And 2024

[@kabbott98]

You guys rock actually following the wires down to the plugs was a huge help as all the diagrams online were confusing

[@Life_Has_Changed]

Yo Keelan! Glad we helped you out, trying our best to help others. 🙏

[@100GTAGUY]

Lmao sniffed the ignition pack after removing it, made my day right there.

[@illmatic9480]

Thanks for the video, y'all. About to do the same thing to my 02 3.0 and this made me feel better about not f%&king it up.

[@Life_Has_Changed]

Thanks col.greasebagmcqueen! Glad the tutorial helped.

[@djcrash1104]

Thanks!! I had mine cross wired. Very helpful.

[@Life_Has_Changed]

Thanks djcrash! Glad it helped! 🙏

[@ponchobaby]

does your car get messed up if you do that ?

[@djcrash1104]

@@ponchobaby no it just runs like crap until you get the wires right.

[@normanleach5427]

Thanks man.

[@RichardRuth]

Should the negative battery wire get unhooked beforehand?

[@weeverob]

Should/can you put a bit of lube or something like it on the threads to keep the plug from sticking for future removal?

[@Life_Has_Changed]

I don't recommend it as the threads on plugs these days have protection, and they don't seize up. Also when you put lube it may cause you to over tighten, and dont over tighten spark plugs, do it to the manufacturers spec, otherwise it could misfire. But you could put dielectric Grease on the plug boot. Hope that helps!

[@weeverob]

@@Life_Has_Changed thx! Makes sense

[@jtsales6144]

Thank you

[@gardiner516]

How about using aluminum anti seize compound on the spark plug threads Easier to tale out

[@Life_Has_Changed]

I don't recommend it as the threads on plugs these days have protection, and they don't seize up. Also when you put anti seize it lubricates the threads and it may be over tightened. And dont over tighten spark plugs, do it to the manufacturers spec, otherwise it could misfire. Hope that helps!

[@choppa5300]

Got some from part store for my 2007 ford ranger 3.0L v6 . Is that the gap recommendations ? .I got the truck with out owners manual. Pre set gap is @ 0.040 on the first one.

[@Life_Has_Changed]

0.044 is what we set our plugs to based off the Haynes repair manual. So 0.40 should be good👍

[@toniocavalari6936]

I didn't see you take the intake manifold off 😳 ? Is it necessary in this Ranger 3.0 liter ? Is it pretty easy in your opinion to replace plugs ? What would you say is the most difficult part of this job on this Ranger 3.0 ? Thanks for helping in with this video 'Mijo ' 👍😎

[@Life_Has_Changed]

Hey tonio, taking off the intake manifold isn't necessary on the 3.0. I would say it is fairly easy, but it'll take some time maybe 1 - 2 hours. The hardest part is getting the plugs closest to the firewall. But it is manageable, glad to help amigo!

[@toniocavalari6936]

@@Life_Has_Changed Right on ' keep up the good work ' they say ' that time on a job will turn into experience 😎👍🇺🇲

[@Josh-e2d2h]

How long does it take to replace the wires and plugs minus the coil pack

[@Life_Has_Changed]

Hey Josh! To change everything without the coil pack is like 45mins. And, with the coil pack, just extra 5 mins to install. Hope that helps!👌

[@careditor]

thanks gonna do this

[@wtorres562]

You should disconnect the negative wire first.

[@mkeritz266]

I wanted to hear it start and idle

[@donaldbaisden1509]

What’s the year on the truck

[@Life_Has_Changed]

It's a year 2000

[@malikaijohnson6807]

Wanted to learn how to change my plugs. That’s it. The only part of the video you skipped was how to get to it. Like how in any way was this not a waste of time

[@minorajanel185]

Gracias amigos esto me ayudo mucho

[@tammyallen8205]

Muy Bueno Trabajo! Muchas Gracias.. 🙏

[@ernestperez1294]

Is it the same for 96 4.0

[@Life_Has_Changed]

It will be similar however the position of the plugs might be different. The trq spec is 7-15 ft lbs which is a similar range to the 3.0. Hope that helps! 🙏

[@askthehairguy]

Do you know of any Upgrade coils packs out there?

[@Life_Has_Changed]

I am not aware of any, but there might be.

[@gracielatevo2737]

Good job! 👍👍👍

[@snoopy2themoon]

i have code p0351 meaning ignition cyclinder 1. i was going to do a complete tune up like this. this should fix it right. 06 V6 3.0

[@Life_Has_Changed]

Yea p0351 usually means electrical issue and that could result in a misfire. Usually changing the spark plugs, or the ignition coil would fix it. But if it doesn't you may have a vacuum leak or the throttle body could be dirty from carbon buildup. Hope that helps!

[@ShineEmpireAutoDetailing-mv1sl]

This doesn’t work on some rangers, diagrams are flipped for some don’t ruin your truck like I did following this for wires

[@whalahiguy]

Last time I was at harbour freight I had a hobo fright
