Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather necessary tools and parts.
• Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface, and the engine is cool.
• Disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent electrical shorts.

2. Inspect and Replace Spark Plugs

• Remove the ignition coil covers using a socket set.
• Disconnect ignition coil connectors and remove the coils.
• Remove the spark plugs using a spark plug socket.
• Inspect spark plugs for wear; replace with new ones if necessary (OEM recommended).
• Reinstall spark plugs, torquing to manufacturer specifications (typically 13-15 ft-lbs).

3. Inspect and Test Ignition Coils

• Visually inspect ignition coils for cracks or burns.
• Use a multimeter to test the primary and secondary resistance of each coil (refer to specifications).
• Replace any faulty ignition coils with OEM parts.

4. Check Fuel Injectors

• Remove fuel rail if necessary to access injectors.
• Inspect injectors for clogs or leaks; clean if needed or replace if damaged.
• Reinstall fuel rail securely and connect all wiring and hoses.

5. Inspect Vacuum Hoses

• Visually inspect all vacuum hoses for cracks, breaks, or loose fittings.
• Replace any damaged hoses with OEM replacements.

6. Test and Replace Fuel Pump (if needed)

• Use a fuel pressure gauge to check fuel system pressure (refer to specifications).
• If pressure is low, replace the fuel pump and filter as necessary.
