Removal and Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. NOTE: Use compressed air to remove any foreign material from the ignition coil-on-plugs and surrounding area before removing the ignition coil-on-plugs.

    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.

    Remove the 8 bolts and the 8 ignition coil-on-plugs.

    • To install, tighten to 6 Nm (53 lb-in).
  3. 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.
