How often should the Ford EcoSport's spark plugs be replaced?

[DeJayla]

Ford EcoSport's spark plugs have a service life of no more than 30,000 kilometers. Generally, it is recommended to replace the spark plugs every two years or 30,000 kilometers. Under normal maintenance conditions, car 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 is advisable 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 and lift the engine's plastic cover. Remove the high-voltage ignition wires, marking each cylinder's position to avoid confusion. Use a spark plug socket to remove the spark plugs one by one. While removing them, check for any external debris like leaves or dust and ensure they are thoroughly cleaned. 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. Reinstall the high-voltage ignition wires in the firing order and secure the cover.
