If your car is having trouble starting, the battery might not be the only issue. Worn or faulty spark plugs could be the real culprit. Though small, spark plugs play a vital role in your vehicle’s performance and overall efficiency.
What Do Spark Plugs Do?
Spark plugs are responsible for igniting the air fuel mixture in your engine’s combustion chamber. This ignition process generates the power needed to start and run your vehicle. Without properly functioning spark plugs, your engine may struggle to start, run poorly, or lose fuel efficiency.
What Causes Spark Plugs to Go Bad?
Over time, spark plugs wear out due to heat, pressure, and carbon buildup. Some key reasons spark plugs fail include:
Excessive heat and pressure breaking down the electrode tip
Carbon, oil, and fuel residue buildup affecting performance
Use of low quality spark plugs that wear out faster
Signs You Need New Spark Plugs
Difficulty starting the engine
Rough idling or misfiring
Reduced fuel efficiency
Poor acceleration or sluggish performance
Check engine light activation
If you notice any of these symptoms, replacing your spark plugs can restore engine performance, improve fuel efficiency, and ensure a smooth ride.
For optimal results, consider replacing your air filter as well. A clean air filter helps maintain proper airflow to the engine, enhancing combustion efficiency and extending the life of your spark plugs.
