2000 Rodeo 2.2L Spark Plug Change
Does anyone know how to change the plugs on a 2000 Rodeo with the 2.2L? I found the ignition wires going into the top of the engine underneath a black cover. But when I try to life the boots, they are brought back down with a spring action. A broke one of the 90 degree boots as well trying to pry it up.
I lifted the boot up with a screwdriver to see what was underneath. Didn't look like spark plugs. The Haynes manual is useless in this matter. Here are some pictures of my engine and where I was working: http://home.comcast.net/~jolopez1/Isuzu/RodeoView1.JPG http://home.comcast.net/~jolopez1/Isuzu/RodeoView2.JPG Thanks in advance! JL

Much like the 3.2L, the 2.2L spark plugs are WAY down in there due to the head design of these engines. The spark plug "boot" is usually a long tube, with spring style connector that snaps over the top conductor of the spark plug. Try to work'em with a twisting motion to break them free. You may wind up having to dig them out with a set of picks or whatever you can get in there. Put a dab of silicone grease on them so next time they'll pull right out. Be sure to use quality plugs too. Try to use whatever came with it OEM.
