    I just want to point out today I encountered a tricky problem. So I have a car with V6 engine that has multiple misfire just after having replaced new plugs, new spark plugs. I found out cylinder number six has problems by using the risky unplugging method, and I swapped that coil with number five cylinder, and did the unplug test on those two cylinders, now the number five cylinder has no change, so now I know the plug that was on cylinder number six which is now on cylinder number five is bad. And weird thing happens as I use spark tester tool, when I check just the bad ignition coil itself, the tester actually flashes! However when I include the spark plug in the tester it won’t, on either number five or six cylinder, so the spark plugs are not at fault on these two cylinders. My understanding is this bad ignition coil is just weak, that it can pass the spark test by itself, but it won’t function under normal operating conditions. Gotta say the ignition system is always tricky! Hope my experience helps!

    Hi, I have a problem with my Mini Cooper s r56 not start.
    The mini was on taking it out of the garage when it suddenly turned off. The first Scanner have these codes:
    2781
    2775
    2D52
    *2DCA*
    275F
    272F
    I changed 4 spark plugs, 4 coils, the Camshaft Position Sensor and a new battery. But it did not turn on, now it is giving these codes:
    005E31
    009314
    *00A0B4*
    00932D
    009CB5
    I deleted them and it only gives me this code: ( A0B4 )
    The mini starter good but not start.
    I try the new battery and it says it's ok, but when I test the battery with the terminals mounted on the Mini Cooper it says it's bad I don’t now why. I also reset the new battery in the mini system with the scanner but nothing.
    ( A0B4 )

    @kurtiscal3msetccdwell618 2 года назад +14

    It seems to me that the last test is not capable of testing the spark plug as all your seeing is the coil pack firing and not the spark plug electrode firing or how it is firing.

    • @atari7001
      @atari7001 Год назад +5

      It’s a lot harder for the spark to jump through a spark plug due to the compressed gasses in the cylinder acting as a powerful insulator. If plug voltage is too low, you won’t get a spark and the light won’t illuminate. This can indicate a bad coil.
