My added tip is to replace each spark plug one at time. It sheets helped me. Prevents everything you mentioned about debris. And keeps the original coil pack per plug. And this video is amazing for detail.
The gift of knowledge. So inexpensive to give, relative to how valuable it is to so many that need it. And this is just what I needed. But it's not FREE to give. So thanks greatly for your knowledge, and the effort and time you took to make this video for those of us that needed it. You are good people.
Glad it was helpful! and you are very welcome! I appreciate your support of my channel!
Subscribed! One thing that would be amazing is if at the start of the videos you do a quick screen showing tools and materials needed.
Much love from west palm beach Florida wya my brother. I own 2012 accent so all your bids are nice to help I've done my sparks before so this is a nice refresh
That's awesome! glad my videos help! stay tuned for more!
Technical and practical with great tips! Thanks Squared
Very helpful! My wife's car has started running rougher and having the occasional misfire, so I was debating about going straight to the shop, or doing the spark plugs first.... This looks way easier than my previous cars, so I'll definitely start here and hope it prevents a trip to the shop!
Lol, and if I screw up, it needs to go to the shop anyways lol
I'm changing my spark plugs this weekend. Great video. I'm just doing one at a time tho. I don't like leaving holes to my engine open. Other then that this video I enjoyed thanks
10mm socket for coils.5/8 Socket for spark plugs .good parts and a Cold beer
Couldn't have said it better myself
awesome video ! liked and subscribed ! one thing i recommend is putting the tool and socket size requirement because i have a short memory span haha
Thanks for the sub!
Dude your videos are 🔥💪
haha much appreciated!
Good video sir; how did you adjust gap once you measured the plugs?
Great video, Thank you so much, this was so helpful.
You are so welcome!
Thank you for the video! Replaced my wife's spark plugs today. When removing the ignition coil connectors, the grey tab snapped off on two of them -- I was able to place the connectors back on but do you know if it's possible to replace the connectors? Thanks again!
Thank you.
I am screwed if the power goes out, gotta write this knowledge down . Thanks again :)
Haha you got this!
I enjoyed the video.
I’ve read scuffing the iridium isn’t recommended. Any info on that?
good video, thanks
Very good video. Ty!
Thank you for the information. My sister will appreciate me replacing her spark plugs for free🙂
Thank you for knowing how to replace
Your welcome!!
Thank you, I always support.
Is this the same for a 1.6L 2017 accent?
Good job thxs...
Thank you!
thankx
Those gray pieces either broke or popped out completely. What do i do?
My wife 2015 Accent that pesky gray tab you carefully pulled up yeah one of hers has Brocken and is miss firing
Do you happen to know how to replace the connector wire to the coil pack
I don't think thwarts are its own part unfortunately.... what I would do is find a Accent from a junkyard and cut the cable off that and then solder splice that into yours.
They say modern plugs come pre-coated and that you don't need to apply anything on the threads.
when i replaced my spark plugs i didnt diconnect the coils, the wires are long enouth to just move them out of the way.
Do they also need do apply dielectric grease ?
That can be used inside the boot before it is put back on plug.
What's the best way to knock the spark plugs down to the correct gap?
Using gap tool and small hammer
Help me change rear brake shoes on rear of Hyundai Accent 2017 model
I got you bro the 2017 is the same as 2014 Drums... th-cam.com/video/gvhxgPizY0Y/w-d-xo.html
@everythingavron how do you disconnect the pump
not sure what pump you are referring to?
Would this all work for a 2012 Hyundai Accent?
Yup should be the same... but you can always check your owners manual to verify the Sparkplug spec/size required
Roughly how long did this take you? I gotta do the plugs in my accent.
All vehicles are different in difficulty. But for Accent I can knock it out in about 30 mins taking my time.
This normal fuel consumption how much
i know i am off subject but i am trying to replace my 02 sensor bank one,, without the tool. I have the car jacked up and trying to un-tighten and not having much luck any advice. I have changed the spark plugs with the help of the video
for O2s they have always been super difficult for me too... I'd recommend some PB Blaster soaked on the threads over night. then the tightest and strongest wrench or vise grips you own. and then a leverage bar if possible... But truly the easiest way would be getting the special O2 socket, because you can grip it well then use a breaker bar if necessary.
