How to replace the spark plugs on a Ford Focus

Model: Ford Focus MK 2, Focus 2 - Years 2004-2011
Part: Spark plugs

Today we will explain how to replace the spark plugs of the Ford Focus. First, open the front hood and cover the bumper bodywork with a cloth to avoid scratching it during the replacement procedure. Then, remove the spark plug caps from the spark plug holes, being careful not to damage the filters. Clean the holes using an air compressor. Unscrew the spark plugs using a spark plug socket n°16 and a ratchet wrench. Remove the spark plugs, remembering their positions. Apply high-temperature anti-seize lubricant to the threads of the new spark plugs and proceed to insert them into the holes. Screw the spark plugs with the n°16 socket and tighten to a torque of 15 Nm. Replace the caps and run the engine for a few minutes to ensure that the component is functioning correctly.
