Could bad plugs or coils also cause very small rpm fluctuation ?? On a right budget could really use some help with my 2010 Chevy Silverado no codes no lights besides tire pressure monitoring system I just had to change my u joints one was pretty seized up I'm hoping it didn't cause further problems but iv had the truck 3 years n haven't had a tune up yet
My 6 plugs looked like the one at the beginning. I had loss of power and rough idle symptoms, so today I had my spark plugs changed and the difference is noticeable. My car doesn't have a rough start anymore, cold start idling is stable, and acceleration is smooth. Hopefully it fixes my MPG issue as well, fingers crossed. Thanks for the help!
@@victorlafranceya I would say change your spark plugs and start with that Engine codes can mean a lot of things and my dodge charger came up with a an issue with the “short runner valve sensor” so I replaced them and still check engine light… but I’ve been avoiding changing the spark plugs because it’s a lot of work… I ended up doing it and my plugs were toasted. Rusted, no tip of spark and a huge gap in between the plugs…. Video explained symptoms of bad spark plugs and it’s all true. Lost of power, bad gas mileage and takes a few seconds longer to start… After spark plugs, car turns on right away no hesitation… car has full power now and def no more check engine light
The majority of the symptoms you have said in this video is what my car is doing. I SWEAR PEOPLE WHO CLAIM TO KNOW ABOUT CARS SAY "YOU NEED A NEW BATTERY OR ITS PROBABLY THE ALTERNATOR" I know im not a mechanic but i know for sure its not either one of those. I checked the fuses first. Im going to replace my spark plugs next cause im thinking that. I know its bout time to change the spark plugs anyway. GOD BLESS YOU FOR THIS VIDEO 💞🙏🏾😇
@@truegrizzlesfan2292also a good practice is to replace coils/wires as they may have caused the plug to fail and you’re already removing them to change plugs
LOl I have all of these symptoms. I had a hard start during the day today and was worried the car may not start again, so I drove straight home to my garage. Now the car doesn't start, but all the symptoms been happening for a while now before then. Hopefully the new spark plugs and ignition coil will fix this problem.
well thank you very much for this video & the video about coil parks. both coil & spark plug have issues on my Audi a3 2.0T. I now have to replace all of them just to be safe
I have an 08 Pontiac Torrent. When traveling at low speeds around 30-40mph and being gentle on the gas petal, the engine will lurch slightly and the rpm needle jumps slightly as well. Does this sound like spark plug or wires?
Alright I got one for ya, spark, fuel, no start. Changed crank sensor, map, maf, tps, fuel pump, fuel filter, air filter, egr, spark plugs and wires, also has a new battery and alternator, no knocks or ticks has good oil
what if only my car is shaking a little while idling? i have no check engine light and none of these other symptoms are happening, is it still most likely a spark plug issue?
Im having a hard time finding an answer to this but my vehicle runs like crap after I start it if it has been sitting for longer than a half day. Bogs down under acceleration, sputters and chokes, it does this until it warms up then runs perfectly fine. My hunch is that it is the plugs, what do you think?
I have most of the symptoms loss of power rough idling poor gas mileage but I don’t have check engine you think it’ll still be the spark plugs related?
Amazing video bro I was stressing thinking my motor was damaged, my car drives fine but when I step on it or go past 90-100 it starts vibrating and the check engine light comes on , and then I can see the white smoke coming out of the exhaust thanks I really appreciated 👏
3:06 what does the brown collar discoloration of the ceramic part by the thread mean? Is it normal that a plug has it after some time? Is the temp too high in cylinder?
Hoping someone could help with this. I have a 2016 Jeep Patriot. My car jerks and stutters when accelerating. No check engine light comes on. Do you think it could be the spark plugs?
I have the same issue on my opel insignia 2.8 v6. Drives perfectly fine even on high speed of around 250kmh as long as i don lt push the car and change gears quickly. As sson as i press the gas fully and accelerate the check light blinks for 4 to 5 seconds and car starts to vibrate and can feel jerking on gas till i turn off the car and when turn it back on its normal again.
I bought second hand Skoda Rapid 1.0 tsi 81kW, on the sale 37k mileage. Not bad, right? But soon after it started to quake on 1.5-2k revs half gas or more. Wtf? I am starting to suspect something because this is too soon, right (plugs changed, little better, coils this sat., hopefully it's ok after)?
07 mustang gt new engine new catalytic converters, new o2 , new maf new cold air intake, that my tuner calls for , car idles good, but ran bad from to big of cold air intake, so I’m hoping I have just fouling plugs, they are new from new engine; will check and clean them, car revs high, but will not move faster unless I slowly give it gas, wish me luck!
Got my car serviced recently.. still under warranty. Having start up issues. No lights are on .. changed battery for free. But still experiencing a long start at times.. I feel like it may be the spark plugs
Work for a dealership, and the techs told me it may also be a bad fuel pump not sending proper fuel pressure. (Didn’t physically see my car but just gave me another example to what could be causing my issue)
my corolla hybrid began stuttering and pulsating sporadically. lifted the bonnet and you could see the engine chugging and vibrating. replaced the plugs and she's brand new again. plugs were supposed to be swapped out at 60k miles. i let them run to over 80k miles.
I have a 1998 civic with the same issue i was wetting the motor with the engine off and a couple days later i started my car started getting these error codes and the crazy thing is i thought all components would be dry by the time i started the car im thinking i got water in the disturbutor cap spark plugs what you think ?
Sounds strange but German plugs are good for German cars. 🏯 Japanese plugs are good for rice burners. That's from over half a century of my experience. Always multimeter check for continuity and impedence isolation from center and insulator before installing ( manufacturers fired quality control employees to gives stockholders an extra nickel).
I’m wondering if that’s what’s wrong with my cat I have a 2014 Nissan Sentra my car before my car stopped my car would Stahl taking off from a light or a stop sign but it will drive fine then it recently stopped but it comes on, but when I put them in different gears ithe car wouldn’t move and then the engine light came on days later and now the car won’t start but it’ll come on but it won’t start and I’m wondering, is it because I never replace the spark plugs and it’s not the transmission
Yes most likely spark plugs they can cause transmission type symptoms its not your transmission I can bet change all spark plugs at once and your back on the road full speed!
@@Whereistes thank you so much I will try that and see my car has been just sitting for about almost 2 months and now my battery is dead somehow but I’ll jump it and have somebody change the plugs and see if that helps Different mechanics keep trying to tell me that it’s my transmission, but my uncle definitely said it sound like a spark plug problem

