Car Forum / Chrysler Cars / November 2006Changing Spark Plugs 300C
Anyone changed the spark plugs on an 05 Chrysler Hemi 300C? How much of a job is it. They say torquing correctly is essential.

Glenn Beasley Chrysler Tech OT , Glenn , do you know where i can see a photo of Dodge Stratus 2400cc engine crank pulley and cam gear ?

Hard to clean ! My 2000 Toy 2700cc had them . I dump gas in the hole and blew out with shop air , but you always fear there's something that will drop down in the hole and enter cylinder as you pull the plug out ! Long ago , buddy of mine destroyed RX7 engine . All he did was change plugs , but a bit of carbon dropped into the engine and bit off large pieces of the aluminum matric apex seals .

Hard to clean ! NEW engines? Those were used on the 1950s Hemis, and again in the 60's on the 426 Hemi. The slant-6 also had little short ones, not nearly as long. Be sure to coat the threads with anti-seize lube. Hand start the plugs in their holes. If you don't have a torque wrench, torque new plugs snug plus 1/4 turn to compress the gasket. |
