Why Spark Plug Condition Matters

Spark plugs play a critical role in engine ignition by creating the spark that ignites the fuel-air mixture in each cylinder. Over time, plug electrodes wear, carbon deposits build up, and ignition efficiency drops. Worn or fouled spark plugs can lead to rough idling, reduced fuel economy, harder starting, and inconsistent performance. Professional spark plug replacement in Dublin ensures optimal combustion, smoother engine operation, and improved efficiency.

What Is Spark Plug Replacement?

Spark plug replacement is a maintenance service that involves removing old plugs, inspecting their condition, selecting the appropriate type for your engine, and installing new plugs with correct gaps and torque. Depending on the vehicle and usage, different spark plug types may be recommended, such as standard copper, iridium, or platinum. The service may also include checking ignition cables and coils to ensure the full ignition system is functioning correctly.

  • Engine misfires or hesitation during acceleration

  • Rough or unstable idle

  • Increased fuel consumption
