Four Signs Your Car's Spark Plugs Need Replacement

Four Signs your Car’s Spark Plugs Need Replacement!

Before the spark plug inspection, you should be aware of the common symptoms that indicate that there is something wrong with these components.

These will be the warning signs from your Kia when the spark plugs are worn out and need replacement:

1. Low Fuel Economy – A car achieves a better fuel economy when the spark plugs work properly because they help with efficient fuel burning in the combustion chamber. If the plug is faulty, it will affect the fuel-efficiency.

2. Trouble Starting your Vehicle – Worn spark plugs could be one of the reasons for having trouble starting the car.

3. Misfiring Engine – Sporadic popping sound from the engine is the sure sign of a misfire. The probable culprit is a frayed spark plug wire or a damaged plug tip that connects to the wire.

4. Slow Acceleration – A spark plug is made of several materials that work together to produce the sparks. The plugs don’t work properly when these materials wear out, resulting in slowing the acceleration down.

If you are experiencing any of these issues, it is a good indication to book a service appointment with our Specialists to make sure your Kia is running in top shape.
