Group 1 Ford of El Paso welcomes you to discover what the symptoms of faulty spark plug wires are.
Perhaps the most noticeable sign of faulty spark plugs is that your car just feels not quite right. It would probably start slowly with reduced gas mileage but could progress all the way to no acceleration. Faulty spark plugs or spark plug misfires can also cause problems starting the engine, a rough idle once started, and even low power. What starts as a minor inconvenience could become a safety issue if not sorted in a timely manner. Regardless if you are currently having problems or just want to replace your spark plugs before they happen, let us take a look. Our highly-trained technicians will check out your vehicle and let you know the best course of action to keep your vehicle on the road.
A spark plug is a part of the standard gasoline engine that delivers electricity to ignite the fuel. Without spark plugs, a gasoline engine cannot run or start. To ensure the engine performs its absolute best, we use the correct spark plug gap. A gapping tool is used to make an exact measurement to make sure the correct spark plug gap is available. This is only applicable to gasoline engines because there’s no such thing as diesel engine spark plugs. Diesel engines use glow plugs instead of spark plugs.
The biggest benefit of new spark plugs is your engine will probably run more efficiently, provide you with better fuel economy, and may even reduce the pollution from your car. It is a reasonable price to replace the spark plugs, as well. While everyone has a thought on the best spark plugs, we have the spark plugs that the manufacturer originally installed in the vehicle. So, bring your vehicle in and change out those fouled plugs and see how much power you’ve been missing.
How Often To Replace The Spark Plugs, well it’s complex. Like many products, there will be plugs that may only last a year or plugs that can remain functional for many years. While it will change depending on your driving habits, the car will have a unique replacement plan for the spark plugs. So, if your car is having symptoms of bad spark plugs, you can bring it to us for a comprehensive examination. Our knowledgeable techs will check the plugs and coils for wear and get you back on the road as soon as possible.
