A few days ago we had a look at this Kia Sedona Min Van with a bad misfire and diagnosed it as having bad coils and needing new spark plugs, spark plug wires and ignition coils. So here we go! Let's remove the upper intake and get this job done!!

bet u aint finding oem for the 2002 jeep
On that KIA the intake gasket to hold it in place is where four drops of super glue comes in handy… lmbo
Okay for the doing a compression test for a 2014 Kia Sedona what should be the PSI
Spark plug firing order for a 2014 Kia Sedona
Great video! enough shown to know what to take off and what not. Dont need to see you unscrew every bolt, I know how to do that. lefty loosey righty tighty unless reverse threads. hahaha
Please don’t edit out you temper tantrums!
I understand being upset about a commenter but ranting while you're making a tutorial video is unprofessional. I have a vlog account as well about body mods and I keep it to the material not the rude people or people that expect nonhuman miracles doing videos. I wouldn't say you are a bad mechanic because I had a hard time focusing on the car with the rant but youtube is probably not your thing.
good job my friend ,very helpful do more videos like this
Pure insanity.
You forgot to blow out the front spark plug holes!
You didn't have to remove the bracket in back of the manifold only the 14 mm. Bolt. Must be your first time!
Thank you, I have to do this tommorrow so I better budget 5 hours! Appreciate your channel, knowledge and humor.
While you had it tore down this far it would have been a good time to do the valve cover gaskets.
The lift bracket bolts are much easier to get to from under the car!
When you take any clamp off any hose on a kia make sure you put the clamp back the way it came off or it will leak..I'm a kia tech and it is so annoying
What was the torque specs for the intake
Will this fix a P0430 for this vehicle?
The owner should of had new valve cover/spark plug cover gaskets done right away,,,Great job Eric as always…I love your channel as i have learned a lot from you and your personality rocks.
I think the best way to fix that sort of car is to call the insurance company when it accidentally catches on fire and burns until even the front tires melt.
Kia a Hyundai with the bolts tightened.
have a friend want to tune up 2009 Sedona. I preferred him to you, Eric
I have a 2012 Sedona that I need to change the plugs. What a nightmare. Is there any easier access? Any clearance from the bottom of the engine? Hey, perhaps you just spoke the key to doing that job easier. what if you raised that engine from the back or rolled it forward? Is it possible?
I feel your pain but its really funny how some people are
I think the 3.8 Sedona is a little easier bit still a big job. Still have to take the intake off.
Just FYI, Milwaukee and Ryobi are now ChiCom tool companies.
Those are the types of cars you don't buy lol crazy place to change spark plugs
Use nickel type anti seize ….not copper type?
im getting ready to tackle this job on a 05 hyundai xg350 and its got the same motor im gonna just change the plenum gasket because im already there. good video my friend.
Thanks
Love your channel!!
LOL You Must show Every busting of the knuckles
I just bought a 2005 Kia Sedona with the 3.5 I take it that there are only 3 coils and 3 spark plug wires??? "Front coils also fire the rear plugs?? I will be doing this job soon.
I'm going nuts seeing every bolt.
Still subscribed tho.
Not boring Mr owe just very interesting
Eric means doctor of cars
Now wow Mr owe you're the best man. Mr cucumber wowowo.
I just replaced the spark plugs and coils in a 2008 Santa Fe 3.3 with 135K on the clock and original plugs today and it took 2.5 hours, I used NGK plugs and OEM coils, I wasn't chancing using aftermarket that could die in a month after going through what it takes to get to them.
Easy enough to change the front ones but getting to the back ones are a pain in the ass. Lucky for me Hyundai was kind enough to leave a bunch of bolts out/loose/stripped out and hoses disconnected when they had worked on the SUV before when my father in law owned it, What a bunch of hacks. This is why I have gone to working on them myself, it's a shame when a dealership mechanic doesn't give a crap enough to do it right.
I have worked commercial HVAC for over 30 years and seen my fair share of hacks in my industry as well, I guess there are just people that don't care in every job type out there. Seems like there are very few out there anymore that really take pride in their work.
I became a licensed heavy duty mechanic in 1974, and if the work was as cramped and inaccessible as you do, l wouldn’t have lasted long enough to have gotten my diploma.🇨🇦
Hmmm….good to see the whole thing from beginning to end….more real experience in car repairs….
Hmmm….dont ever buy a car that hard to work on….bring back the old days ….a slant 6 …lasts forever with easy maintanance….
"Well, let's see if we can't ruin their day."
Priceless….
Old video but I'm a technician at a kia dealership and I couldn't help but laugh at the struggle of that bolt behind the intake. I know how you felt brother. That bolt is a mother lover for sure
I’m flag I’m not alone in being flustered.
Just needed Mrs. O to talk ya through it.
thank you for the video and man your a good mechanic and a funny as hell
what year is this kia sedona ?
Thank you so much for this video! It's great to volunteer to help tune up my mom's van, but what a pain!!! Thanks again
Too late…I looked it up…I'm jealous now, how much is a name change, how does Eric Garcia sound, better than Eric Estrada?
