Replacing Spark Plugs on Ford Focus

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

Replace the damaged spark plugs on a Ford Focus. Open the bonnet and lift it, securing it in place. Remove the soundproofing panel covering the engine, then unscrew the coils on the cylinder head using a screwdriver (loosen the screws on the sides). Next, use a socket wrench to unscrew the spark plugs and pull them out of the cylinder head. Take the new spark plugs and guide them into the cylinder head using the extension of the socket wrench, tighten them, and connect the power coils to each spark plug with new leads. Screw in the coils and refit the soundproofing panel of the car.
