How do I change the sparkplugs on my B18A?

Post by RyanA »

Does anyone know how to change the spark plugs on a B18? Do I have to pull the transmission? Or the head? When I pull the plug wires, I see honda calls them "high tension" leads. Are they under pressure? Where can I relieve this pressure so I don't get hurt when I pull the plug wires?

Did I say it was a joke? I need to change my spark plugs tonight so I can go to work in the morning but I'm afraid to pull off my spark plug wires because they are under high pressure! HELP!

We have a Ford, Chrysler, and Chevrolet dealership here. They aren't open tonight? Someone told me that I could let the air out of my tires. Since it's a 4 cylinder car, each tire holds the pressure from a high tension lead to each plug. Does this sound right?

SHIT!!!!! I just singed the hair off of my head and my eyebrows! Some jackass PM'd me and said if I held a lighter up to my gas filler neck, I'd be able to see the pressure relief valve for the high tension leads. Obviously, I should have used a flashlight. Gas is like flammable or something!!!