Are you sure on the 8 ft-lbs of torque for the plugs? I’ve read many specs that say anywhere from 18-21 ft-lbs.
Yes im confident on the 8ft-lbs. there may be some higher torques out there too. But this head doesn't have a lot of engaging threads.
It says on your spark plug box what ft pound it is so I assume he was using tappered spark plugs
8ftlbs are the coil pack bolts
Plug should have anywhere from .035-.040 gap. Torque on plug should be 14lbs ft. Torque on ignition coils should be 9lbs ft. Rub dielectric grease on the ceramic part of the plug only and inside the coil with a Qtip. I used Duralast coils and NGK plugs. Don't use threadlock. Do this while engine is completely cool because torque can change with heat.
How do you unplug the vent tube ?
just take some pliers and pull back the clamp then just wiggle the tube off the lil post.
Do you think thats what's causing idling and the check engine light to flash on my dash?
Not sure but if you have the Check engine light on, I would definitely go get that code scanned and see what it points to, it would be any of several reasons. but after you find out what code your car is throwing you can then pursue that issue. then see if that fixes it.
yes just fixed my today change spark plug
What happens if the grey clip breaks? Asking for a friend 😮
If you get them pre gapped you can just pop em in there instead of the tape
Thank you!
you're welcome!
You did good, so what,s next? You are off to a good start, turn up the burner, take it easy, man this stuff will get into your bones...........See Ya
Will this work on 2011 Hyundai Accent?
2011 Accents is a different generation than mine, I could be certain if its the exact same. Id recommend checking your owners manual or with your local Auto store for the correct Sparkplug type. However, The process will be very similar I know.
@@EverythingAvron I appreciate the quick reply!
dont use auto light use the oem plugs take it from a hyundai tech
yea I normally do go OEM but I honestly went cheap this round
When do i have to replace it?
I say "it depends on the vehicle," for example on the Hyundai accent Im comfortable going 50,000 to 70,000 miles under normal driving. Now for my F150 Ecoboost I change those out every 15,000 to 20,000 miles. Different vehicles degrade spark plugs at different rates.
What's the significance of the gap?
Well on low compression N/A cars there probably won't be much issues if the gaps are slightly off. but it just is best to follow the manufactures recommended spacing. on high compression and Forced induction vehicles, gap becomes a lot more crucial. because your intake air could actually "blow out" your spark if the gap is too wide, or conversely if there's too small of a gap, the spark won't be sufficient enough to ignite the air/fuel mixture.
Thanks for the video! Just a couple questions if you wouldn’t mind. How much anti seize did you apply on threads and how tight do you screw them in? Would the gap be affected if twisted too tightly? Thanks in advance if you see this
Dont use anti-seize on spark plugs, just torque to 18 ft/lbs and you'll be fine
Ive always used it on the sparkys... specifically the copper anti seize which won't effect conductivity, and will prevent heat caused seizing.
@@EverythingAvron They actually come with a layer of dry anti seize already coating the threads. I think the manufacturer did that because, unlike you, people were using types of anti seize that did effect conductivity. I think you are just adding another level of protection. Not a bad thing given how bad it is to have a seized spark plug!
NGK says 10-14 ft lbs.
That engine sounds like a thrashing machine.
What would be cool is. I drive down to you and we make a weekend of it. LOL. knowing my luck i will crack one in the cylinder
Hahaha you got this! Use a universal joint before your socket and you’ll be fine!
Auto light plugs are not for Asian vehicles. They use denso
true, but for this low output 1.4L they won't cause any issues
Most likely NGK. Denso is excellent too.
Hyu
I can't take a video seriously where the engine is this dirty... a clean engine runs cooler and more efficiently. It also makes for a more "Professional" Video. FYI
I agree which is why I'll be eventually taking it to get professionally detailed like I did the Truck for the Car show.
I stopped cleaning the engine. Those engine cleaners are destroying soft parts like electric insulation and other plastic and rubber parts. Flushing and replacing coolant every two years keeps the engine cool. Replacing the thermostat, radiator cap, and hoses every 60000 miles (100000 km) and replacing the serpentine belt (sooner) keeps the engine running cool forever and prevents damage to the head gasket. New and clean engine oil also keeps the engine cool.
Simple Green is best not harsh on rubber. @@MrCROBosanceros
This has to be one of the worst explanation videos I’ve watched thus far!
Man give that engine a good wash
