  1. Disconnect the 8 ignition coil-on-plug electrical connectors.
  2. NOTE: When removing the ignition coil-on-plugs, a slight twisting motion will break the seal and ease removal.

    • To install, tighten to 6 Nm (53 lb-in).
  4. Inspect the ignition coil-on-plug seals for rips, nicks or tears. Remove and discard any damaged ignition coil-on-plug seals.
    • To install, slide the new ignition coil-on-plug seal onto the ignition coil-on-plug until it is fully seated at the top of the ignition coil-on-plug.
