What Are the Reasons for Spark Plugs Being Prone to Damage?
1 Answers
Spark plugs are prone to damage due to the following reasons: 1. Long-term accumulation of carbon deposits without cleaning; 2. Neglecting the cleanliness of the spark plug's exterior; 3. Over-tightening during installation. The functions of spark plugs include: 1. Introducing the high-voltage electricity generated by the ignition coil into the engine cylinder; 2. Generating sparks between the spark plug electrodes to ignite the air-fuel mixture, ensuring the engine operates normally. The steps for removing spark plugs are: 1. Clean any dust or debris around the spark plug area using compressed air or a soft tube to blow it away; 2. Ensure the engine is in a cold state before proceeding; 3. Immediately protect the spark plug hole after removal to prevent any debris or dust from entering the cylinder; 4. Avoid damaging the insulating ceramic body when using a wrench; 5. Do not bend or strike the center electrode when adjusting the spark plug gap.
