Maxwell Ford invites you to discover what the malfunctioning spark plug symptoms are.
Perhaps the most noticeable sign of bad spark plug wires is your car just feels a little ‘off.’ It would probably start slowly with lower gas mileage but could progress all the way to a lack of acceleration. Bad spark plugs or spark plug misfires can also lead to difficulty starting the engine, a rough idle, and low power. What starts as only a minor inconvenience could develop into a safety hazard if not repaired in an appropriate manner. Whether you are already experiencing issues or just want to change them before they happen, let us take care of it. Our experienced technicians will check out your car and let you know the best fix to keep your car on the road.
A spark plug is a part that delivers a spark of electricity to ignite the fuel and air mixture in a standard gasoline engine. An engine cannot start or run without spark plugs. We make sure to use the correct spark plug gap, so the engine runs at its best. A gapping tool makes an exact measurement to make sure the correct spark plug gap is available. This is only applicable on gas engines because diesel engines don’t use spark plugs. Instead of spark plugs, diesel engines have a separate system that has glow plugs.
The greatest benefit of new spark plugs is that your car should run smoother, provide better fuel efficiency, and may reduce the pollution from the car. The expense to change your spark plugs is reasonable, too. While some folk have a view on which brand has the best spark plugs, we have the plugs that the original manufacturer used. So, come on in and replace those faulty spark plugs and see how much you’ve been missing.
How Soon Should I Change Plugs, well the answer is complicated. Like many products, there are spark plugs that may only last about a year or spark plugs that can last many years. While it can change depending on your driving behavior, the car will have a unique replacement plan for the plugs. So, if your vehicle is showing symptoms of bad plugs, you can bring it to us for a complete inspection. Our knowledgeable automotive technicians will check the plugs and coils for problems or even simple misfires during normal operation and get you out on the road as soon as possible.
