How often should the JADE spark plugs be replaced?
2 Answers
JADE spark plugs should be replaced every 40,000 kilometers. The replacement method is as follows: 1. In a cold state, open the engine compartment cover to determine the installation position of the spark plugs. Before replacing the spark plugs, ensure that the engine compartment cover bracket is securely fixed. Remove the engine decorative panel and the fixing screws on the ignition coil; 2. Disconnect the connector on the ignition coil, pull out all the ignition coils, and use a special spark plug removal tool to remove all the spark plugs from the cylinder head; 3. Install the new spark plugs into the cylinder head and tighten them to the specified torque. JADE is a compact car under Honda, with body dimensions of 4667mm in length, 1775mm in width, 1530mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2760mm.
I've been driving a Honda Jade for several years, and timely replacement of spark plugs can save a lot of trouble. Generally speaking, they should be considered for replacement every 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. I usually change them around 70,000 kilometers myself, and it feels like the car has renewed power with improved fuel efficiency. Worn-out spark plugs lead to lower ignition efficiency, easy carbon buildup, engine shaking, and in severe cases, can affect engine lifespan. I checked the manual, and Honda officially recommends inspection at 60,000 kilometers, replacing as needed. If you often drive in congested city traffic, you might need to replace them earlier, while highway driving can extend their life. Don't wait for major issues—have the mechanic check them during routine maintenance. A good set of spark plugs costs a few hundred bucks, avoiding costly engine repairs. Overall, considering driving habits and road conditions, 70,000 kilometers is a safe benchmark.
