ChrisFix Thanks for asking for that discount for your viewers and subscribers Chris. Christmas in June with that gift.
Could've used this like 2 days ago for a fuel line compression fitting, rip.
ChrisFix okay, so what was that other gapping tool used for? Never seen one before, the one that looked like it had threads for a spark plug
When I saw the New video in my notifications I got soo Happy your now my favorite youtuber, you have drawn me from games now Im looking out for the perfect car with your checklist and my preference, THANK YOU
Well shoot. I just picked a case of each genuin honda atf, ps, and brake fluid a week ago. Would of saved a good penny..
Too bad service manuals nowadays instead of giving u information, they say, 'go to your nearest authorized dealer' as the answer to all the issues
I have a MK6 GTI and it doesn't even have a fuse diagram. It just says "At the time of print, there was no fuse information available."
@@SwingAxleLover lol, i have a Mk7, and thats what i referred to 😂, except instead of not available, its 'see your nearest VW authorized dealer'
I have a little ae92 rolla and my manual tells me how to take the entire engine and car apart.
I think that's why people less use the OEM service manuals and more use the Haynes service manuals, which I believe are made by literally entirely disassembling a car, then telling you the steps of putting it back together.
Idk, I don't work for Haynes
Its even worse when they dont make your engine anymore. Old car problems are annoying but we love them anyway. my 88 gxl isnt to happy but she purrs still
I watched 3 videos and now im a full time mechanic
Awesome

Straight up Chris fix is the man.
“It’s a fairly simple job”
Subaru owners: cries in flat four
I came here for doing that on my M2 Competition later on where you have to take off half of the engine bay before getting access to the plugs. All the information help in building confidence.
@@AkiDarkWolf Same here on my tuned Audi S6. The problem isn't the spark plug job, it's removing 50 other things to get to them. Thankfully someone put together a tutorial on a message board.
Subaru owner here too . The spark plugs on the side really piss me off
Watch the end of the video ;)
Ford Fiesta ST owner: cries in stripped threads
Who else knows how to do all this stuff but still watches the chrisfix video on it just cuz it's interesting?
Not me
*IMPORTANT!: IF YOUR SPARK PLUG BROKE INSIDE OF YOUR ENGINE, READ THIS!*
So, the other day I changed my spark plugs, and as I went to remove one, it broke, leaving the metal threads in the head of my engine, while the ceramic portion came out. So, if this happens, try this first before you have a mechanic take the head off to remove the hollow shell of the theads.
1. Get a #5 size "easy-out" screw extractor bit. These are used for removing screws with stripped heads.
2. Attach your 10 inch extension to your 3/8in ratchet.
3. Get a 7/16in size, 3/8in drive, star socket, and turn it *backwards* so the star portion is on the end of the extension. It should fit, but wont be snug.
4. Insert the square end of the screw extractor bit into the square hole in the 7/16in star socket.
5. VERY slowly, screw the extractor counter-clockwise (to the left) into the inside of the shell of the spark plug.
As the screw extractor bites into the inside of the broken spark plug, it will slowly unscrew it as well, saving you potentially hundreds or thousands of dollars by not having to take it to a mechanic. I had to do this on my 2011 INFINITI G37x and it came out fine. Just MAKE SURE you unscrew it VERY slowly and you wont have a problem. Use a long skinny magnet to remove it from the inside of the engine.
*Please upvote this as it could help people in a bad situation save some money!*
Thanks a lot for the tip Jack!!!
5.4 Triton in the f150 had this problem alot I hear. Can cost guys 3-4000
Im guessing that’s why ChrisFix recommend the anti-seize? To proactively reduce the odds of that helping?
ChrisFix - If the ceramic insulator came out whole you have an opening above the cylinder. EZ-outs can create small metal shavings and you risk them falling in. In wouldn’t recommend this in a hard to reach plug where you can’t watch for this.
Aarrgh, And I got trapped in this same scenario, friend's 2008 Ford Focus was handed off to him by his dad, was going to replace all 4 sparkplugs until the 1st one broke off, Not only that but had oil in the wells too. Time to fetch for a screw extractor
*Car blows up*
“Hey Guys Chrisfix here”
It's 12am and this comment made me laugh so hard. Thank you
Thats amazing 😂😂
"and all you need to fix this blown out car is some common household tools like a screwdriver and a wrench"
@@moepShinChan Neh...All you need is soapy wooder.
@@fqn3 and a new engine 😂😂
The amount of thought and work Chris puts in these videos is evident. These are the clearest, the best edited diy videos on TH-cam.
Auto Zone sold me more expensive plugs (iridium) last year and my car has only run worse. Went to Rock Auto and bought the OE Manufacturer plugs (copper and 80% cheaper. $2 vs $10) and now my car runs so much better than those more expensive ones. I'd much rather swap my plugs out every 30k miles than the car run like crap for 60k+ miles. I always come back here for a refresher course on how to swap them out. Thanks again Chris.
I can’t even lie, this video alone saved me a trip to a mechanic. Was afraid my engine was spewing coolant around, causing some bad misfires. Checked spark plugs and oil reservoir. Clean oil. BAD spark plugs. Thanks a lot man!
I'm glad you got the problem fixed! Thanks a lot!
@@chrisfix are these series going to continue?
@@penislong6969 what series?
@@chrisfix building the mustang and replacing generally parts on it
Was your car kinda surging while driving? I’m not getting any codes. Just wondering if it might be some bad spark plugs as well.
The main goal with all my videos is to teach you as much as possible in a clear, concise, and entertaining way with all the best and accurate information! I truly think 99% of you will learn or see something new in this video so I hope you enjoy it! This is the only video you will have to watch on how to replace spark plugs! Also if you change your plugs after watching this video, tag me on Instagram and I will share your posts!
ChrisFix what would make a car shift hard
Hey ChrisFix! I was wondering if you could make a Super Clean video for the interior like you did for the exterior. Maybe like some products you use or something?
ChrisFix can you please do a video on glow plugs
Hey there Chris I love your videos man. Thank you for this video because my car didn't start and I check the spark plug and it didn't spark it ended being a spark plug not an wire when I came to yt to check how to replace this I just saw your channel created this video and I just came over here thank you man :)
You should do one for a boxer engine 🤗
I really admire this guy. And not because of all his knowledge about cars, but because he also edit his videos like a master... I just picture the amount of time that he must spend making them.... They are clear and to the point. Some of the most understandable videos in here...
3 years later and i used this video to fix my misfire!! Awesome job Chris, you inspired me to try something new
I think I speak for alot of people, we all appreciate your charismatic attitude, and professionalism, unlike another mechanic TH-camr who just has to call you out :/
You've never come off as someone who is trying to 1 up anyone, just an honest guy trying to help people like me who are paranoid about working on their car 😂
Keep up with the fun and informative videos!
Thanks a lot! My goal is to help everyone learn as much as possible and hopefully that allows them to fix their car.
ChrisFix you do motivate us with your awesome videos keep up the great work...
Great man....may Allah bless you Chris
REVV UP YOUR TH-cam DRAMA

