Spark Plug Replacement 07 Ford Edge 3.5L

In this video I go over the steps needed to replace the spark plugs on an 07 Ford Edge 3.5L. Other than removing the upper intake, which is shown in the video, the removal and installation of the spark plugs is very simple. Once the upper intake is removed the ignition coils will need to be removed. Once the ignition coils are removed then the spark plugs can be changed out. Once the spark plugs are replaced the rest is reverse procedure. Torque specs and spark plug gap not provided. Please refer to your repair manual for this information. Note: It is important to verify the spark plug gap, but in doing so use care not to damage the platinum tip. Usually, it's been my experience, the gap does require adjustment. Special notes: 1: At the 4:34 mark I show an electrical connector that plugs into the back of the intake where the pcv hose goes into the intake. This connector like any other electrical connector on this vehicle has a locking tang or a release clip that must be released before the connector is pulled off. 2: Use a "spark plug socket" when removing and installing spark plugs. This socket has a special rubber insert that helps to prevent damage to the spark plugs. Also, you saw me wratcheting the spark plug out like I lost all coordination with my left hand. This was sloppy and you should use care to keep the spark plug socket and extension centered and supported on the spark plug when removing and installing spark plugs. 3: At the 6:22 mark I go over removing the brake booster hose but do not show it. The spring hose clamp can be released by squeezing the ears of the hose clamp to gether. 4: At the 11:08 mark I mention just using a brake clean soaked rag, be sure it's a lint free rag, to clean the mating surface before installing the upper intake. If you cannot achieve a perfectly clean surface I would suggest using a green scotch brite scouring pad to lightly, very lightly, scuff up the surface. Wipe clean with a brake clean soaked "lint free" rag after scuffing. Here is a link to the scotch birte scouring pads I'm referring to: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Scotch-Br... 5: At around the 15:45 mark and possibly in other parts of the video I refer to the "snorkel" as an air duct. I use the two terms interchangeably. I'm referring to the tube between the air filter housing and the throttle body.
