...given na walang problema ang engine. ano ba lifespan ng sparkplugs? sinasabay ko kasi lagi pagpalit tuwing oil change eh (every 10k). malinis naman lagi itsura nung luma.

[landlord]

When installing new spark plugs, do i still have to check and adjust the gap or naka set na ba yon from the box? Tnx.

Hi everybody,
I share the same query SCARAB has over the use of sparkplugs. In my case, once in every six months I tried to draw those four sparkplugs out, and clean the contacts but do not really know, or has not monitored, how often had I replaced sparkplugs over the last decade. Sometimes I replaced them in 1 year, 2 years, and in extreme cases even in 3 three years, depending on the brand. Kasi I usually experiement with different brands. Basta manipis na palit na. Is there really a hard and fast rule of changing sparkplugs other than the obvious, before you get stalled in the streets? Like all other consumables, maybe there is! What do you say?

[chrisboy]

we usually change sparkplugs every 6 months, coz every 6 months tune up namin. at 1 time, we bought bosch sparkplugs, they say you can change it after a year pa. ok naman but its expensive hehehe

Mga bro need help

Ano ba sakit ng sasakyan pag madalas pumalya ang makina?

Pina-overhaul ko na ang carburador
Na-top overhaul na ang engine nung january pero palyado na uli ngayon

Kelangan bang platinum sparkplugs na ang gamitin ko,hinde yung pangkaraniwan lang?

Yung sparkplug malakas at mabilis mag-karbon tulad ng nsa pix.
Carbon Fouling
Ano ba ibig sabihin nito:
1) Over-rich fuel mixture - (mali ba ang gaso na kinakarga ko?)
2) Carburettor mixture settings
3) Float level
4) Choke operation


My mga nag-suggest sakin na ipalinis ko muna ang Gas Tank, Fuel Pump Filter & Air Filter baka daw madumi na at baka sakaling yun ang cause ng pagpalya ng makina dahil sumasama ang mga kalawang o dumi sa pag-akyat ng gasolina.

Bka may iba pa kayong suggestions kung paano maiiwasan ang pagpalya ng makina, paki-post naman po.


Your immediate response would be very much appreciated.

Pwede nyo rin ako iemail sa mga replies nyo -- po1.migs*zipido.com
