I finally got around to doing this job. About 90 minutes, but I was moving slow. and looking for tools. Thanks very much. I appreciate videos like yours to help me save lots of money and know the job is done properly.

Good explanation of the process!! Having grown up working on 1950's and 1960's cars that were simple, I rarely do repairs on today's complex cars. But this looks simple enough. Thanks for the guidance.

Thank you. Wife had bank 1 go bad. With over 100k miles, I did all four in 20 minutes at a cost of $150. I can only imagine what the dealer would have charged for this super easy repair.

[cwanat]

Thanks. Simple, to the point and easy to understand.

Nice job Good video I've been a mechanic and been working on cars for over 55 years so take that as a compliment lol

Very well presented. Good video, good speaking. The air intake to the throttle body, and the air discharge from the air filter element should have been covered prior to using compressed air in the area.

Can you do a video on cleaning or replacing fuel injectors on a 2016 terrain

[VicARRazorback]

Question? Do you need to chage the plug and ignition coil both or can you just change the plug? 2013 Captiva with 160, 000 miles neither have been changed.

[kimosabi]

By changing out the plugs and coils, will that help reduce the idle sputtering of the car?

[jordanc.]

Is it worth replacing the ignition coils when changing the spark plugs, or is it only necessary if they go?

HAVE A 2011 CHEVY EQUINOX LT 2.4L I HAVE A P135A CODE I JUST CHANGED MY SPARKPLUGS AND IGNITION COILS AND ALTERNATOR AND MY CAR WONT START DO YOU KNOW WHATS WRONG WITH IT?

[Ravenwest]

What’s the gap measurement for the spark plugs?

[josephlamar]

Don't you have to first have to take the negative off the battery first?

[TheRealJonsMind]

Would these coils through a P0300 code?

[williefreeman]

By looking at the ignition coil how can u tell if it's bad are not

Ratchet to remove only. Do not use anti-sieze either. That's per the manufacturer of the plugs. Otherwise, good video.
