Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the engine opening size before installation and compare it to the plug’s nominal diameter and maximum expansion. Clean the sealing surface thoroughly so the plug seats evenly, and inspect the surrounding area for wear, corrosion, or residue that could affect the seal. Verify vehicle application by year and model before ordering.
