WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 Buick Cascada, 2018 Buick Cascada, and 2017 Buick Cascada. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Coat a little bit grease (1) on the inside of the ignition coil opening (2). Refer to Adhesives, Fluids, Lubricants, and Sealers .
Use the top of the grease tube (1) to allot the grease into the ignition coil (2).
- The measurement (a) of the grease tube top (without thread) is in accordance to the measurement (b) of the ignition coil coating area.
Install the 4 ignition coils (1).
Install the ignition coil bracket (3).
- Install the 4 ignition coil bolts (2) and tighten to 10 N.m (89 lb in).
- Install the 3 ignition coil bracket bolts (1, 4) and tighten to 10 N.m (89 lb in).
WARNING:
In order to avoid flying sparks and electric shorts, ONLY use the GM special grease (non electrically conducting) for the ignition coils. The usage of other grease could result in a fatal electric shock, fire and severe damage to the vehicle.
NOTE:
The grease tube could be used for at least 25-30 vehicle engines. This should avoid that too much grease is used for a single spark plug. Too much grease could influence the ignition behavior.
