- Helps your engine convert fuel into useable energy
- Engine misfires, poor fuel efficiency, difficulty accelerating, and random shut offs are signs of a worn spark plug
- Replacement is best done by a professional technician
Your Nissan spark plugs are located in a row along the top or side of your vehicle's engine. When you first see it, a Spark Plug may appear to be a long, oddly-shaped screw. Yet, it plays a vital role in your car's overall function. If your Spark Plug becomes so worn that it ceases operating efficiently, your vehicle may not start or run.
The spark plugs in your Nissan help your engine transform regular fuel into useable energy so that you're able to drive your Nissan. To do this, your Spark Plug generates an intense electrical spark. This spark then ignites the highly volatile mixture of fuel and air in your Nissan's combustion chamber, creating enough energy to power your Nissan as it drives down the road. Without a properly functioning Spark Plug, the power needed to ignite your fuel and convert it into energy decreases, which can cause critical concerns.
A Spark Plug needs routine inspection and servicing, similar to filters and tires on your Nissan. If these components are neglected for too long, you may begin to notice a few issues. Signs of an impaired Spark Plug are engine misfiring and knocking, lower gas mileage, problems with starting your vehicle, random shut-offs, and problems with accelerating. Each of these issues can hinder your car from driving and starting smoothly. Neglected spark plugs can also cause potential issues with many other engine components.
When replacing a Spark Plug, we recommend that you refer to your owner's manual for scheduled replacement recommendations. Most Spark Plug service periods are advised every 30,000 miles.
Doing a Spark Plug replacement yourself can be done but can prove slightly challenging as you may need to remove or disconnect car parts such as ignition cables, plug wires, coils and other critical components. We recommend leaving this work to mechanics and technicians. However, if you opt for doing the replacement yourself, consult your Nissan owner's manual, ensure that your vehicle is parked on a smooth surface, and detach the battery before starting.
Your Nissan needs a particular Spark Plug created with the appropriate materials. Provide your engine with what's needed by replacing an impaired Spark Plug with genuine OEM parts from Nissan Parts.
