Nice job! Short and sweet presentation. Just the facts ma'am! I'm a retired mechanic of 45 years in the trades. I spent 35 with Mercedes Benz. Some guys like the sound of their own voice and think YouTube videos are acting auditions. They are not. You got right to the point and sped up the stuff that doesn't require explanation. I'd give you a 10 out of 10 just because I have to do this job on my own Dodge Grand Caravan and dread even touch cars after I retired. I'm inspired. Thanks for the great presentation.

Great video! A couple pointers(you probably know already). 1- When putting in a bolt or sparkplug, turn it backwards slowly until it clicks and seats into the threads properly. This is especially helful on plastic, wood and fine threads when cross threading is more likely. 2-When you are installing a bunch of fasteners, like you are in the intake runner, start all bolts and nuts then go back and tighten them. This makes it easier to get the last bolts lined up.

I can't thank you enough! This was such great detail, my daughter did the job herself. It's a shame car repair places will rape people's wallets. Probably saved her $1, 500+ by changing the $12-$16.sparkplug herself. Her van was shaking so bad, now running great. THANKS!

This was beautifully done. You are one of the few that I have seen that takes the sensible step of covering the intake ports. It just so happens that I know the dumb idiot that dropped a bolt down into a '99 Windstar port during a port seal replacement. I wished my father never met my mother that day! I finally got it out with a magnet but it was a chore. Anyway, it was a great video and I look forward to more.

Just bought my van at 109, 000 miles and it's missing that sound-deadening foam under the front of the intake; and that first plastic plug you pulled shows signs of having had pliers on it. So, without even removing anything to inspect the plugs I'm wondering if they've already been done. Engine runs fine, I was just doing it due to maintenance schedule.

Awesome job showing EVERYTHING. im used to working on older vehicles but after watching this i think im gonna change the plugs today. I got a horrible miss it makes the whole car vibrate.

Thank you so much for an excellent, detailed video. I remember when changing spark plugs was kind of simple and obvious. New engine designers must hate DIY owners.

My father's 2016 Grand Caravan just threw a misfire code on cylinder 2, and he has a 17 hour trip to do in a week... Such great timing. 😅 Although I'm no professional and I don't know if the spark plug could be the reason for the misfire, I would've loved to try this with him but he doesn't want to haha. Now the engine vibrates quite rough at 1-2k RPM.

Excellent video. My daughters' 2019 Grand Caravan is experiencing heavy jerking. Advance Auto OBD reader says cylinder 3 misfire. EDIT: From the back firewall left to right cylinders 1 3 5 and towards the front of the vehicle left to right cylinders 2 4 6

Dude, great video! Perfect for those of us who know how to do stuff but aren't under the hood everyday. Figuring out where the fasteners are and the sequence of removal usually is the hardest part of doing the job. Thanks!

This video was incredibly helpful and allowed me to fix the problem. Thanks a lot!

[santosborrero]

Wtf. They couldn’t make it any easier to change the plugs? They used to be accessible back in the day. Now you have to take apart half of the engine wtf.

[johnsumner]

😮 what genius came up with this engine spark plug plan?

[chadlawrence]

I don't think you mentioned it, but the small bolts in the front and back that attach to those metal brackets are 10mm. I love when car manufacturers mix english and metric size bolts on the same car.

[MrShannon]

Awesome video. Short sweet and to the point.

[erictheredelectrician]

Thank you so much for the exceptional tutorial! You gave a clear view of the few things I could not see myself and made it so much less aggravating 😂. Superb video!

[Blackskills]

Check all new spark plug gaps. Make sure they are all same distance in that gap.

[thesios]

Thank you! I think I'm done taking our van to the mechanic for misfiring issues.

I own this vehicle, makes me miss my Jeep. To much work to get to the spark plugs.
