Nissan Repair: Spark Plugs, intake runners, tight fit


Question
Where are the plugs located on a 2001 Nissan Max V6

Answer
Chris,

The front valve cover plate comes off and the plugs are under the coils.  The rear plugs are accessed through the gaps between the intake runners.  A tight fit to get the coil pack off to get the the plug.  You can do it yourself but you will need a long extension or two to get to the plug and a ten millimeter to get the coil pack off.  You might have a late 2001 and have a plastic engine cover that has to be removed first.
