Is your car having starting issues? Let's remove the glow plugs from the Civic. Lift the front bonnet and secure it. Remove the engine cover panel from the Honda and identify the parts to disassemble.

Grip the glow plug with your hands and twist it until it comes out of the cylinder head. Use a socket spanner to unscrew the glow plugs.

Take the new glow plug and insert it into the cylinder head with the socket spanner. Once tightened, refit the engine cover and test the vehicle.
