How to replace spark plugs on a 2012 Mazda 3 i Touring (2.0L G) in under five minutes. *Recommendations (contradict some things in the original clip): DO NOT use a power tool to screw in the plugs, even though it adds speed.*
*DO NOT use anti-seize on NGK plugs. They already have a trivalent coating for easy removal*

Manufacturer OEM gap is .052" according to other sites I read, these are .044" and most part stores claim compatibility, no problems so far with them, mileage same or better than with old plugs.