To me. Chris is my most respected automotive youtuber...he just does his own thing and doesnt have to go after everyone who pokes fun at him...*Cough* ...rev up you engines...
Thanks! I hope you are learning a lot!
Except he does his own thing and makes sure he has to include his sponsors...
Funny, out of all of the Chrisfix videos, he called him out on headlight restoration and rust...smh
Somewhere. An old dog is barking because the new younger alpha is better
Where have you been? I thought you uploaded weekly?
I've seen many, many different videos on changing plugs over the years, but this one is by far the best. Touches on all the pertinent information, including referring to the owners manual (keeping it real) and safety (DO NOT do this on a hot engine). This is great practical information for the beginner and the expert alike!
I replaced my wires and upgraded my platinum plugs to iridium plugs on my 2001 Camry with the help of this video. I fixed a misfire problem I had and now my engine feels like she has power now. Thank you !
So much effort in this video. You showed so many different cars and engine types. Great work man!
Thanks a lot
Right, like the dealer cares as much about your car as you do. You're on opposite sides of the dollar.
yeah.

Awesome man!
Good! This is much better than surprise egg vids
Hey man that’s awesome
Me too
Cool little bro am 11 and watch him
Once again you answered ALL my questions before I attempt this first time fix on my Ranger. You are my go to Professor for all car related DYI stuff on TH-cam University. Not only the how to to, but great close ups, camera angle, lighting ect. Right to point no wasted time, all the info need to Get R Done.
Thanks Chris for all your work put out these videos!!!

I spent quite a few years as a Technical Service Representative (TSR) for Autolite Spark Plugs. After seeing this video I must say that ChrisFix did a great job of explaining the "Art of Plugs" Well done!!
I've been learning a lot with you Chris. I've started working on my car since I watched you first back 5 years or something. Since then I do repairs myself. Thank a lot!

