Mercedes-Benz of Boerne welcomes you to discover what the signs of defective spark plugs are.
The most apparent symptom of bad spark plug wires is that your car just feels not quite normal. It may start slowly with reduced gas mileage but could end up with a lack of acceleration. Bad spark plugs or spark plug misfires will also cause problems starting your engine, a rough idle once started, and loss of power. What starts as only a minor inconvenience could develop into a safety concern. Whether you are currently experiencing issues or just want to change the spark plug wires before they happen, let us take care of it. Our highly-trained technicians will inspect your vehicle and provide you with options for the best fix to keep you on the road.
The spark plug is a part that delivers electricity to ignite the fuel and air mixture in the standard internal combustion engine. An engine can’t run or start without spark plugs. To ensure the engine performs its best, we use the right spark plug gap. A gapping tool is used to make a precise measurement to ensure the spark plug gap is correct. This is only applicable on gas engines because diesel engines don’t use spark plugs. Instead of spark plugs, diesel engines use glow plugs.
The greatest benefit of new spark plugs is that the vehicle will probably run smoother, give improved fuel efficiency, and may even reduce the pollution level of the car. It is a very reasonable price to replace your spark plugs, too. While everyone has an opinion on the best spark plugs, we have the spark plugs that the manufacturer used. So, bring your vehicle in and swap those faulty plugs and see what you’ve been missing.
How Often To Change The Plugs On My Car, well the answer is complex. Like many consumer products, there will be spark plugs that might last a year or plugs that can remain functional for several years. While it will change based on your driving habits, your car will have a unique replacement plan for the spark plugs. So, if your vehicle is having symptoms of faulty spark plugs, bring it to us for a thorough examination. Our knowledgeable automotive techs will check the plugs and coils for problems or even misfires during operation and provide you with options to get you out on the road quickly.
