What are the symptoms of a bad ignition condenser?

A bad condenser will cause the ignition points to spark more heavily, and burn out sooner. Also misfiring, bucking, and even stalling can occur as the spark may not be sufficient at the plug. The condenser helps reduce sparking at the contact points, and it also stores and provides extra energy for the next spark event, so a bad condener will reduce the strength of your overall ignition spark.


1996 Jeep Cherokee that turns over but will not start no spark to the distributor or the spark plugs replaced the ignition coil and the pick-up coil in the distributor Engine is getting fuel .?

There's also the crankshaft position sensor mounted on the drivers side / top of the transmission housing. Some auto parts stores carry them, some don't. The voltage connector is on top of the intake manifold, near the firewall. Also check the voltage to the ignition coil.


Main advantages and disadvantages between compression ignition and spark ignition engines?

A spark ignition engine is a gasoline engine. A compression ignition is a diesel engine.basic difference between compression and spark ignition engine is ,compression ignition is a diesel engine. spark ignition is a gasoline engine.diesel engines compress the fuel to a point where the fuel explodes, thus giving ignitiongasoline does not compress to explosion, therefore it needs need a spark to ignite the fuelspark ign. is gasoline. comp. ign. is diesel.A compression ignition engine is typically a diesel. It compresses air so much that the heat from the compression is enough to cause the fuel to ignited once injected. A spark ignition engine is your average gasoline-burning car engine. It uses a spark plug to ignite the air/fuel mixture instead of relying on compretssion ignition.A compression ignition engine uses very high compression of the air to heat it self up and the fuel is injected into the cylinder which self ignites (a diesel engine is a compression ignition engine).A spark ignition engine uses a lower compression ratio and requires the use of a spark to ignite the fuel (a petrol engine is a spark ignition engine).Because the oils used for a diesel have a higher calorific value, they have a better fuel economy, They also do not need extra energy usage to keep the engine running, unlike the energy that is lost to power the spark plugs from the generator/alternator which is taken from the useful energy produced by the engine.

How do you replace rear spark plugs in a 2007 acadia?

Cost to replace spark plugs and wires?

If you can do it yourself, it is not very expensive at all. A couple of dollars for each spark plug and maybe 50 for the wires. I would also replace any other ignition components that are wear items if you are going to replace plugs and wires. My car had a cap and rotor that I also replaced for minimal money. If you have a garage do it, expect to pay several hundred dollars.


Why does 1999 ford escort wagon hesitate when accelerating?

It's more than likely that it needs a new fuel filter, spark plugs and ignition wires. While you are in there replace the air filter also.


How do you replace the spark plugs on a 1992 Chevy Camaro?

Same way as every other car. Pull the ignition wires off of the plugs, one at a time, then use a spark plug wrench and a socket to loosen and remove the spark plugs (Twist them to the left like a screw) Put anti-seize on the new spark plug's threads, then hand-tighten it into the hole the old one came out of, then tighten with the spark plug wrench another 1/8-1/4 turn. Put the ignition wire back on, and move on until all the plugs are changed. I would recommend changing your ignition wires at the same time as the plugs. Also, if you can't reach the actual plugs with the wrench, you may have to pull the engine, which is possible if you have the LT1 and big hands.


What does an ignitor unit assembly do on a 2002 Yamaha vstar 1100?

The ignitor unit controls the signal from the magnito to the ignition coils. This in turn controls the spark to the spark plugs and also controls the timing of the firing of the spark plugs in proper sequence.


Why would a 94 jeep grand Cherokee have good fuel pressure no spark?

I would replace distributor cap & rotor button, plugs & wires, and if necessary distributor. Also, check your ignition timing, if you broke a timing chain you wouldn't have any spark.


How do you change the spark plugs on a 2002 Volvo S40?

to change the plugs you must take off the spark plug boots..you then take the spark plugs out with a 5/8 sparkplug socket..put the new plugs in the holes and finger tighten them a little(with the socket and extension so that it doesnt cross thread)it might also be wise to replace the wires if they look bad or cracked..


Do the spark plugs wires need to be replace when replacing spark plugs?

No, they don't necessarily have to be replaced. However it is usually a good idea to replace the wires along with the spark plugs. As the wires age and go through heating cooling cycles they get stiff and brittle. As you flex the wires to remove them from the spark plugs the inner conductor often breaks causing a misfire. Also when you pull the spark plug boots off of the spark plugs the connector often can break loose and stay on the spark plug, thus ruining the wire.

Can worn spark plugs cause engine knock?

Worn spark plugs would cause mis-firing or non firing cylinders, both are no good for the engine, replacing the plugs may stop the knock (Could also be a different problem) But you should replace spark plugs as soon as possible.


Why does your radio buzz and get louder as you depress the acelerator on your Lexus RX300?

You might not have the correct spark plugs. Most spark plugs have a resistor included in them to prevent radio interference. Check the numbers on the plug with an auto parts store and see if your plugs are the resistor type. If not, switch them out. You might also have a problem with the electronic ignition, so if changing the plugs does not help, take the vehicle to a garage and have the ignition system checked out.
