  1. Using compressed air, blow out any dirt or contaminants from around top of spark plug.
  2. Check the condition of the coil rubber boot (4). To aid in coil installation, apply silicone based grease such as Mopar(R) Dielectric Grease # J8126688 into the spark plug end of the rubber boot (4) and to the top of the spark plug (5).
  3. Position the ignition coil assembly (1) into the cylinder head opening. Using a twisting action, push the ignition coil assembly onto the spark plug.
  4. Install coil mounting bolt. Tighten to 8 Nm (70 in.lbs).
  5. Connect the electrical connector to the ignition coil assembly (1) by snapping into position.
  6. Install the spark plug wires (3).
  7. If necessary, install the throttle body air intake tube, or intake air box.
Ignition Coil - Removal7 steps
ℹ NOTE
An ignition coil (2) with a spark plug wire (1) attached is used for two cylinders. The three coils fits into machined holes in the cylinder head for cylinders 1, 3, and 5. A mounting stud/nut secures each coil to the top of the intake manifold. The bottom of the coil is equipped with a rubber boot (4) to seal the spark plug (5) to the coil. Inside each rubber boot is a spring. The spring is used for a mechanical contact between the coil and the top of the spark plug. These rubber boots and springs are a permanent part of the coil and are not serviced separately. An O-ring is used to seal the coil at the opening into the cylinder head.
