Nice. But some notes. I didn't have to take any of the stuff off to get the coils out. They have enough play to get a wiggle going, and go sideways, and under the stuff you removed. The more it comes out, the bigger angle you get.
I also think that spark plug grabber socket makes more problems than necessary. I use the magnet to pull everything out and put the plugs in. Even give the plug a turn with the magnet before dropping a socket on it. Great vid though. Great contribution. Thanks. |

TIP: I always tape the spark plug socket to the extension when doing spark plug.
