REPLACING SPARK PLUGS
Platinum-tipped spark plugs

It is not necessary to replace platinum-tipped

spark plugs as frequently as conventional type

spark plugs because they last much longer. Fol-

low the maintenance log shown in the “NISSAN

Service and Maintenance Guide”. Do not service

platinum-tipped spark plugs by cleaning or re-

gapping.

Always replace spark plugs with rec-

ommended or equivalent ones.

WARNING

Be sure the engine and ignition switch are

off and that the parking brake is engaged

securely.

CAUTION

Be sure to use the correct socket to re-

move the spark plugs. An incorrect socket

can damage the spark plugs.

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Remove the engine cover.
3. Remove the coil pack bolt.
4. Remove the coil pack/spark plug boot from

the spark plug.

5. Remove the spark plugs with a spark plug

socket.
The plug socket has a rubber seal that holds

the spark plug so it does not fall when it is

pulled out. Make sure each spark plug is

snugly fitted into the spark plug socket.
