HI everyone,first i want to say i did the MAF sensor cleaning job, thank you~~

now i want to change the coil and wire, because my car's spark plug got change already...so i have a couple questions...

so i have to buy a set of coil and a set of wire?..what do they call?

second, i did look at the DIY thread about change coil....i know i am dumb, but i want to see if anyone got more pics to go through every single step (video would be great~O~)..so that i am sure i don't mess up the car?

THANKS!!

 

I'm going to make a DIY for changing out coils on Saturday.

Where are you located in California? If you are close to me, I can help you out.

 

all u need is a 10mm socket, extension bar, a ratchet, and maybe 1/2 hour of time.

 

I felt the same way when I changed mine but if you can unscrew and screw stuff together you should be more than fine........just make sure the engine bay is cool or else....well u know the rest

 

SE3P , i am in SF~O~...


yeah i have the tools.....i am just scared..~~but i am not planning to do it until maybe mid-JULY..

but anyways...so i should buy a set of coil and wire is that correct?i see BHR sounds pretty good in this forum, what is the background of that?

 

the bhr guys are cool, they have a good rep on customer service...you can buy the stock coils and wires from them or you can buy their aftermarket kit....i say you buy coils, aftermarket wires (racing beat has good ones), and the stock spark plugs, REALLY easy to change out...

to change out the coils all you need is a rachet, extension and i believe a 10mm socket...theres 4 nuts that need to come out, really easy to see and get too, just do one at a time. After the nut is out just unclip the coil and bam pull it out and replace

 

Sorry to digress from the main subject, but what did you use to clean the MAF sensor?

 

You can use Electric Contact Cleaner or buy a cleaner that actually says MAF Cleaner.
Should be able to get these at the local Auto store.

 

oh i use the MAF sensor cleaner, bought from Kragen for 7$

 

as said above very easy just 4 bolts unplug and plug the new one back in
