  Q:

  How to correctly install Spark Plug(s) on Dodge Ram 3500?

  A:

  To begin, apply Mopar(R) Dielectric Grease silicone-based grease to the spark plug end of the ignition coil rubber boots and the spark plug tops before installing the spark plugs. Examine the Spark Plug Gap, then Adjust it Using a Gap Gauging Tool. Remove and Install the Spark Plug, Check Gap, then Repeat. Use a Deep, THIN-WALL 5/8" Spark Plug Socket for Removal and Install Because of Tight Clearances. A Conventional Deep, Thick-Wall Socket Will Not Fit. Be Sure to Start the Spark Plugs into the Cylinder Head Spark Plug Wells by Hand to Avoid Cross-Threading. Always Torque the Spark Plugs to the Specified Torque. Some Engines Use a Torque-Sensitive Spark Plug So Over-Torquing the Spark Plug Can Distort How the Spark Plug Fits, Thus Changing the Gap, or Crack the Ceramic Insulator Car on the Spark Plug. After the Spark Plugs Have Been Tightened to Specified Torque, Install the Ignition Coil(s). Afterwards, Reattach The Air Filter Tubing and Other Components to (the Top of) The Engine and To The Throttle Body.

  Q:

  How to access and remove the Spark Plug located beneath its ignition coil on Dodge Ram 3500?

  A:

  To reach each spark plug, the ignition coil needs to be removed since it is located underneath its designated ignition coil. Commence by detaching the air filter tube at the throttle body. Before removing the ignition coil, be sure to spray compressed air around the coil base at the cylinder head. Besides, spray some compressed air into the cylinder head opening, before removing the spark plug so nothing enters the combustion chamber. Utilize a high-quality socket fitted with a rubber or foam insert to extract the spark plug from the cylinder head. Furthermore, check the state of the O-ring on the ignition coil and replace it if necessary. Ultimately, check the state of the spark plug.
