spark plugs

Hey, I changed all 5 of spark plugs, tempted many times on the 6th. Ran out of time, and daylight: 2 weeks later, successfully changed 6th spark plug, ran fine for about 2 trips to local store, now not wanting to switch gears. It hesitates, tries to go, and then catches. (slings me forward)...

Hey all, ‘03 n/a 3.3 4x4 se not sure if anyone will respond before I either figure it out or what, but I changed my fuel injectors, fuel pressure regulator, spark plugs, and drivers side valve cover gasket yesterday. I put it all back together today, and I payed very close attention to...

Hi guys, My engine is running extremely rough after removing and re-installing the supercharger, intake manifold collector and installing new spark plugs. Here's what it sounds like: While replacing my t-stat housing, I had to remove the supercharger and intake manifold collector, and...

Have a 2002 X, 3.3 non-supercharged 4x4, auto tranny with 210,000 miles under it. It will start perfectly and idle perfectly, when you try to drive it it has no power, and won't take gas only in one spot maybe 1/4 of the way down but thats it you can floor it and it bogs down and slows down...

I have a 2006 Xterra I bought used from a dealer in June 2010 with 47K miles. I'm now approaching 120K miles and so far the vehicle has been very reliable and I have had no major problems with the radiator or timing chains I have read about on the forums. It will be paid off in June of this...

Hi all, I thought the wires weren't important. As we all know, they are. So I am planning on doing so this weekend. Here's my question: Have I damaged the new iridium plugs by not changing the wires? Should I just redo the plugs AND the wires together? Or will just doing the plugs be A-o-kay...

I'm a little past due to do the timing belt change on my '04 V6. I have some experience with a wrench but am unsure if this is a job I should tackle on my own. I have read through the DIY for the change and it looks pretty straight forward. Is ht e write up a good representation of how the...

trying to remove the 6th spark plug from behind the engine. i got the cable off and after many failed tries, and cursing for a couple hours, i was able to get the socket onto the spark plug. it has the rubber on the inside to grip and everything, but now it's not loosening properly. i have a 6"...

Just thought i'd do a bit of an intro: I've had my 2000 X (SE, 3.3L V6) for just over 3 years now and I've pretty much been in love with it ever since. Its primarily stock but I've been thinking about enhancing its power performance and putting in a stereo/pc/lcd. A guard rail in the front...

Has anybody ever changed their own spark plugs on a supercharged X. The plugs look like they are extremely hard to get to. The owners manual says to take it to a dealer. I haven't dug into it to much yet. It will probably be next weekends project. Any tips or advice is greatly appreciated...
