How often should the spark plugs be replaced in an eighth-generation Honda Accord?
1 Answers
Honda Accord eighth-generation spark plugs should be replaced every 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers, but if the spark plugs show no signs of burning out and the ignition is functioning normally, replacement may not be strictly necessary. The original spark plug model for the eighth-generation Accord 2.4 is: NGK ILZKR7B11, a specialized iridium-platinum type with a heat rating of 7, a gap of 1.1mm, and built-in resistor type. This is a vehicle-specific model, so it is not recommended to replace it with spark plugs of different materials or heat ratings to avoid increased fuel consumption or sluggish acceleration. Below is some information about spark plugs: 1. Spark plugs, commonly known as sparkers. The function of a spark plug is to discharge the high-voltage pulse electricity sent by the high-voltage wire (sparker wire), breaking down the air between the two electrodes of the spark plug to generate an electric spark, thereby igniting the air-fuel mixture in the cylinder. 2. Main types include: standard spark plugs, insulator-protruding spark plugs, electrode-type spark plugs, seat-type spark plugs, pole-type spark plugs, surface-gap spark plugs, etc. 3. Spark plugs work in conjunction with the ignition system and fuel supply system to enable the engine to perform work, and they largely determine the engine's performance together.
