Broke Spark Coil
Broke Spark Coil
I am having some problems removing the spark plug in the last back row count from the left
1 2 3 (3 being th problem)
I tried to remove the stark but had some problem getting it pass the stuff that was above it. any way I started to push it back it since I was just going to get pro help on removing (since for some reason I can pull and phillps head srews on my max or the heads get damaged). it the gave me some difficulty going back in so I tried my best to lift to see the problem and the tip at the end seem to have come completely off. I tried to pull it out with my bird beak but no such luck.
ending up just putting back the stark and forcing it back down to make the connection. My baby gave a little problem starting but now seems to run just fine. Question: Is this going to be a major prob & how can I remove the stark with the tip in tack without remove the components above. remember I'm talking about the back row 3 one count from left (thats if your standing in front of car)...
Awaiting the guidance from the elders ...

Stark - stand for the coil pack the long stark with the cone on the end. and yes I'm speaking of cylinder #6, thats' where i'm having this problem. There is a device directly over the cylinder and that makes it very difficult to remove the coil. The tip on the coil is what broke/slipped off in the cylinder... please advise

Remove the stuff thats blocking the coil pack. It's just held on by two 10 or 12mm nuts.
To fix your broken coil apply crazy glue to the end of the coil pack and place it back on top of the part that is stuck on the spark plug. Wait about 10 minutes for the glue to fully cure and pull the coil pack back out, the rubber boot will be reattached to the end of the coil stalk.

Well I've done this a few times on my friends max. Usually I loosen the bolts on whatever Ie: Bracket is blocking the coil pack from going up. Then it comes up with no problems as there is interference with something don't remember what exactly.
You'll need a new coil pack as you broke off the tip of it and insulation will not be 100%.Basically spark jump might occur=hesitating problem sometimes due to the gap. best bet to remove it would be find some sticky tape and wrap it around a long flathead and dive for it.(Or some other form to get it, super long needle nose pliers) It should be relatively light to pull up.
