Signs Of Wear &#38; Troubleshooting - Section 1 - Bullet 1Your engine having trouble starting, hesitating, or cutting out
Faq - Answer 8Yes, ACDelco has marine spark plugs for many applications.
Signs Of Wear &#38; Troubleshooting - Section 1 - HeaderSigns of wear for spark plugs include but are not limited to:
Faq - Answer 7No, cleaning your old spark plugs is not recommended. Dirty, fouled spark plugs may also have broken or chipped insulator tips, worn electrodes, or worn or missing side wires. These conditions severely affect spark plug performance. Replace your dirty, fouled spark plugs with new ACDelco spark plugs.
Faq - Answer 6Yes, pre-ignition can cause serious damage to your engine. Pre-ignition is the ignition of fuel before the actual spark occurs, which causes a rapid temperature rise in the combustion chamber that can damage engine components and melt spark plug electrodes. Causes of pre-ignition include but are not limited to a buildup of deposits that can become incandescent in the combustion chamber, improper installation torque being applied to spark plugs, and having spark plugs with a heat range that is too hot for the engine's operating condition.
Faq - Answer 5Not always, but you should inspect your spark plug wires for wear when replacing your spark plugs. Refer to your vehicle owner's manual or contact the manufacturer for more information.
Faq - Answer 4Yes. When ACDelco spark plugs are manufactured, they are pre-gapped to the correct gap specification.
Faq - Answer 3A No, diesel engines do not use spark plugs.
Faq - Answer 2Yes, if it is the scheduled time for spark plug replacement. It is okay to replace one spark plug if it is fouled or damaged prior to scheduled maintenance, provided the source of the damage is found and corrected.
Faq - Answer 1Yes, this interval depends on what type of spark plug your vehicle requires. Refer to your owner's manual or contact your vehicle's manufacturer for more information.
