Help
 
Hi hope someone can help.
I'm trying to replace the spark-plugs on my 2000 accord v6 and one of the ignition coil is stock won't come out. What can I do to remove it. Thanks

If this is Coil-over-Plug, have you removed the bolt holding the COP down?

It may take a bit of force to separate the COP from the plug.

good luck

The coil head broke it was hard to remove the rest but I was able to do it. Thanks for your respond

I'd put a bit of dielectric grease there so it doesn't stick next time.

Hmmm, two comments:
  1. The oil pressure light has no bearing on the no-start issue; when the engine starts, the light will (or at least should) go out.
  2. Sounds like you have an electrical issue; I'd start by going over everything you touched during your recent maintenance activities.

Oil pressure light is usually a faulty oil pressure switch.

Regarding starting, do the Check Engine, Alt, Oil Pressure lights come on when keyswitch is turned to On?

good luck

Are you suggesting that cranking the engine with the starter alone can generate enough oil pressure to extinguish the oil pressure light?

I wasn't sure that oil pressure light and no-start were simultaneous events.

Yes, prolonged starting revs might cause oil pressure light to go off. Switch closes at only a few psi of pressure. I don't know this for certain. It may that in Start postion, oil light is held on?

good luck
