1 Answers
Ford Kuga's spark plugs have a service life of no more than 30,000 kilometers, and it is generally recommended to replace the spark plugs every two years or 30,000 kilometers. Under normal maintenance conditions, car spark plugs should be replaced after traveling 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers, but this may vary depending on the brand and engine. It is recommended to follow the owner's manual. The following standards can be referenced for maintenance and 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. Steps for replacing spark plugs: Open the hood, lift the plastic cover of the engine, remove the high-voltage ignition wires, and mark the position of each cylinder to avoid confusion. Use a spark plug socket to remove the spark plugs one by one. When removing them, check for any external debris such as leaves or dust and ensure they are cleaned thoroughly. Place the new spark plugs into the spark plug holes, hand-tighten them a few turns, and then use the socket to tighten them further. Install the removed high-voltage ignition wires in the firing order and secure the cover.
