  • Very good! Couldn't be any more clear. Takes the 'unknown fear' out of the unknown. Great, thanks,,,,,,,,,,

  • @fleabag000 lol yes that was my plan , I hate opening a box (hood) and going ...ok there are spark plugs somewhere in here ...wait ...where is the engine shaking your head as all you see are a bunch of plastic covers hiding it lmao !

  • Thanks for the video.

  • @thesqaanalyst your welcome , hope it helped you out , it really is a very easy job to complete !

  • Thanks for posting. Quick question! Do the spark plugs come pre-measured? 

  • @Antoeknee19 ***not a smart a** answer*** no matter what anyone tells you , no spark plug comes pre-gapped , they are made in a way that they are designed to have a certain range they can be gaped in , so they may be close to right , but need to be adjusted to be correct , even rough handling of them can affect if there is even a gap present when you unbox them , any parts store will gap them up for you at the counter if you ask , but I would buy one of the gap tools there incase you drop one

  • @towrecker Good to know! thank you!

  • Thanks for posting - this is great for us DIY Mazda 3 owners! Much appreciated!

  • @hardlylaffing that was my plan , glad it helped out !!!

  • This isn't a Mazdaspeed 3. Nice try though.

  • @Jordan454545 yes it is , want the first of the vin ? 

  • @towrecker It's not. It's a regular Mazda 3. Mazdaspeed 3 has the 2.3 DISI Turbo motor.

  • @RoniisH one would think that yes , but bill gatton mazda said it is indeed , thats why none of the parts for a normal 3 don't fit , the vin sure does decode as a speed car , I told them I wanted the turbo

  • @towrecker Well, interesting car in that case...

  • @RoniisH I think it was ordered by mistake somehow , it has the speed suspension and all , just the wrong engine ...well missing turbo lol

  • @Jordan454545 not a turbo one but you change the plugs the exact same way.. Only difference is you got to remove the top mount first.

  • say you were to install new plugs...do you need to calibrate the plugs at all using gage blocks or something?

  • @c7lee the plugs do need to be set yes , but any parts store will help you out with that if you ask , very quick ,and simple .

  • great advice, mine is a mazda 5, 2007

  • Thanks for posting. You've saved me a lot of cash.

  • how are you liking the car i really want to get a mazdaspeed 3, keep puttin videos for this car, thanks dude!

  • @Victor0328 I hate the car , the wife loves it , it does run good , and gets good fuel mileage though ...just not my kind of car ...

  • I like the wires idiot proofed.

  • @MrBlueroads nothing is idiot proof though lol

  • @towrecker thats true i could yank the ends off of em

  • I hate fwd lol

  • That is a heck of alot easier than some of those sidways sitten fwd cars.Some of them you would think you have to take apart half the engine to get at the back ones.I don't like sideways engines or fwd really.I guess in part to that also is these cheaper fwd cars have no frame except around the engine and the back axel is more or less a trailor axel.
