How to change the candles of the Renault Kangoo 1

Model: Renault Kangoo MK 1, KC, KW - Years 1997-2008
Part: Spark plugs

Let's see how to change the spark plugs of the Renault Kangoo MK1: first of all, we will have to disconnect the battery and make sure that the engine is cold. Then we disconnect the ventilation tube leading to the airbox, using a flat screwdriver. This will allow us to remove the airbox. Disconnect the connectors of the spark plug wires, pulling them away with a slight pressure: before removing them, take a picture, to make sure to reassemble them correctly. Clean the spark plug wells with compressed air and then with a 14 mm socket wrench and an extension, unscrew and remove the old spark plugs; apply a thin layer of anti-seize grease on the thread of the new spark plug, insert the new spark plugs and tighten them with the correct torque (25 Nm), reconnect the wires, reassemble the airbox and the ventilation tube, then the battery. Start the engine and let it run for a few minutes.
