In this video, we're going to show how to replace a spark plug on the 1998 Honda Civic with the 1.6 liter 4-cylinder engine and it's the same part and process on these vehicles from 1992 to 2000. The items you'll need for this is new spark plugs from 1AAuto.com, 5/8 inch spark plug socket and racket with an extension and a gap tool. Start off by disconnecting a spark plug wire and using a 5/8 inch spark plug socket, twist out that spark plug. If you're using a spark plug socket, the spark plug will come right up and out with the socket, otherwise you may need a magnet to pull it out.
SUp front is the old spark plug, behind it is the new one from 1A Auto, you can see that they're identical and they are going to mount exactly the same. Bring your new spark plug in, you want to make sure the gap's right so using a gap tool you want to pry that to the right size and for this vehicle it's supposed to be .044. Put the spark plug into the socket and lower down into place and just twist in and tighten it. In general, you want to torque spark plugs to about 20 to 25 per pounds. Once you have it tightened up then replace the wire and repeat for the other three.
