Common spark plug conditions NORMAL Symptoms: Brown to grayish-tan color and slight electrode wear. Correct heat range for engine and operating conditions. Recommendation: When new spark plugs are installed, replace with plugs of the same heat range. WORN Symptoms: Rounded electrodes with a small amount of deposits on the firing end. Normal color. Causes hard starting in damp or cold weather and poor fuel economy. Recommendation: Plugs have been left in the engine too long. Replace with new plugs of the same heat range. Follow the rec- ommended maintenance schedule. CARBON DEPOSITS Symptoms: Dry sooty deposits indicate a rich mixture or weak igni- tion. Causes misfiring, hard starting and hesitation. Recommendation: Make sure the plug has the correct heat range. Check for a clogged air filter or problem in the fuel system or engine management system. Also check for ignition system problems. ASH DEPOSITS Symptoms: Light brown deposits encrusted on the side or center electrodes or both. Derived from oil and/or fuel additives. Excessive amounts may mask the spark, causing misfiring and hesitation during acceleration. Recommendation: If excessive deposits accumulate over a short time or low mileage, install new valve guide seals to prevent seep- age of oil into the combustion chambers. Also try changing gaso- line brands. OIL DEPOSITS Symptoms: Oily coating caused by poor oil control. Oil is leaking past worn valve guides or piston rings into the combustion chamber. Causes hard starting, misfiring and hesitation. Recommendation: Correct the mechanical condition with neces- sary repairs and install new plugs. GAP BRIDGING Symptoms: Combustion deposits lodge between the electrodes. Heavy deposits accumulate and bridge the electrode gap. The plug ceases to fire, resulting in a dead cylinder. Recommendation: Locate the faulty plug and remove the deposits from between the electrodes. TOO HOT Symptoms: Blistered, white insu- lator, eroded electrode and absence of deposits. Results in shortened plug life. Recommendation: Check for the correct plug heat range, over- advanced ignition timing, lean fuel mixture, intake manifold vacuum leaks, sticking valves and insuffi- cient engine cooling. PREIGNITION Symptoms: Melted electrodes. Insulators are white, but may be dirty due to misfiring or flying debris in the combustion chamber. Can lead to engine damage. Recommendation: Check for the correct plug heat range, over- advanced ignition timing, lean fuel mixture, insufficient engine cooling and lack of lubrication. HIGH SPEED GLAZING Symptoms: Insulator has yellow- ish, glazed appearance. Indicates that combustion chamber temper- atures have risen suddenly during hard acceleration. Normal deposits. melt to form a conductive coating. Causes misfiring at high speeds. Recommendation: Install new plugs. Consider using a colder plug if driving habits warrant. DETONATION Symptoms: Insulators may be cracked or chipped. Improper gap setting techniques can also result in a fractured insulator tip. Can lead to piston damage. Recommendation: Make sure the fuel anti-knock values meet engine requirements. Use care when set- ting the gaps on new plugs. Avoid lugging the engine. MECHANICAL DAMAGE Symptoms: May be caused by a foreign object in the combustion chamber or the piston striking an incorrect reach (too long) plug. Causes a dead cylinder and could result in piston damage. Recommendation: Repair the mechanical damage. Remove the foreign object from the engine and/or install the correct reach plug.
