Video tutorial

In this tutorial video, you can see how to replace the spark plugs on a Citroen C3. The first step is to lift the bonnet and secure it with the prop rod. Disconnect the ventilation valve and the intake hose from the intake manifold. Remove the flexible ventilation hoses from the crankcase.

Disconnect the connectors from the throttle valve and the ignition coil. Using a 10 mm socket, unscrew the bracket of the ignition coil, then remove the ignition coil from the spark plug housing; clean any dust and debris present in the spark plug holes.

Using a 16 mm socket, unscrew the spark plugs and remove them using a telescopic magnet. Replace the faulty spark plugs with new ones and reassemble all parts in reverse order.
