@@GeneralSulla I had a 2001 Honda Stream (Civic derivative) and would still have it now if the auto box hadn't failed around 80K. All of the electrics still worked, none of the switches etc broke, seats held together. But Hondas aren't immortal. The auto box problem was subject to a recall in the early 2000s and apparently not fixed on the one I got used. It was too late when I found out. A remanufactured box was installed but then the torque converter gave up the ghost. Apart from that the only issue was that it was heavy on brake pads and rotors. No I didn't drive it in sport mode like an idiot 😉

Friend of mine asked me if I could help him with a misfire on his Toyota Echo. Real cute little car with a tiny 4cyl engine. Sure 'nuff, misfire on cylinder 3, and it went to 2 when the coil pack was swapped. Figured, needed new plugs, so pulled them out - the gap was so large the gapper didn't have a big enough blade. Asked him when he last had the plugs changed (with the car at 199,000 miles). "Uhh, you have to change those?" Turned out the car had tried so hard to get spark cross those gaps that it basically blew out the one coil pack. His other three were still good, and no doubt were very happy to have properly gapped plugs again.

@anthonybuonagurio-gl9bg 9 ай бұрын

The excessive gap was making the leaking wires arc worse. A set of plugs would have fooled the ordinary human by improving the misfire. The arc under the cap you detected when the plug wire was removed confirmed the it was time for the cap and rotor to be replaced as well. We routinely replaced the set of components but this time it was confirmed that all parts had come to the end of their service life.

Do you ever use dielectric grease on the distributor connections?

@Thestargazer56 9 ай бұрын

That would possibly cause extra resistance. Putting plug end , the grease is supposed to only touch the metal bottom outside of the plug reducing the chance of carbon tracking(electricity leaking) and makes getting the wires off, the next possible time easier, you try not to get too much grease that would touch the electrical connection. Dielectric grease is a non-conducting grease.

If a 2019 Audi needed similar work done the bill would have been 5 grand at the dealer. It's impressive that for a car likely built in 1999, you can order in parts, get them delivered the same day and get the car all fixed the same day.
