Remove the ignition coils,then the spark plugs

Hi there,

First of all, make sure the ignition switch if off. Then you remove the ignition coil electrical connectors from each coil pack. Then you number or label each spark wire so you can put them back in their original location. Then remove all spark plug wires from ignition coil pack. Then remove the ignition coil pack, four mountain screws and remove coil pack

Hope these help.

Strange you ask. A V8, I assume, you would be refering to COP-Coil-On-Plug Ignition Coils. So one per cylinder,8 total.

PO-307 COP Ignition Coil -Cyl #7

Driver side, third cyl/coil from front of engine,is #7

Remove coil cover,one screw on coil.

Top of Form 1
Bottom of Form 1

the spark plugs are located under the ignition coils. Look on the top of the engine and on either side of the throttle body you should see 4 round ignition coils with a two wire harness coming from each. Each one has an 8mm bolt holding them down. remove the bolt on each one to gain access to the plug.... One word of caution though remember which coil goes in which hole or better yet just do them one at a time.
