According to the manufacturer's regulations, if you want to enjoy warranty services, you must have the car serviced at a 4S dealership during the warranty period. Here are some relevant details about 4S dealership warranties: 1. After the vehicle exceeds the warranty period, the owner does not need to go to a 4S dealership for repairs. Under normal circumstances, the car's warranty policy is usually 2 years or 60,000 kilometers, with some models having slightly longer warranty periods, but generally not exceeding 5 years or 100,000 kilometers. Due to the high maintenance costs at 4S dealerships and concerns about roadside shops engaging in fraudulent practices, a large number of chain quick-service shops have emerged to bridge the gap between 4S dealerships and roadside shops. 2. Regular maintenance shops have relatively advanced equipment, and there is no problem with daily vehicle maintenance. One of the main advantages of 4S dealerships is that they can provide original parts.

Where is the spark plug located on the Baojun 730?

Location of the spark plug on the Baojun 730: The spark plug is installed on the side or top of the engine. In earlier models, spark plugs were connected to the distributor via ignition cables. However, over the past decade, most car engines have been updated to feature direct connections between the ignition coil and the spark plug. How spark plugs work: The spark plug's ground electrode is connected to the metal shell, which is threaded into the engine block via the cylinder head. The insulator primarily serves to isolate the metal shell from the central electrode. The terminal nut is the part of the spark plug that contacts the high-voltage coil. When current passes through the terminal nut and the central electrode, it ionizes the medium between the central electrode and the ground electrode, generating a spark that ignites the air-fuel mixture in the cylinder.
