Tired of melting spark plug boots causing you headaches? ACCEL's Ceramic Spark Plug Boot spark plug wires can handle the heat...up to 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit! Perfect if you have headers or are working in tight quarters where heat is inescapable!
If the coil, spark plug and plug wire all appear to be okay, the misfire may be due to a dirty or dead fuel injector (check the injector's resistance and voltage supply, and use a NOID light to check for a pulse from the PCM driver circuit. If the injector appears to be okay, do...
Step 3: Run a resistance or ohms reading test (with a multimeter). Locate the harness connector on the ignition coil pack you've just removed. These connectors usually have three terminals. For this test, you'll need terminals 1 and 2. The best practice to locate the correct terminals for...
Matters of thread diameter and length resolved, you can still get into trouble with a spark plug property called "heat range." All conventional plugs, whatever the application, have to stay hot enough to burn away deposits (oil, carbon, etc.) that otherwise would short-circuit the spark, an...
threading of the new spark plug. Insert it in the socket and lower it into the spark plug chamber. Rotate it clockwise until it begins threading smoothly, then tighten it until you meet serious resistance. At this point, give the spark plug one-eighth of a turn to give it the proper ...
Step 2: Check the engine temperature before replacing the lawn mower beltIf the engine is hot, allow the exhaust system to cool down before attempting any maintenance.Step 3: Detach the spark plug wireOpen the hood and remove the spark plug wire(s). Ground the spark plug wire (s) ...
Pliers (to hold tubing while heating) For headphone wires, polyolefin heat-shrink tubings are highly recommended because of their durability and high resistance to extreme temperatures of about -55 up to 135 °C. 1. Choose the Right Size Select tubing slightly larger than your headphone wire ...
To test the ignition coil of a lawn mower, check resistance between the spark plug boot and the coil housing, using an ohmmeter.
Video of the Day Step 2 Connect the negative probe of the ohmmeter to a metal part of the engine, then connect the positive probe to the spark plug wire. Step 3 Measure the resistance on the circuit you've just created. A normal reading ranges from 2,500 to 5,000 ohms. Anything high...
Before cleaning your carburetor, check the air filter to make sure that the air coming into the carburetor is clean and free of blockage, which can result in black smoke emissions from the exhaust. Shut off the fuel supply and disconnect the spark plug wire, if one exists. Remove the housi...
