What is a fouled spark plug?
Fouling spark plugs can happen when the tip temperature is insufficient to burn off carbon, fuel, oil or other deposits and causes spark to leach to metal shell...no spark across plug gap will cause a misfire. Wet-fouled spark plugs must be changed as they won't fire. Dry-fouled spark plugs can sometimes be successfully cleaned by bringing the engine up to the operating temp.
What happens if you put the spark plugs in your car that weren't gapped?
if the gap is too large it can make a weak or no spark condition witch can create a misfire. on the other hand if the gap is too small it can reduce the heat of the spark significantly witch can also create a misfire. both conditions may also result in fuel fouled spark plugs.
What if spark plug gap is too close?
If the spark plug gap is too close, it can lead to a weak spark, resulting in incomplete combustion of the air-fuel mixture. This can cause engine misfires, reduced power output, poor fuel efficiency, and increased emissions. It may also lead to fouled spark plugs and potential engine knocking. Regularly checking and adjusting the spark plug gap is essential for optimal engine performance.
