What are the effects of spark plug leakage?
1 Answers
The effects of spark plug leakage include: 1. Engine power loss; 2. Unstable idle speed; 3. Engine stalling at high speeds; 4. Increased fuel consumption; 5. Engine failure to start; 6. Spark plug malfunction; 7. Engine damage. Other common spark plug faults include: 1. Spark plug leakage; 2. Black deposits on the spark plug electrodes; 3. Fractured insulator tip; 4. Oil fouling on the spark plug; 5. Spark plug erosion; 6. Excessive spark plug gap. The function of the spark plug is to discharge the high-voltage pulse sent by the high-voltage wire, breaking down the air between the two electrodes to generate an electric spark, thereby igniting the air-fuel mixture in the cylinder.
