What is the spark plug model for the Emgrand 1.3T?
2 Answers
The original spark plug model for the Geely New Emgrand 1.3T is Champion RER8WYB. The spark plug is a crucial component of the gasoline engine ignition system. It introduces high-voltage electricity into the combustion chamber and generates a spark by jumping across the electrode gap, thereby igniting the combustible air-fuel mixture in the cylinder. Main types of spark plugs include: standard spark plugs, projected insulator spark plugs, electrode spark plugs, seat spark plugs, pole spark plugs, and surface gap spark plugs. Replacement interval for spark plugs: Under normal maintenance conditions, they should be replaced after driving 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers. However, this may vary depending on the brand and engine, so it is recommended to follow the user manual. Reference standards for maintenance replacement: Platinum spark plugs should be replaced at 40,000 kilometers, ordinary nickel alloy spark plugs at 20,000 kilometers, and iridium spark plugs at 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers.
I've been driving the Emgrand 1.3T for two years and recently replaced the spark plugs. The OEM recommended model is NGK LZKAR7B8, specifically designed for its 1.3-liter turbocharged engine. After installing the new ones, the engine starts noticeably smoother, throttle response is quicker, and fuel consumption has decreased slightly. Spark plugs are the core components of the ignition system - when they age, they can affect power output and even cause stalling risks. It's recommended to inspect them every 30,000-40,000 km. DIY replacement isn't difficult, but you'll need a spark plug socket and torque wrench. By the way, regular replacement can also prevent other issues like ignition coil damage. Always choose genuine NGK products - counterfeit ones can easily cause engine malfunctions.