I have a mechanic change the spark plug and he told me i should wait a bit before i see the new spark plug result, is this right?
@@fiyinaregbe2740 no it doesnt sound right, spark plugs usually work right away
I was hoping he would use Medium Strength Thread Locker on the plug threads.
@@fiyinaregbe2740 probably a scam so he can stick some new ones every 6 months or so

Thank you so much! I started working on my own car after your brake tutorial and I was also to follow this one and I changed both my brakes ,wires, and spark plugs for less than a third than I was being charged for my old honda accord. I appreciate, keep doing what you're doing
The details you explain are so informative . I can hardly express my appreciation. Most people wouldn't bother and most manufactures just say every plug they sell is the best.
As the saying goes, 'the devil is in the details'.
When you say to do something or not, you explain WHY. To me, that means a LOT !
Id love to watch you install a supercharger or a turbo
Stay tuned!
Good pun

ChrisFix yess!!

Holy shit man, Chris is is such a bro. Not only a guide on replacing spark plugs, but several different engine layouts and what to do if you don't have a torque wrench and several different methods for testing plug gaps. These videos are always worth so much more than people could ask for.
Thanks man! Glad you’re learning a lot
You have become one of my favorite youtubers because of your videos. I haven't seen many, only ones that are relevant at the time I need them, but you have been so incredibly helpful. Teach REAL helpful information and not the dumb stuff schools think are relevant. Knowing how to manage finances, knowing how to maintain your vehicle and work on it, and how to cook and clean among other daily life necessities should be mandatory. Things that I thought would be difficult to do on my car are surprisingly easy. You don't just show us how to do things but you are so thorough in teaching how, why, and when. You explain what everything does when it's relevant to the video, in this case the plugs and wires, what they do, how they are made aka the anatomy of the pieces, how to use certain tools for the job, when this should be done, how to find the information that's relevant to our specific vehicle, different options, in parts, etc. Thank you!
The most comprehensive auto repair videos on the web, hands down! Thank you, Chris.
Chris... I too, have been working on cars, not professionally, for over 50 years. I prefer your channel as you show how most car repairs can be done at home with a minimum of tools. That in itself makes your channel great. I'm sticking with you. BTW, your subscribers show a lot of class by not getting into a pissing match with that other group. Keep up the great job. As always, thanks for taking the time to teach others.
Thanks a lot Joe for all the support! Means more than you know!
A huge majority of his subs are very mature and couldn’t care less about what other people say or do. It’s actually really awesome reading through the comments on his videos. A good comment section is very rare on TH-cam.
Well said!
I'm driving a diesel but I watch the video. That's how nice your content is! :D
Thanks!
A video on how to change a glow plug then?

Oh du bist hier, cool :)

Thank you so much for showing the different style engines! Mine, of course is the last one but you took away the intimidation factor I found in other videos where they removed the engine cover. The wiper cowl is so much easier!
Did my spark plugs for the first time today for $45 in under an hour. Mechanic wanted 3 hours of labor, plus a markup on parts! Appreciate all of your videos, wouldn't have tried without watching!
Goodness this is the kind of quality information you would have to pay thousands of dollars at a trades college to get! Keep up the amazing work Chris, you've done so much to help and inspire so many people to work on their cars!
Thanks! That is the goal! Trying to provide as much information as possible in one video while keeping it concise and fun to watch.
My grandpa taught me when I was a youngern. He raised me after my dad bolted as a kid.
I know right!! We tend to take Chris and others videos for granted, I know my wallet likes it
There is always something new to learn in your videos men. Great work and dont listen to the other haters. Old grumpy people are just grumpy
Thanks Oscar!
Hi Chris,

Hey chris my moms car was having a misfire and i remember watching this video when it came out. so 2 went to Walmart and got a cheap obd2 reader, cylinder 2 was misfiring- got a new spark plug and changed it out myself. spent around $30 for everything i needed while my mom was charged $150 just in labor to change them! Thanks chris for teaching me everything i know! :D
Dude.. premium content, nobody does it better
Thanks a lot Justin!
Please make a video about cleaning inside a car, especially car seats. That will be very nice.

Just wanted to say I've been watching ur videos because I'm buying an old Ford ranger and needed help. Been watching u for 2 days now and have fell in love with how u show how to do stuff. I went all the way back to ur first few videos and u sound sooooo happy now. Keep up the great work
Today I finally decided to replace my spark plugs on my Kia Spectra 2007, and I would never had done it myself without this video!
I definitely almost screwed up 'cause I didn't attach the spark plug to the socket correctly, so the plug fell off inside the well :( luckily the plug was fine.
Also my ratchet wasn't grabbing the spark plug socket after installing the new plug, so I had to tape the extension bar to the socket lol.
I'm so grateful, you are amazing Chris. This is my second DYI thanks to you, sending some love from El Salvador.
Dude. Your videos are pure brilliance. Ive been a home mechanic since a teen and i still learn from you. There is nothing quite as pleasing as working on your own car and saving a ton of money in the process. Keep it up Chris, truly a great job.
Can you do a video about painting a hole car, maybe on the del Sol.

