@CarRepairsMadeSimple

The 1999 TL is a little different since it is a 4 speed transmission. Your car does not have the single clutch pressure solenoid on the front like my car has. However, your car does have a second dual solenoid on top of the transmission that has a screen filter as well. Not sure if those get clogged, but it would be worth removing if possible just for good measure.

It's not a good idea to drop the spark plug into the cylinder. install the new plug the same way you removed it by using the adapter extension bar .
@CarRepairsMadeSimple
@CarRepairsMadeSimple 16 күн бұрын
You're not wrong, but it's highly unlikely a 3" slide at a 45° angle is going to cause any damage or mess up the spark plug gap. Another reason I didn't use the spark plug socket is because the rubber sleeve inside the socket sticks to the spark plug and comes off inside the spark plug tube after installation, and it's annoying. I've replaced spark plugs 3 times between 2 different Acuras's and have had no problems. If your car has a more vertical spark plug tube where the plug may fall straight down, then yes I would use the specific spark plug adapter.

If it's squeaking, that means there's a lack of lubrication and excessive wear is occurring, and if nothing is done, the component will wear out and need to be replaced. Unfortunately, some lady side swiped my car and wrecked the upper control arm, so I was unable to continue my testing to figure out a permanent solution. The silicone spray only lasted about 8 months, but it did work great in the meantime. My theory was that a silicone paste would last a lot longer, but never got to testing it.

I applied this product on my 2009 Nissan Sentra when replaced Front Brakes there, but then read somewhere (I believe on Amazon in comments), than one shop started to use that product and all the cars w/Slide Pins being lubricated w/Ceramic Extreme came back after 6 month, since the Sliding Pins were not moving well, and when they opened the caliper the product got crumbled, smth like that. Copilot AI advised w/this product, and though I always used before 3M Silicone on those pins, I decided to apply Ceramic Extreme, thinking it is a better product, since designed for brakes.
