  • In this video I replace the spark plugs in my 1989 Chevrolet K1500. The previous owner said that they had never been replaced while he owned it. He purchased it around 2005. So they have been installed for at least 18 years. I wouldn't be surprised if they have been in for over 20 years.

    Looking good! 3 weeks ago on my 1989 GMC I had my exhaust manifold bolts let go due to rust & possible previous owner mishaps. I had to use a helicoil on the passenger side cylinder closest to the radiator with new gaskets. It was at least a fun project!

    Nice truck. Looks clean. My Dad said he was going to give me his 1990 2500 because he had too many cars. So I put in a new battery, did a tune up, changed the oil, timing chain & gears, fuel filter, rebuilt the throttle body, put in new injectors, detailed it and had it running like a sewing machine.
    After all that He decided he wanted to sell it to me instead 😂

      That's cold. You did all the work...But, they are still great trucks. Especially the 2500s!

    I used the platinum tip plugs with better results than with stock AC plugs. You should try them.

    My Dude. This was such a great video - camera angles, commentary, background music, editing.
    Makes me motivated to do the plugs on my 89’ also!

      Thanks man! They were a pain. I did the wires and distributor cap a few days later. Good luck with yours.

      @@socalinlove you can try spraying them every day for a week with WD-40 but depending on how seized they are it might not help. I would use a induction bolt heater tool, heat really does work.
