2000 Cadillac Catera Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to replace the ignition coil on the RH side on 2000 Cadillac Catera?

  A: The replacement process of a rh side Ignition Coil begins with fuel system pressure relief. Counterhold the fuel hose connections before disconnecting to protect the Fuel Rail from damage. After this disconnect the fuel supply hose and the fuel return hose from the Intake Manifold. First disconnect the heater hoses from their retaining point before using a socket tool to remove the heater hose retainer bracket bolt from the intake plenum. Use j 43301 coil pack remover (J 43301) to disconnect the coil pack's electrical connector while you remove the coil pack retainer bolts, making sure to avoid overtightening. Use the j 43301 to thread into the coil pack opening before carefully lifting the coil pack through steady pressure. The coil pack seals and Spark Plug boots need examination for deterioration after coil pack removal since damaged components require replacement. Position the Spark Plug boots properly on the spark plugs before you carefully click the coil pack into place. Place the coil pack retainer bolts in position then torque them to 8 n.m (71 lb in). First connect the coil pack electrical connector and install the heater hose retainer bracket to the intake plenum using its bracket bolt which needs tightness at 8 n.m (71 lb in). Secure the heater hoses to their retainer bracket while holding the fuel hoses in position to prevent damaging the Fuel Rail. Install the fuel return hose to the Intake Manifold with 15 n.m (11 lb ft) torque settings and then mount the fuel supply hose using the identical torque force.
