Replacing Spark Plugs in a Ford Fiesta

Model: Ford Fiesta Fiesta 5, MK 5, MK V - Years 2002-2008
Part: Spark plugs

Replacing the spark plugs in a Ford Fiesta engine? Lift the front bonnet to access the spark plugs; start by removing the air filter housing cover: there are securing screws on top of it. Disconnect the coil from the cylinder head: grasp it with your hands and move it to extract it from above the head. Use a socket to unscrew the spark plugs and pull them out of the engine block. Fit the new spark plugs one at a time into the cylinder head, securing all the coils. Screw in the securing screws on top of the engine soundproofing cover.
