    Do one plug at a time. Remove spark plug boot from the first plug, remove plug, check spark plug gap, apply pea-size drop of antiseize compound on lower threads, carefully reinstall plug by hand, and torque to specs. Be sure to do this when the engine is "stone cold," to prevent stripping the aluminum head. Next, install a new plug wire on the plug you just installed and to the corresponding post on the coil. Follow this procedure, in turn, on each remaining plug. The link below may help you:

    Only use ACDelco plugs.
