i did some searching and i am just confused

I am looking to change my plugs and wires and i am thinking about getting the NGK IX Iradium plugs and don't know which wires to get(i was thinking to get the NGK ones). First question is that, how hard are they to install, cause i don't know what the deal is with the gap? and how hard are wires to install?
last question is that what is the coil and do i need to change it to use iradium plugs?


thanks

Changing plugs is reallly simple. Take it out by loosening it just like a bolt, then put the new ones in. You don't have to do anything with the gaps.

Changing wires is even easier. Each wire has a number, match the new with the old ones. Take out the wires just like unplugging a plug from a wall.

use a plug wrench. otherwise you will hate yourself and your car.
Go with the ngk blues for wires. best b ang for the buck.

How do you tighten them, do you need a torque wrench? Also, How do you loosen them/get them out, do you unscrew them with a wrench as well? Just need clarification

If you look in the manual, it will tell you how many turns you need to turn the spark plugs. On our cars, the spark plugs are SUPER EASY to do. Some of the bigger v6s and v8s are hell to do spark plugs on. Wires are even easier.

not all wires have numbers on them... just do one at a time.. take one old one off get the new one thats the closest to length and put it where you just took the old one off from.

every basic tool set comes with a spark plug socket. as far as a torque wrench.. just get one of those cheap needle type. thier ony like 10$ and they are fairly acurate. the best is the break away, but thier alot more expensive. and for spark plugs and external engine stuff, the cheap-o will do fine.

i dont think you need a torque wrench, i just think they're neat. just use a deep 16mm socket and loosen them. after you loosen them all, you turn the car upside down and shake it.
