze on the threads of the new one, and don't cross thread or over torque them when putting them back in...The torque spec on them is 7-14 ft-lbs....The aluminum heads are very touchy to cross threading and you can' really screw them up if that happens...

After you get the covers off and coils out, be sure to blow any dirt out of the wells before removing the plugs. You don't want any grit to fall in the cylinders. These are really easy engines to change plugs on.
