You've probably noticed you don't have spark plug wires. Don't worry, they're right on top. The Cavalier's 2.4L engine has a cover over the engine, held on by 4 screws. Unplug the ignition control module (should be the only major connector there). Remove the cover gently, it's attached to the coil-on-plug assembly. There's 4 black coil-on-plug insulators attached to that big assembly. You have to gently remove (twist, then pull) each boot from each plug (but they don't necessarily have to be replaced), and then you can remove the plugs from the engine. When they're changed, put boots on the new plugs so they'll line up with the coil assembly, and put it all back together.

The spark plugs are accessed through holes in the valve cover. Follow the spark plug wires to the plugs.

There are 4 small coild on the top of the motor, these are the ignition coils, 1 per spark plug. You have to pull the coils and the spark plugs are under them.

Where are the spark plugs

Locate the spark plug wires in the Cherokee cylinder head. In the 4.0 liter engine, the spark plugs are below the coil rail assembly. On the 4.7 liter engine, the spark plugs are located under each corresponding engine coil.

What size engine does a 2000 Pontiac Grand am have and does it have spark plugs?

It will either have a four cylinder 2.4 liter or a 6 cylinder 3.4 liter.

The 2.4 liter will have four plugs located under the cover on top of the engine. The cover can be removed by removing the four bolts with a 13mm socket, unplugging the connector on the drivers side, and lifting up.

The 3.4 liter will have three plugs on the fron and three plugs on the back. You can follow the plug wires from the coil to the spark plugs. Remove the wires from the plugs and remove/install.

Were is the Ignition coil

On a 3.0 liter engine the coil pack is located on the backside of the intake manifold. You will need to remove the air breather from the engine to see it. On a 3.3-3.8 liter engine the coil pack is located on the top side of engine to the right of the oil filler tube. Before you remove the coil check for ignition fire at the spark plugs with an inline tester for spark. Also check the plugs for fouling condition and replace if needed. hope this will help you!!!

Cant find the spark plugs

Here's a link that will help you. I've included the info that you need to locate the plugs below. Good luck!

http://www.ehow.com/how_4484637_replace-spark-plugs-oldsmobile-alero.html

To gain access to the spark plugs and spark plug wires do the following. In a 2.4 liter engine, remove the ignition coil and module assembly from the top of the engine to gain access. In this Alero model's engine, the spark plugs run down the center of the engine. In a 3.1 liter engine, remove the air cleaner to gain access. The spark plugs are located next to the engine oil reservoir. For a 3.4 liter engine, remove the windshield wiper module cover and rotate the engine for service access. For a 2.2 liter engine, the spark plug wires are located across the top of the engine and require no components to be removed for access to the spark plugs.

Where can I find a spark plug wiring diagram for 1997 3.1l engine

Normally the firing order will be stamped on the top of the intake manifold also the number one plug will be the front one on the drivers side of the car. On the top of the distributor cap you should see a number one that is where the number one plug wire goes follow the firing order on the manifold and go clock wise on the distributor cap
