First, the biggest difference between spark plugs at different prices is that the material of the electrode is not the same. The earliest appeared is the copper core spark plug. Copper is a good conductor and has better ignition performance, but its disadvantages It is soft and is easily worn out in a short period of time. Therefore, models equipped with copper core spark plugs generally need to be replaced after driving about 30,000 kilometers, and 40,000 kilometers is already its limit.
In addition to this type of spark plug, manufacturers also produce platinum spark plugs and iridium spark plugs, etc. These rare metals have higher hardness. Although their prices are relatively high, their service life has also been significantly improved. The service life of platinum spark plugs is 6 -80,000 kilometers, and iridium spark plugs can even be used for more than 100,000 kilometers.
The second point, after understanding the types of spark plugs, let’s take a look at which spark plug is suitable to choose. The most important thing is that it is not convenient to install and replace the spark plug. Because the structure of each car is different, the position of the spark plug is also different. The spark plug of some models is easier to replace. You only need to unplug the cylinder line to replace it. The car owner can do it by himself, so you choose a cheaper one. Copper core spark plugs will do.
However, there are also some models where the spark plugs are in a unique position, and it is impossible to replace them by yourself. You need to find a professional, and the replacement cost alone will cost a lot, so in order to avoid frequent replacement of spark plugs, you can choose more expensive spark plugs at this time. Longer, avoid frequent replacement, which one to replace depends on your actual situation.
The third point, in addition to this, you need to pay attention to the size of the spark plug. The size standards of different models are different, and you can find it in your car owner's manual. Be sure to find the same size as the original model, including the surface pattern and the length of the battery, otherwise it will affect daily driving.
The above three points are some aspects that car owners need to pay attention to when replacing and selecting spark plugs. If you want to improve the engine power output, you still need to start from other aspects. In addition, it is also more important to do a good job in the daily maintenance of the vehicle. After all, if there is a problem with the car, it does not happen suddenly, but is caused by your driving habits over time. This is especially important for car owners.
