1
Cool the engine before attempting to remove any spark plugs.
-
2
Remove the spark plug wires
located across the top of the Eclipse model's engine. The spark plug
wires connected to the spark plugs are the flat circular ends. Grab the
wire around the circle and twist to unlock the wire. Lift up on the wire
to remove it from the engine. Some models with ignition coils above the
spark plug may require you to unhook the wire from the ignition coil to
remove the wire.

Drop the socket with the
extension and socket wrench attached into the cylinder well and on top
of the spark plug. Turn the socket wrench to unscrew and pull the spark
plug out of the engine.

Spray silicone spray into the cylinder well and onto the new spark plug threads.

Insert the new spark plug into
the socket with the threads sticking out. Slide the socket into the
cylinder well and gently turn the wrench to the right to thread the
spark plug into the cylinder head.

Use the tension tool to test the
tension or torque of the new spark plug. Set the tension to the
specifications listed on the spark plug package.

Reattach the spark plug wire to the new spark plug.

Continue this process with the other spark plugs. Be sure to only complete one spark plug replacement at a time.
