2006 Ford Escape Spark Plug Parts Q&A

• Q: How to service and repair spark plugs on 2006 Ford Escape?

  A: The ground cable of the battery must be disconnected before servicing the spark plugs. Service and repairs for the right-hand side spark plugs require upper intake manifold removal to gain access. You need to detach ignition coil electrical connectors before taking out the bolts which also remove the ignition coils. Apply compressed air to remove all foreign debris from the spark plug well before commencing with the plug removal process. The inspection process of spark plugs should include gap adjustment which must be followed by proper tightening to 15 Nm (11 lb-ft) torque value. The ignition coil boots need a minimal amount of dielectric grease applied inside before reinstallation as a new step. Installation of ignition coils and bolts follows with similar torque specifications at 15 Nm (11 lb-ft). Reinstall the upper intake manifold by its right-hand side while completing the process by reattaching the battery ground cable.
