Naperville Spark Plug Replacement

Naperville Spark Plug Replacement | Auto Spark Plug Repair

Spark plugs are crucial components of the ignition system in any vehicle. They ignite the air and gasoline within your engine which powers your engine and propels the vehicle forward. The spark plug pulls in high voltage current from the vehicle’s ignition coil. It then creates a spark at the perfect moment during the engine’s combustion cycle.

This helps create the right balance of fuel economy, power, and low emissions. But with regular use and over time, the spark plug electrode eventually wears out which can potentially result in performance issues.

When Should You Replace Spark Plugs?

We at Nelson’s Auto Repair recommend that spark plug replacement is something  which should be done as part of your regular vehicle maintenance and you can find these details in the vehicle owner’s manual. Some cars need spark plug replacement at 30k, 60k and 100k miles. But there are times when the spark plug could fail well before the scheduled maintenance date, but this doesn’t happen too often.

Problems That Can Arise If You Don’t Replace Spark Plugs

Avoiding spark plug replacement can give rise to several problems such as:

• Difficulty with starting the car.
• Check engine light comes on due to a misfire code.
• Check engine light flashes during acceleration for a misfire, and this can cause damage to your engine
• Reduced engine power and/or fuel economy
• Unexplained engine vibration
• Rough idle
• Failed State emission testing

Even if it is found that only one of the spark plugs is faulty, it is necessary to replace them in sets. We carry different types of spark plugs and will make sure that the right ones are used in the replacement.
