keep making videos man its cool seeing you learn as you go and still able to teach and show useful stuff without having a huge bass of knowledge - i have a 540 and been dreading redoing fuel hardlines and its nice to see the routing here through your diagnosing

I just wanted to say thankyou . After taking everything apart i didnt want to put it back together and heat up the engine..my ignition coil sits on top of each plug ..and getting to the plugs is removing clamps bolts and wires .you hammer trick worked great . Ty

I don’t know. I got a seized set of 8 out of an old vehicle that also the oil pan was so sludged oil wouldn’t even flow out of the drain plug. These were nearly exposed old school plugs on the block and rusted all around. Put a good 5 second spray of PENETRATING OIL such a WD or Liquid wrench down the plug chamber. Let it soak for an hour. If no success, spray again, let it soak for a day. Never had to fight plugs like this. Some of these videos you risk breaking the plug into the cylinder, stripping the threads on the cylinder. Basically causing more problems.

Thank you so much. My uncle told me to tap but I just wanted to verify it from someone else.

They seize bc of steel plugs in aluminum threads too.

Where can I get the torque wrench?

Thank you sir

Mine blinks short once and then long blink then short back and forth what does this mean?

Get ya some PB Blaster and fill the well of each spark plug on a cold engine. Let sit for a half hour then do it again. Start her up, let warm up for say 20-30 min. then shut her down and immediately squirt each plug thread body with PB, where it meets the engine. An expanded hot hole, then a cooled shrinking plug and pop, out she comes.

The socket is around the plug, it's not hitting the plug at all

nice

I like how every other vid I’ve watched on this say nothing about starting as soon as you turn the key. Got my codes immediately after you vid lol!! Thanks bro

Try tightening plug a bit before you try backing it out. If it’s still stuck after that, or after tapping, Add penetrating oil after you have broke the seal by tightening it. Let it set then try taking it out. May have to alternate in and out and work it out

Did you use OEM fuel lines?

Thanks man, Like&subscribe

GMC envoy stuck spark plug

One time I had a wheel nut on my 8ton truck that wouldnt come loose with a six foot cheater bar.The biggest air ratchet they had didnt work either. The shop recommended I get the nuts cut off by an engineering workshop and fit new studs and nuts. \ Using their tools.A 6 ft cheater bar and 12 in extension onto 30mm socket I got the guy to stand on the cheater at the 9 oclock position and I hit the end of the t bar with the biggest sledge they had in the tyre shop. Got all overtightened nuts off with no damage.Always check tyre fitters work. Wont leave you in the rain on the side off the road in the dark with a wheel you cant get off.

This would not work for me because I use deep well sockets and because they are deeper than the spark plug and it’s hex, hitting the socket, ratchet or extension won’t transfer that vibration to the spark plug, only the cylinder head around the plug. Furthermore, I’ll bet most of you are using a deep well, and this works, it’s a coincidence.

My KTM dirt bike manual specifies that tap tap procedure prior to attempting to remove oil drain plug.

Don't use a torque wrench. We've used a breaker bar before. You can also use a 1/4 or 3/8 inch battery-powered impact wrench set on a light setting.

Coil can only deal with so much stress... Id get the 30 dollar amazon smoke machine.

what torque do you set for removing?

Well designed video good job

Hahaha😂

Um.Water vape?🤨

Don't you have to open the throttle body aswell 😊

Great video

You should be seeing a code error if you have a leak.

Just had a plug stuck, soaked it for about a week and nothing. Tried this and it came right out!!! Thank you for the information man!!!!

Good Job!!

great video. i'm jealous of the garage. i have an e39 with m52b25 and i have similar problems (uneven idle, running bad when cold, shaking) and i cant find the issue. maybe i'ts time to open the engine. the worst thing is i already replaced 500$ worth of parts

I thought you were going to say you discovered your dad was selling drugs 😂

I have an air hammer attachment that does the same trick for glow plugs works great, thanks

Good trick, but maybe tap the hammer on the extension of the spark plug socket instead of the torque wrench? I'm always super careful with torque wrenches, they can go out of calibration with shocks.

I’m glad you found out about that.

Real good for the torque wrench dont do this

10/10

Marvel Mystery oil. Let that soak overnight. This stuff will unfreeze stuck pistons.

I usually use my other torque wrench instead of a hammer.

Experience is what you get when it didn't work out right the first time

It do be squirting

Those 10mms escape every chance they get

fence looked better then that shit clock.. lol you spent hella time and material to make something you will toss before the next video :P but hey least you can shell out another 60 to repair the now hole in the fence :P
