Grab a ratchet strap, loop it under the front neck of the intake manifoold, place your ratchet strap hooks in your hood latch-catch and watch that plenum *MAGICALLY raise up and outta your way, as you simply raise the hood! You're welcome ;-) .

Good job on the tutorial man. Only one correction, that last bolt underneath the intake you referred to as being 19mm, is actually an 18mm. Just fyi man, keep up the nice work!

I've seen that copper plugs are better performance but wear faster, but are the way to go. Upon doing more research I've learned that I should NOT use copper with a car that uses coil packs and not a distributor cap, as they'll wear out even faster and aren't too great for that. My father swears by them but on his older vehicles. Cadillac forums says use double plat... Do you have any preference on plugs, and if it's ok to go with copper on this vehicle despite wearing down? I have no issues changing out spark plugs more often if it gives me slightly better performance. I ask just to be sure the wear down won't be catastrophic with coil packs instead of a distributor. Thanks!

Sorry dude. If you shimmy that plenum back and forth without checking on the gaskets you just unsealed, you are asking for trouble. Would never change the plugs on Cadillac like this.

I changed the plugs on my 2.8L yesterday. 2 boots (14.99each) broke off in the hole so i recommend putting a little grease on the new ones. Vacuum hoses are dry rotted, be careful with those. To get the bold all the way on the back of the plenum, i just undid 3 bolts of that little black plastic under the windshiekd whiper. It gave me enough room to put a socket in

I know this is probably a long shot because this video is so old, but I'm going to reach out anyway. I was wondering if you had information regarding the Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor on the 2006 Cadillac STS, V6 3.6L Engine. I am having the hardest time locating it as I am in need of either cleaning it or changing it. Any help would be awesome!
