How Often Should You Change Your Jaguar F-PACE Spark Plugs?

The spark plug is an important part of a car’s ignition system. (only found in spark-ignition ICEs)

It was developed by Etienne Lenoir in 1860.

It generates electric sparks to ignite the compressed air-fuel mixture.

You can find it attached to the cylinder head of your car engine.

Timely spark generation is detrimental for a smooth engine operation.

How long do spark plugs last?

The average lifespan of a spark plug is about 2030,000 miles or 2 to 3 years.

However, it can wear out prematurely.

What causes spark plugs to fail prematurely?

Listed below are a few reasons why spark plugs can fail prematurely:Carbon soot build-up at the tip Exposure of oil and other contaminants Frequent engine overheating Incorrect installation Improper spark plug gap Flaws in the electric system

What happens when spark plugs wear out?

Rough Engine Idle

This is perhaps the first thing you would notice when your car’s spark plug fails.

Rough engine idling can be characterized by inconsistent RPM counts along with a shaking sensation.

Difficult To Start The Engine

Trouble starting your car is another sure indicator of spark plug failure.

A dying battery and faulty ignition can also result in starting problems in your car.

Engine Misfire And Stalling

Improper spark plug firing can give rise to several drivability issues like:Engine misfire Stalling and overheating

Poor Engine Performance

Having a set of worn-out spark plugs can make your car engine misfire and lose power.

You can solve this problem by simply replacing the faulty spark plugs.

Increased Fuel Consumption

If your car is consuming more fuel than usual, there’s a good chance its spark plugs are failing.

You can conduct a visual inspection to check if the spark plugs are firing properly or not.

Sum Up

Defective spark plugs can make your car engine run rough and seize up.

Therefore, it is in your best interest to test them regularly.

To do so, you can use a multimeter.

If the reading is within the range of 4,000 to 8,000 ohms, then the spark plugs are working fine.