@@BrittanyXO1 yep they try to tell you lies. So you go buy a brand new car 🙄 dont listen..Once you change your plugs the cars regular operating voltage will return aka power back to the wheel/Drive Train💯
With the battery dead it’s actually not a bad thing in this situation once you restart the car replace w/ new plugs any “Service engine soon or warning symbols” should immediately go off. If not after a few off and On starts. God Bless🙏🏾
You missed an important diagnoises If you take an ohm meter and test thr Plug what happens is the meter will read anywere from 1800 to 3100 ohms hopwever the plug can not maintain proper ohm the meter will fluciate from ohms to open. if the plug is bad on the inside, I have bought new plugs and found at least 1 that were probably dropped and the plug was bad. the engine will intermittantly stop firing creating the misfire. this was verified on several ford f120 250 and 350 engines. Thanks for the infp.
Can any of these “symptoms” be caused by a defective battery ??? My dad swears it’s the battery in my 2011 Hyundai Sonata hybrid causing the car’s random misfiring while I’m driving on the highway.
Your car battery is responsible for starting the car . If your dad thinks it’s a electrical issue … needs to check fuses , bad wires , grounding straps or the alt .
Battery can cause these problems. Good service is always good idea. Oil/ oil filter/ plugs /air filter/ fuel filter. But charge are replaced battery! If you do lots of sort journeys battery never get the charge it needs. Top up battery once a month with a charger.

You waste gas still ?
@@victorlafrance surprisingly no. My car is old but I still get good MPG after the spark plug replacement, I get an extra 20-50 miles.
@@DPLS77 but did you have slow acceleration and loss of power going uphills ? Before changing them
@@victorlafrance I don't drive in the hills so I wouldn't know.

Hopefully this is the case for my bmw, just ordered ignition coils and spark plugs today.
Can you tell me the symptoms that your card had because mine looses power just doesn’t speed up as it should

Great explaination, just replaced the spark plugs on a '97 ford ranger, went from barely being able to start on a hill to running like new.
First symptom starts at 1:05. You’re welcome.
Replace all of your spark plugs. Never just replace some of them.
Common sense right?

For me, it needed a tune up. New plugs and boots. Runs like a top now.@@GesicaRadu-bu7cx
did you figure out the problem?
@@plutodread97 yes, it needed a tune up. New plugs and boots. Runs like new again
that check engline lights been on for 8 months i covered it up with a sticker because it was annoying me
You could just, ya know, fix it?
@@ryanadams3091 i could but i got a motorcycle now i use that to get to work and back. Plus the cars a write off it aint passing its next MOT
😂😂😂
I think I found my problem thank you
I got check eng lights blinking like that and it smells like fuel in the car, and weird smell out of the exhaust pipe
Spark plugs not burning the gas going to the cylinder. Change ALL of them.
Alright I got one for ya, spark, fuel, no start. Changed crank sensor, map, maf, tps, fuel pump, fuel filter, air filter, egr, spark plugs and wires, also has a new battery and alternator, no knocks or ticks has good oil
What engine? What about the crank sensor? And have you checked for compression
@@MoppsyFloppsyTV its in his list of stuff he has changed
Vacuum leak perhaps?

I got the same issue. Did you manage to sort it out or find out what the cause was?
I’ve got the same issue lack of power doesnt speed up as it should only going arround 40mph max Citroen c1
Did you managed to fix it and what was the problem

Hello my friend, what is the best type of spark plug, NGK or Bosch?

BOSCH!
ngk is garbage i had them twice in my bmw they always breakdown and i get misfires
