If there is a problem with the spark plug, the engine malfunction light will come on. Criteria for judging spark plug damage: Damaged spark plugs may exhibit the following symptoms: difficulty starting, reduced power, excessive exhaust emissions, and increased fuel consumption. Components of a spark plug: A spark plug mainly consists of a terminal nut, insulator, terminal stud, center electrode, side electrode, and shell. Spark plug replacement interval: Under normal maintenance conditions, spark plugs should be replaced after driving 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers. However, this may vary depending on the brand and engine type, so it is recommended to follow the user manual. The following standards can be used as a reference 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.
