    Dude, I was getting mad frustrated on the way home from the gym thinking my fuel tank is still clogged after using an entire bottle of fuel doctor over 2 months. But then I remembered, spark plugs? Car started idling terribly, even the crank took a bit longer then expected; I should have known at this point. Accelerating through some parts, the car was just not happy, almost hesitant every 10kms faster I'd go almost as if it would skip a beat. I had to go home the slow way through town because I thought the car would break down on the highway. Even noticed the fuel economy dropping the last 2 weeks. I'm now convinced it's the spark plugs; I've been nailing the acceleration lately and using the Over Drive. It's been at least 3 years since I got them changed last.

    Could your engine overheating cause spark plug failure? My spark plugs are new but the fan for the radiator broke the motor over heated once and I’ve been having a misfire for abt two weeks now but it overheated months ago.

    The motor of my old car went out in low speed range quite often. Changing the spark plugs let this symptom vanish.