My 2010 Mustang was sputtering severely just about anytime I pressed on the accelerator. I tried changing the fuel filter which didn’t help. Then stress ensues as I feared tackling this job. But I did it and it was a success! My Mustang runs better now than ever before, and with ZERO sputtering! Whooo! THANK YOU CHRIS!!!
Thanks Chris for your knowledge & advice. You're very clear with your comments & you do a great job keeping your points concise & as brief as possible. Love your work Mate... thanx again!!!
This is how much I love your videos I know how to replace spark plugs from any engine and I'm still waching
Thanks Joshua!
The way you explain these how to fixes are so simple and easy to follow along. I have a learning disability but I can have a good grasp at mechanics. Unfortunately the people I've tried to learn from do not have the patience to be as thorough yet simple as you are. I really like this content and I'll be sure to subscribe and link your videos to friends I have that may need the guidence you provide. Thank you, this made everything very easy to learn and gave me confidence that I might be able to do these projects on my own without going to a commercially over priced shop.
I had never worked on cars before but this gave me the confidence to change the plugs on my '14 WRX. Definitely not the easiest but this video helped a ton!
I was never a car guy, but you have gotten me interested in it and when a problem arises from car, I actually get excited. Thanks man!
That’s awesome! Glad you’re learning a lot!
Im a car mechanic replacing plugs on daily bases yet i watch this😂
thanks for being my hero 4 years later i just got an 88 monte carlo and your videos are helping give me the confidence to work on it myself instead of spending thousands at a shop :)
Well explained and thorough videos...also this might be the first videos ever on YT that doesn't have any thumbs down/dislike that by itself tells you how good a channel is that there are no haters...thank you for your time and service!
I think you are number 1 in Car guide on youtube. You explain better than anyone
Thanks a lot!
I was wondering if you were going to mention more "troublesome" engines. I was not disappointed.
You know it!
Terrific video! I've replaced many plugs but that was back in the days before on-plug ignition coils. My task was a 2009 Lexus RX 350. Front coils/plugs were a breeze. The rear not so much. This is a common problem with that engine. But that's a whole different story. Thanks again for the thorough video!
He makes working on cars sound fun! And it really is when he helps you understand how things work
Thumbs up for having the foresight to demonstrate on less common / more difficult engines to change plugs on - particularly the Subaru H4.
I figured it would be good to show people not every engine is easy but there are some tricks to make it easier!
Thank you SO much for including a Subaru and showing us how to get to the side-mounted plugs!
No problem!!!
This makes me happy, I wasn't expecting that.
Chris: I’ve been working on cars for 50 years. Love all your videos. Thanks for including Subaru. I’m on #6 a 2017 Legacy. On my 2008 outback, I used a 3 inch extension, coupled with a 1 inch extension in order to remove the plugs. Keep up the good work! Where’d you get your adjustable ratchet wrench, I want one?
Brz :(
How to gap your spark plug:
1. Put it in the ground next to your car
2. When the light turns green, launch the car
Whut

Lol , bro thats a different gapping 🤣
Wanted to say thank you for making vids like this one as it helped me to change out my spark plugs and ignition coils on my Camaro. Took me a little longer than I'd thought when I planned everything out beforehand but got a great sense of accomplishment from being able to do the work myself. Thank you again for all the work you do in putting together these helpful & informative videos.
Yo Chrisfix! Your vídeos are perfect bro. Lately other channels have started throwing dirt at you to get more views. Some small channels have also been trying to catch some fame by joining the badwagon. I really hope you stay above them and dont waste time respondimg or trying to get even. Let your views and subs do the work for you. Your Channel is the largest automotive youtube channel and thats something omly you can claim. Keep up the great work, and stay pushing through.

I bought a car a week ago, 75k miles on it. The owner took care of it, but not that much, so I decided to get into it. I have built FPV Drones, I fix computes and cellphones, so I felt confident. I changed my filters, put some new LED bulbs for the headlights, and the big! I changed the Sparkplugs today, took me around an hour, but I did it. Thank you so much!
I just replaced my sparkplugs for the first time ever and this video helped so much. It felt amazing that I took care of my own car and did my own maintenance. Thanks Chrisfix!
Chris really did his homework and i liked it :)
You know it!
changed my plugs a week ago, could have used the tips!
Now you know!
Which tips? Did it still went well?
I bought a 96 tacoma with a V6 engine because it was really cute but it needs SO MUCH MAINTENANCE and i figure its time to learn how to do these things as a 26 year old woman - so thank you for helping me keep up with my lovely old lady truck this video really is super helpful and you do a great job explaining things!
Said it before. These are the best videos on YT dealing with automotive. Great script, video, sound, attitude, etc. THANKS
Thank you Chris for inspiring me. I now have a job as a mechanic and could not be happier
That is awesome man! Keep working hard!

