2000-2007 Mazda Tribute Head Removal (Ford 3.0L V6) Part 1

[@clintlewis1719]

I almost passed out when you took the impact to the plug. You got me good on that one

[@SN1P3R808]

🤣

[@TheDeadCylinders]

Good lord sir. When you blasted that plug in with the impact I was about to lose it!

[@TheDeadCylinders]

I’ve got the same exact issue as you. Dude before me used an impact and stripped 5/6 of the plugs 😂

[@Tylongkong]

@@TheDeadCylinders wow that sucks, are you able to coil them? My issue was someone had already coiled it and the coil blew out.

[@TheDeadCylinders]

@@Tylongkong I was able to coil one of them and repair three others. But there are two plugs that refuse to come out they are so stuck I have to resort to just doing the heads. Super frustraiting.

[@vibrantrh3018]

Thank you! Have the same engine in an MPV, think yours is the only video on head replacement for this engine

[@lennonvihaan6148]

You prolly dont care but if you're stoned like me during the covid times you can watch pretty much all of the new movies and series on Instaflixxer. Have been streaming with my gf for the last days xD

[@scottomari1468]

@Lennon Vihaan Yup, have been using instaflixxer for since november myself :D

[@funstuff192]

HAHAHA u got me with the impact spark plug thing

[@gregoh7]

Dude! Thank you so much. Now I decided not to mess up with head gasket :)

[@jonderrick25]

How u get alternator bracket bolts out?

[@jonderrick25]

I’m removing both heads where do I need to set the marks at

[@Tate.TopG.]

I know it's 3 years late, but i would like to know if you just took the 2 bolts from the alternator braket but were still able to take the timing cover off the engine. I rounded up the 3 one in the back so i wont be able to take it off.

[@BeerNuggets]

This old but I never put the rear stud back in once it came out. I've heard of others replacing it with a bolt like the bottom two

[@funstuff192]

Make more videos dude this is really good. But do it horizontal lol

[@Tylongkong]

Thanks man, I'm starting to work on more videos again.

[@justinwaight9252]

To get to the exhaust studs... You have to remove the alternator to get to them?

[@Mocredible]

Question: In order to change head gaskets, would you have to remove the whole head?

[@Tylongkong]

Yes, the head will have to be removed to replace the head gasket.

[@luiesmaes5333]

Where’s the second video

[@McAdamsMechanics]

ZZZT ZZZT woops that was supposed to loosen the plug. Welp, we were taking the head off anyway 😅

[@jonathanbox3033]

The reason you have to remove the head with the engine in the "neutral" position is that engine is an interference engine and you would more than likely bend the valves if you didn't have it in the "neutral" position with no pressure.

[@michelewiltz5772]

Impact on spark plug got me but not knowing where #1 is where you lost me, Hint imagine where the toque converter is sit on it with legs around the motor and number 1 is on the right and closest to you, good luck

[@willsrestorations]

Please explain to me how you're always saying through the video that it's a pain in the butt to get this and that off. My goodness this is an easy job man

[@willsrestorations]

YES FOLKS THERE IS NO PART TOO BECAUSE THIS WAS DONE SO HALF-ASSED BACKWARDS THAT THERE'S NO WAY THAT THIS MODE AROUND PROPERLY WHEN HE WAS DONE THAT'S WHY THERE IS NO PART TOO, THANK GOD FOR THAT BECAUSE THIS WAS ONE OF THE MOST DISTURBING VIDEOS I EVER SEEN OF A SO-CALLED MECHANIC TRYING TO DO A SIMPLE JOB

[@grampajoeandhisbass9319]

Pretty cool video and very informative but....why the F*CK did you record it in portrait mode? 2/3s of the screen is blank....*facepalm*

[@paulgorowitz4007]
