- Replacement is best done by a professional technician
Your Nissan spark plugs are located in a row on the side or top of your engine. When you first see it, your Spark Plug may look like a large, misshapen screw. In reality, it plays a special part in your car's overall function. If any Spark Plug becomes so damaged that it no longer functions correctly, your vehicle probably won't run.
Your Nissan spark plugs and the engine work to turn standard fuel into useable energy, enabling you to move your Nissan down the road with ease. To do this, your Spark Plug generates an electrical spark that ignites the highly volatile combination of air and fuel in your combustion chamber, creating more than enough energy to get your car moving down the road. Without a great working Spark Plug, the power needed to spark the fuel and process it into working energy lessens, which can cause some pretty serious concerns.
Your Spark Plug needs periodic servicing, much like filters, motor oil, and tires on your Nissan. If these components not cared for regularly, you may begin to notice a few issues. Potential signs of an impaired Spark Plug include engine knocking and misfires, decreased fuel efficiency, starting problems, sudden immobilization, and problems with accelerating. All of these problems can stop your vehicle from starting and driving efficiently. A damaged Spark Plug can also cause potential issues with your other engine parts.
When replacing a Spark Plug, we suggest that you read over your Nissan owner's manual for recommended replacement periods. Many Spark Plug service intervals are advised every 30,000 miles.
Installing your Spark Plug yourself can be done but can prove a bit challenging as you may need to detach and remove ignition cables, plug wires, coils and other vital Nissan components. We recommend leaving this job to authorized Nissan mechanics and technicians. But if you do choose to do the repairs at home, refer to your car owner's manual, make sure that your Nissan is parked on a smooth surface, and disengage the battery before beginning the installation.
Each vehicle requires a specific Spark Plug designed with proper material(s). Give your Nissan what it needs to perform by trading an impaired Spark Plug with genuine OEM parts from Nissan Parts.
