      The most important thing about changing spark plugs

      The operation of the engine in a car is aimed at burning the combustible mixture and generating energy to start all systems. The internal combustion system requires the use of a spark plug, which takes on the main load, so timely maintenance is indispensable. Candles are periodically cleaned, checked and replaced with new ones due to unsuitability. Modern engines are covered with a plastic baffle so inexperienced drivers can’t handle minor repairs, but the task isn’t really that difficult. It is possible to replace the spark plugs on your own, but in some cases you can contact the specialists of the Avtopark-Service company for a comprehensive repair and maintenance of the car.

      Choice of spark plugs

      Replacing a spark plug, the price of which is available in specialized car services, begins with the selection of a new product that fully complies with the technical requirements of an internal combustion engine. It is necessary to take into account the manufacturer, product brand, performance and total resource, specifying these indicators with the seller. If you buy spark plugs in an unverified place, you may be faced with buying a faulty product, so it’s not worth the risk.

      Beginners need to focus on two main parameters when choosing – heat number and geometric shape. The shape should not differ from the geometric parameters of the old product, since the mismatch in size creates difficulties in subsequent installation. A very long candle is also dangerous for the engine, so the exact geometric dimensions – this is a convenient use of all the details.

      The heating number determines the rate of overheating of the part, so you need to study the general criteria prescribed in the car’s service book in advance.

      A standard spark plug that fits most – this is a product with a ceramic body, a metal glass with a thread, as well as two petals at the bottom. But each option is individual and requires a careful approach when studying.

      Compliance with safety regulations

      The correct replacement of spark plugs does not have special safety requirements, but work must be done with a cold engine to avoid burns. The engine operates in high temperature conditions, so you must first wait a few hours after the end of the movement to cool the system.

      Steps of work

      At Avtopark-Service at Kiev, Koltsevaya 22, all work is carried out by professionals, while observing certain stages and general rules to form the overall quality and accuracy of events.

      Preparatory work

      The preparatory work includes the selection of candles, the preparation of tools: a car key with a special nozzle and rags for neat work without excess dirt. Additionally, technical alcohol can be used.

      Debris, dirt and dust can be removed using compressed air to prevent foreign matter from entering the cylinder. For more serious contamination, a rag soaked in technical alcohol is suitable.

      Dismantling old candles

      Car spark plugs are connected to the ignition distribution box as well as wiring, so everything needs to be disconnected to completely free the parts. After disconnecting all wiring using a car key with the appropriate nozzle, unscrew the parts counterclockwise. If the part is stuck, then additional efforts may be required to complete the work.

      It is necessary to check the electrodes in the candles, since the space can become clogged with dirt, which disrupts the overall performance. If there is a problem with the rings, then this indicates that excess oil has got on the candle, and only auto mechanics can fix the problem.

      If there are no extraneous problems, you can start installing a new candle.

      Installing new candles

      Before installation, you need to compare the old and new candles for their maximum similarity, after which you can screw the serviceable elements into the intended place. The thread is covered with a small amount of grease, the part is installed in place, after which you can manually screw the candle, gradually pressing it with a key. But you need to work very carefully so as not to pinch the parts.

      After installation, you need to connect the candles to the wiring and distribution block to restore the working chain. The last stage – starting the engine to check the correct operation and additional study of the candles.

      All work must be carried out carefully and carefully in order to avoid unnecessary mechanical stress, which is fraught with a violation of the entire performance of the engine and the car as a whole.
