Sorry but im a noob to all this so i was wondering if there was anything that had to be done before i remove spark plug cover. What tool should i use and what are the torque specs for putting it back on?

 

Torque specs on the spark plug cover are unneccessary(sp?).... But it is a T30 torx bit to unscrew them, just screw them back on tight! that is it!

 

and don't over-tighten it, you can crack it. Just make it hand tight.

 

And that goes without saying! AGREED

 

Well, when someone asks for a torque spec on a cover, I have to mention it. Also, my car has some small cracks from the very first time it got dynoed and the cover got put back on with a ratchet too tight. Get a T30 nut driver, that way you can't really twist it too hard and overtighten.

 

Wow.... damn people and there OVER tightening! It's aluminum, everything on this damn car is aluminum.... NO SUPA' TIGHTY!

 

if you have to ask that question, seriously dont work on your car. im not trying to be a dick but if you have that little knowledge youre better off not touching it. you should try and practice on something else. but i guesss not everyone has that luxury. at least buy a haynes/chilton or some brand repair manual for your car, and follow the directions in there, it will help you with basics.

 

I have alot of knowlage about cars, ive done spark plugs on several cars just not this one. Just want to pick up the right tools to do it and i want to make sure i dont break anything.
