13.5ft/lbs is just above hand tight. So hand tighten lightly till the ratchet stops, then turn about 1/4 turn clockwise. Don't use a crazy amount of pressure and you'll be fine. But realistically, torque wrenches are cheap. If you're doing maintenance, you should buy one
That’s it how you use that gap tool. Put the ground loop through the hole and bend back to open the gap. The way you are bending with the gauge is mashing against the electrode - no good.
Wow, don't prey on the spark plug with that round tool like that. It will damage the tip of the plug! See other videos on how the re-gap a plug properly. These plugs go for about $16 each these days.
Thank you for this guide. I just finished installing mine.
can you use a 6 inch extension in place of a 10 when none are available locally?
Great video. Very detailed.
Glad it was helpful!
Really good job on vid!
Thank you sir. Glad you enjoyed it.
How do you know you've tighten at the right pressure without over cranking and not having a pressure reader on your wrench?

That's NOT how you use the gap tool. I know that is what you meant. Good catch!
The tool is made for it and its the cheapest way. I used it couple of times and I will continuously to use it.
Thanks for the video!

you don’t need to gap NGKs, in fact you are not supposed to
Did you just tap an iridium plug ?
And he crushed the electrode opening the gap 😢
you meant K24A2 engine
Dealer was about to charge me $700 to change a spark plug 😮 😝
Oh dude what a rip off. STEALERSHIP. Cost me less then 20 dollars.
