Changing spark plugs 2001 Kia sportage - 2001 Kia Sportage

Here's a video on changing your rear spark plugs. 2007 Kia Sportage EX rear spark plug replacement

The ignition wires break down over time to to the high voltage they carry as well as underhood engine temperatures. It is a good idea to replace them during spark plug change to avoid any chance of misfires

Spark plugs, plugs wires, coil, igntion module, or bad cylinder. One or all or any combination

You will have to remove the in-take, not that bad of a job, about 8 bolts hold the in-take, remove bolts and throttle body, lift up on in-take to remove spark plugs.

I would check the connectors on the coil packs, spark plugs and wires and replace them if they at all seem worn or tired. My 2000 sportage ran rough so I replaced the fuel filter, coil packs, spark plugs and wires, cleaned out the IAC valve, TPS, throttle body and intake tube, tightened the screws on the fuel pump access door under the right rear seat and cleaned the ground wire and the contact surface and I added 1 ground wire from the block to the firewall and 1 from the valve cover to the firewall. Your timing is more than likely right where it needs to be but the ignition may be slightly missing from a bad coil pack, dirty or fouled plugs or a bad plug wire.

the spark plugs are located in the head. you must remove the upper half intake manifold first, it has three bolts 12mm. then remove the black plastic cover down the center of the valve cover, six 10mm bolts. remove the two coils and plug wires. now you have access to your spark plugs. Good Luck

HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY DAUGHTERS CAR---CHANGED THE SPARK PLUGS AND OIL IN THE HOLES OF THE SPARK PLUGS WIRE TOPS--- CHANGED THE VALVE COVER GASKET AND ITS BEEN CLOSE TO 4 MONTHS AND NO OIL AT ALL IN HOLES---IF YOU LOOK AT THE GASKET YOU CAN TELL IT LET THE OIL OUT---THE GASKET SITS INSIDE THE VALVE COVER VERY SNUGLY--THE OLD ONE WAS VERY LOOSE---AS FAR AS OIL GOING INTO THE SPARK PLUG CYLINDER IT WILL BLOW WHITE SMOLE FOR ALITTLE WHILE BUT EVENTUALLY BURN OFF---HOPE THIS HELPS---DENNIS

You have to remove intake, spark plug's sit under it.Not as bad as it look's to do the job.

There are only two wires to replace because of the two coil packs that sit directly on the other two plugs.

you extracting the urine ???spark plugs on a diesel hahahahahah