“This is the perfect job for beginners” *cries in 5.4L triton*
I heard this was a thing should I not even bother with my f150 then. I've never done much work with vehicles should I take it to a professional?
@@robertbridgman1451 they are notoriuos for breaking, especially if u waited the 140k miles that ford recommends. Ford will also have you sign a waover that if they break a plug, you pay labor to gave them fix at about $1k. Do thwm much sooner, use plenty of penetrant first, let it soak good, take you time, dont crank it out or it will break. When replacing use anti seaze for mext time.

You know you’re doing good as a TH-camr when your sponsor is actually very relevant to your content, and helps to support/enrich the video.
Amazing video after so many years, Chris content quality and super detailed explanations are not only desired but almost mandatory to then go on and do it. I'll be doing my first spark plugs and cable job next days... Wish me luck!
just searched how to replace spark plug and found your video. Thanks, you answered all the questions I had and some I didn't had before. Best how to video on subject. Immediately subscribed to your channel.
I run NGK Iridium plugs in my car and it has helped with fuel economy on my car. But I do replace them roughly every 40k miles. I use to run E85 in my car when I lived in Florida and it wears out spark plugs a lot quicker.
James Briggs E85 burns colder so I could see it building a lot more heat in the plugs lol. Maybe platinum would be best?
E85 is harter to ignite, thats why
N54?🙃
Chris you the mahn...I always used to be scared while working on my car. But after I see your videos, they gimmi a boost to work on my car. I drive a Honda Accord V6 and I've worked alot on the vehicle. All thanks to you. Till now I've done replacing the head gasket, did some brake jobs, and many more things.. Thanks mahn.. Much love all the way from India🤙🏻🤙🏻

I just changed my spark plugs. Did take a while because I had to take out so many components to get to it but it was really easy. Only concern was trying not to cross thread when installing the new plugs. Thank you Chris! Next up is my breaks :)
Changed my spark plugs for the first time today, and i plan on changing my transmission fluid and filter and oil soon all thanks to this channel! Thank you!! :)
You don't give us just "Hot to replace" you give us so much more information about that (in this case spark plugs) whats good , whats bad, what should we do, what not to do. Other videos show us just how to replace and that's it. You show and give the best of you. That is why I like and enjoy wacthing your videos. Thank you @ChrisFix
In school I always hated when the teacher said here is the stuff you need to memorize. I found it so much easier if I understood “why” or “how”... that way it all makes sense. Like just saying add salt to the recipe doesn’t help. Why... add salt to bring out the flavor in the soup. Now it makes sense!
It's like Christmas whenever ChrisFix uploads
One of the first things I ever learned how to fix on a car was replacing the spark plugs. It's generally not a very hard job for a beginner, and yet it's still complicated enough to make someone trying to learn how to fix their cars feel like they really accomplished and learned something...
This vid inspired me to change the out the original plugs on my 42K mile 2004 Elantra GT (despite an unfortunate past first experience with aluminum heads that ended in a helicoil on an '86 Escort). I couldn't believe the difference - engine idles and runs so much smoother and dead spot at 38 MPH when accelerating is gone - old plugs had good color but a bit of firing tip erosion that resulted gaps of 0.046 - 0.049 (spec is 0.043 max). Can't wait to for my next fill up to see what my gas mileage is. Thanks so much.
At least I can say I know about something in cars after watching these guides
That’s the goal! Complete, accurate, helpful info!!!
Weird how your videos are more helpful and informative than that mechanic with 50 years experience.
It's not all about experience, it is also about passion.
And the things Chris has a passion about is what makes his channel so great. Yeah you can have the information, but without the presentation, no one is going to care. Chris has a passion for both mechanic work and videography. And that is why so many people love his channel. Keep it up, Chris.
camdog How?? Please explain how Chris is more helpful? All Chris is doing is up selling you so he makes money on the back end...just like his 3M sponsorship
@68CamaroRS/SS Please tell us how he is not helpful?
Look, I never mind someone's hustle to make a living in this world. I just mind how much I've being screwed over for someone else's dime. I don't feel screwed over by a video on the internet.
Thanks Chris, I'm slowly falling in love with mechanics and I want to get my first project car soon! :)
Just changed my plugs for the fist time ever. The knowledge in your vids was essential. Thank you!
