    Great video keep up the good work, my 2009 Acura TSX 2.4 just hit 200,000 owned for 8 years I always used Mobil 1 Full Synthetic Oil, best cars ever I would rated 5 out 5. Have a bless day!

    For anyone who's still wondering I went through it and the first two bolts will be 10mm bolts, the spark plugs are more easily removed by using 16mm with Rachet till you can use your own hand with the extended torque and 16mm attached to unscrew then use the socket from the spark plug and use it to connect the loosened spark plug and pull it out.

    Hi,
    Would the process work on a UK model Honda Accord EXi 2.0 . ? Which are the equivalent of the US Acura Tsx's.

    Thanks for the video. I went ahead and changed mine at 50k. They looked a little scorched but nothing really bad but I had sort of a rough idle and I wasn't getting the fuel economy I thought I should be. Hope this does the trick.

    I'm coming up for the A14 service in a few, so anti seize on the threads is not recommended or is it based on if the old spark plug had some on the threads?

    • @HowtoAutomotive

      Edgardo Amado that's a tough one to answer. I seen these coils go out as early as 10,000 miles and I've seen them with 250,000 miles and still work just fine.

    is it advisable to use dielectric grease in the spark plug boot? or is there no need?

    • @HowtoAutomotive
      @HowtoAutomotive  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      tubedude92 It is a good idea to use it. A lot of the boots or wires come with it already in there. You don’t wanna use too much though.
