You are welcome Tom. Thanks for watching.
Thank you Robert. That’s an excellent instructional video!
Hi Valerie, I no longer have access to the Honda. If I have the opportunity to do a valve adjustment I will make a video of it. Thanks for watching and do subscribe, that way you will see the video when it is posted.
you are awesome and very professional. I know know how to change my spark plugs on my honda pilot. question how do I change the valve adjustments can you make a video for that?
You are welcome, thanks for watching.
Robert- Thank you very much for posting this video. NTB quoted me $301 to replace the plugs in our Pilot and I did it for $70 thanks to you!! Without seeing your video I never would have tried it myself but it was actually quite simple. Thanks again!!
Not sure, most are 18 ft lbs.
What’s the recommended torque to tighten up the spark plug?
Thanks for watching.
You are welcome. Thank you for watching.
thanks for this video. I appreciate the help…
Wow…you sure made this look easy! I have been putting off changing the plugs on my 2003 Pilot for years. Now I will jump on it and get it done! Thank you sir!
Thank you for posting.
NGK Laser Iridium plugs are the factory recommended plugs. NGK Platinum plugs would be a step down and not factory recommended.
You are welcome. Glad it helped.
a very well demonstration sir! clearly and easy to understand. appreciate your doing this, esp.for Us novice on these kind of DIY job.Thank you and more power to you
Thank you
Thanks for watching. I will put that request on my video to do list.
Hello I liked you video it was very knowledgeable and as for me changing the spark plugs on my 2006 Honda pilot I’m only @ 41000 original miles. I wanted to also know could you please do a video on how to replace the high and low beams bulbs and possibly the fog lights bulbs it would be very helpful to me and lots of other people Thanks again for your expertise
Thank you, Robert! Because you showed it so easy, I just finished changing out the plugs on my 2006 Honda Pilot. The originals lasted 120,000 miles, although I wouldn’t recommend waiting that long. I would add that one might invest in a 5/8″ spark plug socket with the rubber liner. It made taking out and putting in the new plugs a snap.
You can find it in the owners manual or on the sticker under the hood. I do not know.
What’s the recommended plug gap for an ’06 honda?
A lot of those geeked up plugs do not last as long as the required plugs do. Spending the extra money is a waste in many motors because the motor is designed to run well with the OEM style plugs. The prime example is my turbo Volvo, it runs best with the cheap coper tip plugs and sometimes will misfire with platinum plugs.
Any reason why you did not use the platinum ngk plugs?
Yes I always use a little. The manual does NOT recommend the use of anti-seize on spark plugs.
did you use anti-seize on your threads for your plugs.
LOL, you never know. That 15 seconds might save someone 10 minutes.
Excellent video seemed to cover all the important details. You could probably leave off how to open the hood.
I wish somehow you could manage to set-up your cam, so we could fully enjoy watching you perform entire maintenance tasks. You have great experience in repairing cars, and watching the whole job would benefit people more. Thanks for the videos.
Have you ever had any problems with Bosch spark plugs in your Honda?
Glad it helped.
Great vid and detailing
