Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather all necessary tools and parts before starting the repair.
• Disconnect the negative battery terminal to ensure safety.
• Allow the engine to cool if it has been running.

2. Replace Spark Plugs

• Tools Required: Socket set, spark plug socket, torque wrench.
• Remove the engine cover if necessary.
• Disconnect the ignition coils from the spark plugs.
• Using a spark plug socket, carefully remove the old spark plugs.
• Check the gap of the new spark plugs and adjust if necessary.
• Install the new spark plugs, ensuring they are torqued to the manufacturer’s specifications (typically around 13-15 lb-ft).
• Reconnect the ignition coils.

3. Inspect and Replace Ignition Coils (if necessary)

• Tools Required: Socket set, multimeter for testing.
• Remove the ignition coils from the engine.
• Use a multimeter to test the resistance of each coil; compare with specifications.
• If any coils are faulty, replace them with new units.
• Reinstall coils and make sure they are seated properly.

4. Clean or Replace Fuel Injectors

• Tools Required: Fuel injector cleaning kit or replacement injectors.
• Remove the fuel rail to access the injectors.
• If cleaning, use a fuel injector cleaning kit as per the manufacturer's instructions.
• If replacing, install new injectors ensuring they are securely fitted in the fuel rail.
• Reattach the fuel rail and any disconnected lines.

5. Check for Vacuum Leaks

• Tools Required: Smoke machine or carburetor cleaner.
• Inspect all vacuum lines visually for cracks or disconnections.
• If using a smoke machine, apply smoke to the intake to identify leaks.
• Repair or replace any damaged vacuum hoses.
