Why do your spark pulgs spark on the outside of the motor?

If you see sparks coming from your spark plugs something is wrong. You could have broken insulation on the wires. You could have broken spark plugs. You could have too much grease and gunk on the wires. If the spark is outside, it is not burning the gas inside the engine and you are sending unburned gasoline out the tailpipe. Tell me which brand of gasoline you are wasting your money on and I will buy stock in the company. The cure is probably new plugs, wires, etc.


How do you change the spark plugs on a 2000 Malibu?

The plugs up front are easy to get at, and don't require anything special. Word of warning, if your Malibu has relitivley high mileage on it (80,000+) and it still has the factory plug wires, there is a good chance that they will break on you when you have to pry them off of the plugs, go ahead and replace the plug wires when you replace the plugs.
