      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!

      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…

      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).

    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.
