hey katie, great job. love the nails. please do yourself a favor and put a little anti seize on the threads. letting the plugs drop into place could hit and change your gap. install a rubber into socket and this will hold your plugs. ken
Oh, taking spark plugs out of a hot engine can result in damaged threads of the engine. Putting spark plugs into a hot engine can make the spark plugs seize in the engine because the materials of the plug and of the engine can expand/shrink at different rates..
I give you props for the DIY vid but you need to be more careful, Plugs are like the heart of your car so you need to be more gentle when you replace. Never just let them drop or fall in like what you just did. You can easily damage the plug, slowly hand tighten and them snug them with your wrench.. dont kill them.
The tighter the better? No, no, no! It's very easy to strip out the threads in an aluminum head. You should use a torque wrench and tighten them to the amount depending on the type of spark plug and head material or your engine specs.
nice not many girls that i know that could do anything on their cars and by the way ist an audi right? because i know that vw and audi look and use almost the same parts so yeah

Do you ever change the plugs when the engine is hot? I've heard that can be risky because you can damage something somehow
