Video tutorial

In this video, we will see how to change the spark plugs on a Ford Fiesta MK6: we open the hood and check if the original marks on the spark plug caps are still visible. If they are not, we mark them ourselves, from one to four, in order to reposition them correctly.

We remove the rubber sleeve that seals the opening of the cylinder head cover, but not the cable, which could break. We unscrew each spark plug, removing it from its housing.

We insert the new spark plug into the socket wrench, and carefully insert it into the cylinder head, gently turning the spark plug clockwise, then tighten it to 15 Nm. We put the caps back in their original positions, pressing them firmly onto the spark plug heads, and make sure the cables are securely attached.

We can close the hood.
