Those poor plugs were just screaming to be replaced. The gap was getting so wide the spark had to call an Uber to get from the electrode to the ground. My best it runs fine but not for the customer was while working at a marina. Had a new boater at the marina that got towed in on a Sunday but when I went down Monday it ran great. The next weekend the boat gets towed in and the same thing it runs great. Of course he tells a bunch of boaters I don't know what I'm doing. So I met him the next Sunday and we went out and I had him do everything up to when the boat stopped working. We ran up and down the lake as if we pulled a skier and pretended the skier went down. We drove back to pick up the skier and he shut the motor down to let the skier in. Then when he got ready to start the motor he pumped the heck out of the throttle. What the hell dude you just flooded it. We sat there for a bit with the throttle wide open telling him he just had to give it a couple pumps when it's cold to set the choke. The motor was hot and maybe just open the throttle a little but don't pump it like it owes you money when it's already up to temp. He never got towed again until I had to go drag his boat off a beach because when he hit the beach he fell forward and shoved the throttle wide open. He sold the boat 2 weeks later.

My 99 Ram 1500 would occasionally start running like crap and the check engine light would come on. The problem disappeared just as suddenly as it would appear and the CE light would go off. Got to the point I left the scan tool in it to catch the culprit. Cyl. 1 Misfire... figured with 192K on it plugs, wires cap, rotor were all in need of replacement. pulled the #1 plug and found the ground electrode completely eroded away, not a trace of it.

I had this happen on a personal vehicle. Car started running rough every now and then. Random check engine light, P0300. So I asked my son when we did the plugs last. I could have sworn he did them. Nope I was wrong. Went through the process of getting them out (thanks for nothing toyota). And it looked like my 2010 prius was at 230,000 with original plugs. Did that and some other things and wow what a difference. Although the biggest improvement was replacing egr cooler (acts as an IAC) and resetting the transmission (while rolling at idle stomp on gas and brake). And poof 42 miles per gallon. Before that even after a main battery swap we were only able to get 25 mpg.

Wow! Those probably were original plugs. The most I have put on a set of plugs is 170k miles in a Dodge Ram 1500 with a 5.7 hemi. I was using Bosch platinum +4 which due to having 4 electrodes allowed the plugs to last way past the 30k mile recommend change interval of the 5.7 hemi. Unfortunately I haven't been able to get those plugs anymore, and I had to replace them with Bosch Double Iridium plugs. I have 43k miles on them so far, and they are still working perfectly.

When I bought my Neon, it was running ok, but I thought I'd give it a treat, and gave it a new set of 'Iridium' plugs. 4000 miles later, it was struggling to drive properly, stalled occasionally. I dismissed the plugs as being the issue, (being new, but new doesn't always mean good) but eventually pulled them out, after firing a new set of injectors, coil and leads at it with no change . All 4 were burnt away like that first one you pulled. Replaced them with normal Denso U electrode plugs, that have now lasted 20,000+ without skipping a beat. Pretty sure the previous set were cheap knock offs, branded as NGK.

@peted5217 Жыл бұрын

Probably not. Many engines are sensitive to OE plugs. Different ones change ignition resistance, I suspect

@miscbits6399 Жыл бұрын

If you have a wasted spark engine then the iridium plugs need to be treated on BOTH surfaces, not just the core (NGK and Denso iridium come in 2 flavours with the cheaper ones only on the core..make sure you get the right part number) A lot of coil-on-plug with integral switching (like these 3 wire Nissan ones) effectively fire AC (multiple sparks, not just one each time) and need dual iridium electrodes for that reason Strap worn away is a really common indicator of this kind of issue. Essentially a wasted spark runs one plug 'backwards', resulting in electrode material transfer in the opposite direction to what's designed and the softer surface will rapidly disappear as a result (you'll end up contaminating the cat with traces of copper too, but that usually doesn't matter)

Take a dirty blinking light Nintendo Entertainment System that blinks no matter how clean you get it with isopropyl since there just isn’t a good connection with the security lockout chip, add some dielectric to the cartridge contacts and watch as the issue completely goes away. Of course, you want to remove the cartridge connector and clean all that out since it will ultimately attract dust and dirt, but it definitely works.

The problem with these valve covers is that you can't get spark plug well seals for them. Nissan's only solution is usually a new cover - and owing to some changes you need to be sure you've got the right one or internal clearance issues result (3rd party seals may be available now but they weren't in 2011) The cover is also the PCV oil separator. If that starts rattling it's replacement time too
