Which spark plug is best for LPG cars?
The ultimate spark plug to use in an LPG engine is the Iridium TT which meets all standard requirements. In the lower cost segment, Nickel TT is the perfect alternative for LPG engines in the place of nickel, the original fitment for petrol engines.
Do I need special spark plugs for LPG?
The combustion temperatures for LPG/CNG also fluctuate more than a petrol engine, thus contributing to reduced service life of up to 30\%. Therefore our recommendation is to upgrade to longer DENSO Iridium spark plugs, which improve ignition and engine performance, as well as extend the spark plug replacement interval.
What are LPG spark plugs?
They are spark plugs intended for engines using gaseous fuel (LPG,CNG,GPL,METHANE). Their usage eliminates the negative changes that occur when using gaseous fuel, e.g. higher voltage requirement from the ignition system and higher temperature in the combustion chamber.
What is the difference between Iridium and normal spark plugs?
Iridium is said to be six times harder and eight times stronger than platinum with a 700° higher melting point. Iridium spark plugs have extremely fine electrodes while retaining excellent wear characteristics. Thanks to its strength, iridium spark plugs can last up to 25\% longer than comparable platinum spark plugs.
What is the gap for NGK spark plugs?
These plugs are pre-gapped at . 044″. Do not adjust gap.
What’s better Denso or NGK?
Denso plugs are installed on almost every automobile model manufactured in Japan. The iridium used in them has a superior hardness. The electrode’s diameter in Denso plugs shrinks more than an NGK. For this reason, Denso plugs do not last longer than NGK units, but they are better at producing powerful sparks.
What type of spark plugs are best?
Iridium. The best spark plugs on the market boast an iridium construction. Iridium spark plugs give you even better gas mileage, performance, reliability, and longevity than double-platinum plugs.
Which is better spark plug iridium or platinum?
Iridium is arguably eight times stronger and six times harder than platinum. It has a higher melting point of about 700 degrees compared to platinum. Platinum spark plugs wear out faster than iridium spark plugs.
How do I know if my spark plug is bad?
What signs are there that your spark plugs are failing?
- Your car is a rough starter.
- Your car is a rough idler.
- Your engine will sometimes misfire.
- Your engine surges.
- Your fuel consumption is higher than usual.
- Your car isn’t accelerating as it should.
