Spark plug replacement! — Toyota Mark II, 2.5 liter, 2000
Well, it's time to change the spark plugs! In general, the matter is as always, I came to the garage, took out a tool, started to unscrew everything ... And you need to unscrew a lot ... Here, in order to get to the candles, you need to disassemble the floor of the engine))) In the end, I dismantled everything that interfered with me for direct access to the candles and! Oh hell! Almost all of them were in oil... And the gaskets under the valve covers were to blame... They were leaking! I started collecting everything back with mats ... The next day I went to the store for gaskets ... I bought it, gave it 500 for each ... I asked the seller in the store, write where it is! He drew on the packages with a marker, where is the left, where is the right! Well, all over again! Garage, dismantling and ...
Shit... The salesman gave me two LEFT pads... I was ANGRY! But the worst thing was when I tell a friend, let's get the old one out of the trash! And he looked at me with such eyes O_O I ask Che? He- I broke them! Again, mats and all the accompanying ones... I'm digging in the trash can... And lo and behold! She is the whole! He tore the wrong one! In general, I smeared it with sealant, put everything back together, FINALLY replaced the candles, and began to collect everything ... Since it was late in the evening, the stores were closed and there could be no talk of an exchange. So I had to assemble it with one new and one old gasket ... The next day I came to the store and said, exchange me for the right gasket, otherwise you gave two left ones! He took out a whole box of these gaskets and they turned out to be ALL LEFT O_o
In general, they gave me the money ... I bought the necessary gasket in another store, it remains to replace it ... Fortunately, access to the right valve cover is easier, you don’t have to disassemble everything so much)))
After replacing the candles, some jerks that were present on the old broken candles disappeared ... well, more pleasant acceleration! I also read literature when collecting, because. could not correctly position the spark plug wires and coils)))
Well, after a couple of days, I replaced the second gasket! Well, of course, I had to disassemble everything again! But surprisingly, everything went faster, already supposedly KNOWING))) I took off everything and washed it ... Since in some places there was soot the size of a finger ...
