Allow me to qualify my statement, that particular Aveo is cursed. It currently has 150,000 kms (93,000 miles) and it’s leaking from the valve cover, oil pan, rear main seal and water pump. Every steering and suspension component in the front and rear, alternator, starter, throttle body and countless other parts have already been replaced, and it’s rusting everywhere.
@@416diy At 100,00km it shouldve had its timing belt changed. When you change the timing belt on an aveo you should be changing the water pump as well. Valve cover is normal. That gasket needs to be changed fairly often. Super easy to change it though. The rust and gaskets cant be helped, its a $20k korean econo car.
Lo S-c changing TB is not likely to fix steering wheel shake. Have your wheels balanced, and inspect all your front end steering components, as well as your engine/tranny mounts.
What would you estimate the the torque value (ft lbs) from your 1/2-2/3 rotation? I have a 2011 and I'm a bit nervous about working with an Al head. Thanks! Robert Kansas City, MO.
In this video we did, one of the ends had degraded where it meets the plug and was causing a misfire. Safer to replace them when you do the spark plugs.
Ahmet Furkan Özdener I always use NGK iridium. 1 - they give me zero issues, 2 - pre-gapped, 3 - they last so damn long. I also find the GM/AC Delco aren’t as widely available, as I tend to order online mostly.
Lo S-c that’s what I’d do. The gasket is rubber, so there’s no mess to clean up after you remove it, and it only costs a few bucks. Why was it oily though, are you using an oiled air filter?
I dunno, I have a 2008 Aveo that was very well taken care of by its previous owner and it's been extremely good to me. I absolutely love the car, I sold it but only because I need AWD for where I live (didn't consider when I bought the Aveo that it wouldn't cut it in the winter).
He says this car is cursed. Not so,
Mine has 200,000 miles on it still running fine you just have to keep up with the maintenance

Many thanks.
Do the wires have to be replaced too? At the same time when you replace the spark plugs?
Also would it stop the light shake in steering wheel

Mines starts then when i put it in drive it sputters and dies then start again in 5 mins but still sputters
what is the type of plug. number .oem.?
Did you have to disconnect the battery?
Not required

Hey Robert the standard usually ranges from 15-20 ft pounds of torq, you could always search your specific specs online. Hope that helps
Do I need to use di-electric grease for the leads?
Little bit never hurts.
What brand are the wires?
NGK
Do you have to replace the wire set ?

Does it start if you mixed them up?sparkplug wire i mean
Elmer Eyao probably, but I don’t recommend it.
Yes it will but don't do it. I found my machines messed up. I reconnect it ryt way. I did 350km with miss connection.
Lucky I found the problem
What would be the order I think I got my plugs mixed up
Justin 7189 from passenger side to driver side it’s 1-2-3-4
Hello. Which spark plug brand do you recommend? Do NGK or GM give the same performance?
Ahmet Furkan Özdener I always use NGK iridium. 1 - they give me zero issues, 2 - pre-gapped, 3 - they last so damn long. I also find the GM/AC Delco aren’t as widely available, as I tend to order online mostly.
@@416diy Thank you for the advice
What if oil is on the gasket area? Just clean up and replace
Lo S-c that’s what I’d do. The gasket is rubber, so there’s no mess to clean up after you remove it, and it only costs a few bucks. Why was it oily though, are you using an oiled air filter?
Worst car I ever owned
Sierra doesn’t get much worse
