What year is your car? This is like the Fort Knox of engines!
I want to know how to space the spark plugs. You left that out of the video
15bucks for each coil 8 bucks for each plug so it costs @100 bucks to dew tune up aaaaaaiight nigga
Excellent video sir, clear, concise, thank you for your imput.
Thanks but im still unsure about doing it myself
You said you torqued the plugs down…But you didn't say if you used inch pounds or foot pounds!. Alot of people think these Kia Rio's have actual spark plug wires. They use a coil type system. When I called Kia in Bowling Green Kentucky they said they are 189.00 a piece!. There is no reason to replace these unless the coil itself goes bad. They do not go bad like the typical spark plug wires in cars….P.S….Don't let any Kia dealer replace parts that are not necessary. Dealers will claim you need these coils to be replace when nothing is wrong with them, after 40 thousand miles Martin Kia said I needed to replace my serpentine belt, my brakes, my tires, engine coil, flush and drain my coolant, transmission fluid, bleed my brakes etc etc etc etc This when I had only 40 thousand miles.
This was extremely informative. Thanks for the information. Should you ever do a vid changing plugs again, could you SHOW how to tightening them to the appropriate torque? Aside from that, you were abundantly thorough.
How many miles/km when you changed the plugs?
ceramic insulator damaged on each spark plug, buy yourself a key torque.
What about the spark plug wires? Should that be changed
What year was that Kia Rio?
Thanks for a great and clear video!
isint that like a throw away car. you drive it for 5 years then trad it in get your $2000 credit and buy a nother for 10k then drive it 5 year and repeat. its a nice looking car but cheap for under 12k cant beat it its the cheapist on the market.
Great video. 2nd one I came across. The first one said nothing about spark plug gapping tools, disconnecting battery, or cylinder orders. Glad I kept looking. Thanks.
pretty easy looking
You are a great teacher. Please make a video kia Rio 2013 transmission change. Thank you 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
