Service Overview
Six- and eight-cylinder engines double the plugs and often hide half of them — rear banks under intake manifolds, deep wells behind accessories. Doing them right takes time and the correct procedure.
The service involves all six or eight plugs, intake or component removal where the design requires it, torque to spec, coil boot inspection, and a verification scan.
