GMC Acadia Spark Plugs Replacement | Easy and Simple

[@mikespears14]

Great video, easy to follow, useful tips and you get to the point. No time wasting talking about nothing useful, thank you for the help!

These dumbass engineers get crazier every day. Who the hell buries the spark plugs under the damn intake like that? I have a 17' with 50k. I bought the plugs but will hold on to them for awhile with this kind of fuckery. EXCELLENT video! To the point just the facts 😎

[@FalconsGarage]

thx

[@aam.2900]

I was thinking the same thing, like goddamn all that for a spark plug.

[@nallen1006]

Its intentional. They dont want people working on their own shit

[@Sandman1984]

Just did this in my Acadia. Thank you so much for the video. Was a big help!

[@FalconsGarage]

Glad I could help!

[@jakemason9436]

Good to see you back! Take care of yourself sir. Thanks.

[@FalconsGarage]

Thanks, will do!

[@jrb8303]

thanks for this, Im taking a hard look at mine for future maintenance and saw the intake over the value cover. With this video I now know at least how much of a job this is. Thanks again

[@FalconsGarage]

Glad it helped

Just FYI, the Engine Intake Manifold Seals are $9/EACH, not $9 for a set. You will need 6 of them!

[@djscottymaxx]

Yeah everything on those GMC's is expensive like a freakin import but I like my 09 so guess I'll just have to deal with it

[@patrickhilson5998]

Thanks for putting this up! There isnt much out there on these newer Acadias. Cant even find a Haynes Manual! Do you know if there are torque specs on the manifold bolts? Also what gap should the plugs be? Thanks!!

[@darylcohoon5343]

Great vid, thanks for sharing! Where did you get that spark plug socket?

[@FalconsGarage]

that socket I got from Snap on

[@JoseHernandez-hx3rs]

Great to see you again 😀 👍

[@FalconsGarage]

Thanks for the visit

[@wolf19i7]

What's your Opinion on the intake gaskets if they really needed to be replaced or were they OK to Reuse again?

[@joshuaarellano3683]

What’s the name of the gasket kit because the auto parts stores near me don’t have them.

[@FalconsGarage]

just "intake gasket set"

[@shaddtshudy9984]

Did you have to use that spark plug socket that was that long or could you use a regular length one?

[@migi87cup61]

Do you have the part number or place we’re u got yiur intake manifold gasket set

[@FalconsGarage]

no but if you call the dealer or part store they will give it to you

[@mattgomez8902]

Hello I'm Matthew Gomez and I hope you and your family are doing well and enjoying the holidays. Your videos have helped me tremendously so thanks so much the guidance 🙏 . My question is after I completed the thermostat and temp sensor replacement I forgot to connect the throttle body harness connector. Turned on the 2019 acadia 3 time without realizing the throttle body was not connected. Vehicle is vibrating on a cold start, please let me know what I possibly damaged? Thanks for your time,patience and help 🙏 .

[@robertorozco5973]

Bad ass video very helpfully Man !! Thanks

[@jakeschuberth5725]

Great video !! Thanks

[@pingman326]

Can you tell us what the sequence and torque setting for the intake bolts are?

[@FalconsGarage]

25nm (18lb ft) .. sadly cant post a pic here

[@ninetwist3724]

A good idea might be, (depending if you want to spend a little more) to replace the thermostat, and engine coolant sensor while you have the intake off!

[@jakeschuberth2624]

Thanks much for the great video!! It cleared up everything!! Thanks

[@FalconsGarage]

Glad it helped!

[@migi87cup61]

What’s the gasket part number I can’t find

[@FalconsGarage]

GM 12648665 but you can get that anywhere docent have to be dealer

[@RamblinRoadies]

This is crazy. I just put new plugs on my 2017 Buick Enclave and didn't remove anything more than the big plastic cover.

[@cheryldavenport9628]

You can easily get to the rear plugs without taking off the manifold off. Thanks for the unnecessary freak out.

[@NickJ9992]

Not really. Different than the 1st Gen Acadia V6 you speak of.

[@djscottymaxx]

Doesnt even look like my acadia

[@lyndonk5396]

This is the second gen acadia
