Easy replacement of spark plugs on PT Cruiser Turbo (N/A requires removing Intake manifold)

[@user-vs5zy3lj3j]

I purchased a 2005 PT Cruiser GT from my dad not too long ago- the spark plugs are in need of replacement so thank you, brother!

Honestly the most informative video on this problem... ThanX

Thank you. Glad I could help.

***at the time that I made this video, I was new to PT Cruiser and didn't know the N/A actually requires the removal of the intake manifold so I recommend doing the intake gaskets and possibly valve cover gasket if needed. I apologize for any confusion***

Thanks for the videos, but remember that your turbo manifold body is not plastic like on regular PT engines, the turbo manifold is not as wide in body and give the clearance that you showing. One big plus for having the turbo! Thanks again

I am also here to learn so I appreciate that expanded comment. I have not worked on the non turbo so this is good info. I'll be uploading a video on port and polishing soon as I'm gonna be doing it to my turbo. Best regards!

Glad to see this. I was positve i changed my plugs without removing the manifold. Was starting to think i was crazy when everyone says to remove manifold lol

[@luiselmilusos7625]

Good morning. This is for a turbo model. If you have a N/A, manifold must come off.

@@luiselmilusos7625 mine is non turbo. the manifold is very similar and you dont have to take it off

[@luiselmilusos7625]

@@CS-en5xz nice. Perhaps someone changed it to the turbo manifold. Glad I could help. I'll make a video of the non turbo model showing removal of the intake soon. Blessings!

@@luiselmilusos7625 i dont think it was changed. It looks like the difference is that it is carbon fiber or plastic. Anyway. Thanks for the video. When i pulled the plugs someone made the gap bigger than my gap tool could even measure. Had a misfire... Wonder why 😂

I just watched this and put the 90 degree bend wire on cylinder three like you said it was before and that was correct, I did the way you showed and car ran terrible until I switched it back too how it was before

I’m literally doing this tomorrow on a 2003 dream cruiser that I’m fixing up for my son’s 16th birthday.

[@luiselmilusos7625]

Thus is for the turbo model. N/A does require removal. Thank you for watching!
