1 Answers
Generally, new spark plugs come with a warranty of one year or 10,000 kilometers. Spark Plug Replacement Interval: Under normal maintenance conditions, spark plugs should be replaced after driving 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers. However, this may vary depending on the brand and engine type, so it's recommended to follow the user manual. You can refer to the following standards for maintenance replacement: Platinum spark plugs should be replaced at 40,000 kilometers, ordinary nickel alloy spark plugs at 20,000 kilometers, and iridium spark plugs at 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. Criteria for Determining Spark Plug Damage: Damaged spark plugs may exhibit the following symptoms: difficulty starting the engine, reduced power, excessive exhaust emissions, and increased fuel consumption. Steps for Replacing Spark Plugs: Open the engine hood, lift the plastic cover of the engine, and remove the high-voltage wires. Mark each cylinder's position to avoid confusion. Use a spark plug socket to remove the spark plugs one by one. During removal, check for any external debris like leaves or dust and ensure they are thoroughly cleaned. Place the new spark plug into the spark plug hole, hand-tighten it a few turns, and then use the socket to tighten it further. Reinstall the high-voltage wires in the correct firing order and secure the cover.
