You will have to take the air ducting off to acess the ignition module. Once you take the 4 mounting bolts off and lift the ignition module off, you will be able to see the 4 plugs. Everything is on the top of the engine in the middle. Here is a picture od the ignition module and the 4 spark plug "boots"

    My 2002 Saturn Vue is a 6 cylinder. Would there be 6 plugs and would they be in the same place?

    On a V6 there will be two banks of 3 coils. I can't post a picture to this reply but it looks like they are on the tops of each bank, in the center.

Wondering if the kia rio has spark plugs or is it electronic, if electroni how do i change them myself ?

Yes it has spark plugs, there is no other way a gasoline engine can run. If you have to ask, you should not attempt it. Have a garage replace them for you. Use only NGK or Denso spark plugs. Many a easy job has been totally screwed up by people trying to save a dollar.

I am trying to find out how to rotate my tires and find spark plu

rotate tires front to back on the same side.

if you have an engine appearence cover, you must remove it. otherwise the spark plugs should be easy to locate. just follow the spark plug wires to the spark plug. in the case of a coil for each plug, the coil will have to be remove to access the plug

1988 F150 cranks / turns when trying to start but will not fire. it gets fuel, coil , ignition module changed, ingition unit on steeing wheel under dash has also been changed. acts like no combustion is...

no combustion or no compression? timing chain broke? you did not supply enough info about what you tested.or how. remove a spark plug wire if you dont like shcks take an old spark plug two alligator clips and a piece of wire attatch to the hex metal body of this old plug and connect the wire you just removed run the starter while watching for strong!!! spark.you can have a weak spark and no start=bad coil.i think but maybe wrong that this vehicle still uses aignition module located somewhere on the fender.find a parts locator maybe at the library. this module was aproblem for decades.have fun.

Change sparks plugs on 06 hyundai sonata v6

You didn't specify whether you have the (4) cylinder or the (6) cylinder engine..... I have a 2004 Hyundai Sonata 2.4L 4 cylinder and I just changed the spark plugs in it. I believe that the 2005 2.4L engine is the same. To locate and change the (4) spark plugs on a 2004 Hyundai 2.4L 4 cylinder engine: Remove the (4) 12mm bolts from the decorative plastic engine cover. Remove plastic cover from engine and place it off to the side out of your way. Standing in front of the car, the (4) spark plugs are located laterally (left to right) in the recessed area underneath where the plastic engine cover was removed. Note: This engine has (2) coils....They are located above spark plugs number (2) and (3) from left to right. Starting with the fist spark plug on the left: Remove the spark plug cable by pulling straight up on the insulated connector. Using a spark plug socket, remove the old spark plug and install a new one in it's place. To access the second spark plug from the left, remove the electrical connector and the spark plug cable wire from coil number (1) and then remove the (2) 12mm bolts that secure the coil to the engine. Spark plug number (2) is located directly under the coil. Lift the coil straight up removing the insulated connector from spark plug number (2). Using a spark plug socket, remove old spark and install a new one in it's place. Repeat same procedures for spark plugs number (3) and (4). Note: If you have the (6) cylinder engine, the front (3) sparks pluge are readilly accessible but in order to access the (3) rear spark plugs, you will have to remove the intake manifold

Need to know where spark plugs are located in order to change

Follow the spark plug wires down into the engine, a soft tug should pull the wire loose from the plug and then you will need a spark plug socket to change them.

I'm trying to locate the spark plugs in my suzuki 2008 sx4.

You remove the rectangular plastic cover on top of the engine(2 screws), under that is the plug wires and spark plugs. Pull wires straight up, remove plugs with proper spark plug socket, extension and ratchet, reverse to install.

Platinum plugs are not required but will allow longer change intervals. Check the gap but do not gap them, if they are not properly gapped. Bring them back and asked for new ones.

The metal's on the Platium plugs are harder then copper plugs and can break upon trying or break in your cylinder when in uses.

Good luck and hope this helps

How do i change out the spark plugs

I dont want to seem disrespectful at all, but if you were to crossthread the spark plugs when installing them it would be a very expensive mistake. but if you work on vehicles a little bit it isnt a bad job to do. I guess what I am trying to say if you havent ever done something like that just be careful.
