@BillOfAllTrades2016 Already Liked it. Just hit the Sub. I just completed a similar video, but it's not what I normally do on my channel. I'll mention in the description that I watched your video and will provide a link to your channel.

Thanks that’s awesome.

Nice. Glad you like them. Hope you subscribed as well to be notified when I post new ones. Thanks for watching. Most maintenance on these vehicles is easier than we think.

You’re welcome. One step at a time. Please like and subscribe to my channel. I have many equinox videos. Many more to come.

You can indeed do that. However I never have because when you remove the plugs and reinstall them, you aren’t actually disturbing any of the dust. But it’s good that you are cautious. Thanks for watching. Please like and subscribe

I do the same but with the new design with the coil mounting directly to the plugs, it looks like the coil provides a seal to prevent anything dropping in. Good Luck

Thanks for watching. I have around 90 equinox videos and more on my to do list. Some really good material coming soon. Please like and subscribe to keep updated.

Glad to hear it. Diy is such a money saver. Glad you enjoyed. Thanks for watching. Please like and subscribe

I actually have a video on that as well. Please like and subscribe after watching Chevy Equinox 2.4L Throttle Body Cleaning. Thanks for watching kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pq1jp5WJ272YYps.html

You’re welcome. Glad to help with the savings. Didn’t know that’s what they are charging. Pretty steep. But that’s why diy is best. Thanks for watching. Please like and subscribe to stay up to date on all my maintenance videos.

You use a torque wrench. Thanks for watching. Please like and subscribe

@@BillOfAllTrades2016 Definitely have a like and subscribe from me, Thank you! Should I use 1/4 inch or 3/8? I'm trying to find the most commonly used size for engine work/ transmission fluid drain and level bolts.

When working on the vehicle you need a variety of sized ratchets. You should buy a kit that comes with 1/4”, 1 3/8” and 1/2” drive ratchets. And you want the kit to include both inches and mm. The transmission bolts are 7/16 socket size.

That is correct. Part number is scribed on the side of them. There is a grey tab on the plug. Pull out about 2mm or so. You may need a screw driver. Then pinch the top of the plug and pull out. Thanks for watching. Please like and subscribe

Some spark plugs come pre gapped…

Should aways confirm that they are gapped correctly. I have bought pregapped plugs that were way off. It is also a good idea to blow away any dust or debris before removing the spark plugs. I also use dielectric silicone and copper antiseaze on the sparkplug threads before installing.

Mike cook thanks for watching. You are correct about the gap confirmation and cleaning the area of dust. Ive never used dialectic grease on plugs but you can use just on the boot connection. As for any kind of anti seize, NEVER put anti seize on threads. You will have an inaccurate torque of the threads if you lubricate them. Lubricating the threads will make less friction and will result in more force to reach the same torque, leading to stripping the threads or snapping the plug. Also plugs are already coated from factory with either nickel or zinc chromate which already serves as anti seize. Please be careful what you advise on the internet. You may cause inexperienced people costly damages.

Yes that is ok. Brand does not matter. As long as they are properly gapped you can put whatever brand you like. I buy the pre gapped ones. Thanks for watching. Please like and subscribe

@@BillOfAllTrades2016 thanks

15 ft pounds… I did mention it in the video. Did you watch the whole thing? Lol. Thanks for watching. Hope it helped. Please like and subscribe

Ya. I know “those” caps are the coil packs. I like to keep it simple for viewers who are just starting out. You actually don’t need to even know the name of it. I named the important part that the video is based on… spark plugs, and whether you know what the coil pack is called or not you can still do the plug change successfully. Thanks for sharing your kind wisdom though.

@@BillOfAllTrades2016 I'm not trying to berate you or anything, but, that is the part that fires the plugs. People might want to know what part they just pulled off.

Thanks for your input.

Excellent. Thanks for watching. Greetings from Ontario. Please like and subscribe
