Instructions for Replacing Spark Plugs

Model: Chrysler Pt Cruiser MK 1 - Years 2000-2010
Part: Spark plugs

To replace the spark plugs, work with the engine cold to avoid burns. Once the bonnet is open, remove the intake hose, disconnect the connectors from the throttle body and the intake manifold, which must be removed to access the spark plug seats. After removing the intake manifold, protect the ducts to prevent foreign objects from entering, blow into the spark plug seats to remove dirt, disconnect the leads, and unscrew the spark plugs to install the new ones without exceeding the torque: it is also recommended to spray contact cleaner inside the leads.
