Can you walk me thru the steps in replacing the 2 ignition coils for my 01 kia sportage? I need to replace the plugs, wires coils and gasket and my mechanic friend has blown me off for over 6 weeks so I have to attempt this myself but have never done an ignition coil before - step by step would be helpful, thanks
This video is to show how to do a compression test, but it will help with dis-assembly, and shows where all parts are located. The only thing I didn't see, was removal of the center cover above the plugs, ans coils. Kia Sportage 2001 Compression Test Definitely a help for plug, and coil change on 2001 Kia Sportage.
Just be ready to get more parts mine took new boots, plugs,wires,and the how to video fore compression is good gets you under valve cover
I have the plugs and wires along with the ignition coil, I just never did a coil before and like I said, my mechanic friend has left me hanging so I am now on my own so I have to do it my self and dont want to screw it up so any videos, step by step help will be greatly appreciated before I tackle this

SOURCE: 2000 kia sportage putting and stalling
fuel filter is down between battery and motor . check coil packs
SOURCE: i have a 2001 kia sportage. it has miss in engine
you could have a bad injector or vacuum leak near #3. or you could have leaking head gasket. or you could have a burnt valve. testing will confirm what is actually wrong, it takes diagnostic equipment to illiminate what isnt the problem

just fpllow your plugs wire to the coil that should do the trick
The coils ar located at the top off spark plugs. It is to coils.
Remove air tunnel on top of motor. Remove plastic cover plased in center motor. Then you will see the coil and spark plugs. Commond problem is oil leak into spark plugs. It will stop the engine. new gasket around topp cover will solve the problem. did the same job today.
Your spark plugs, wires, ignition coils are located underneath a cover under your throttle body on the top center of your engine. You have to remove the throttle body to access ALL the cover bolts (NOTE that its recomended to replace throttle body Gasket/s with new ones). Once the cover is off you will see the 2 coils, each with a wire and cap extending out of them to a spark plug, each coil sits on top of a spark plug with a cap protruding out onto a spark plug. Unscrew the 2 bolts per coil, disconnect the electrical connectors from the harness to the coils, lifting straight up and twisting the coil back and forth as the plug cap may stick to the porcelain of the spark plug, do the same for the plug cap wire end.
