I intend to change the spark plugs on my car in the not too distant future.
I've serviced my own cars for many years, so I'm no stranger to the basic method, the only difference on my car really seems to be two plugs per cylinder and also I have seen on youtube that there may be a clearance...
Ive replaced today spark plugs. Two of them where wet. I have to say the car starts and runs mint. No problems at all. What could it be? Gasket? Piston rings?
Im will be replacing soon the spark plugs. I always use on my other cars NGK Iridium and I was happy with them. Dont see NGK is doing them for the Merc. So what other options I have? What would you recommend? Bosch,Denso Iridium,NGK??
I bought these with the intention of replacing my plugs at the next service
I have since found having obtained my digital service record from MB that they were replaced a year ago so I will not need them.
These are brand new and unopened. I thought I would stick them on forum before I put...
Hi could i check my coil by removing centre wire from distributer and putting it to ground on the engine. Will it damage anything. I have no spark at plugs .Nothing wrong with dist or rota. Both clean and dry when i removed them. Sorry Mercedes w124 260e m103 engine.
It might sound stupid but I wonder if it is suitable to use OE spark plug designated for M111 (A003 159 75 03) for M112 (A004 159 50 03)??
They are the same gap (1.0mm)and yes they are different part numbers and different engines but what are other facts and figures that make them different...
Hope one of you gents can shed light on this problem. I am trying to test a 220 engine from a 1964 220SE w111. I'm using the electrics from another old Merc to supply the spark. So, I've basically wired up the starter and coil from the other car.
I find that I can see a spark on the plugs when...
Are these a good deal and more importantly the correct plugs for 55k engines?
Mercedes-Benz E-Class E 55 AMG Kompressor 8x Bosch Silver Spark Plug W4CS | eBay
I have searched the site but cannot find any specific answers as to the recommended plug type for the M112 engine, Bosch, Denso, Beru and NGK all list "suitable" plugs sometimes with two different versions for each brand.
Any recommendations and do the coil packs need to be removed when...
Hi
As the title says selling 17mm spark plug coil puller
I have 7 of them available at the moment so be quick in placing the order))
This tool saves time and money as some of the coils sticks to the spark plug over the time and very hard to pull it out
Also some of us pulling the wire to...
do we still need to adjust spark plug gaps in this day and age? I only ask because I installed new plugs last week and only just wondered if they need adjusting, they are the champion ones.
the ones i took off had very small pin like electrodes compared to the champion ones which are more like...
Hi folks! I am getting the occasional misfire at idle on my CLK 230 and I suspect spark plugs. As there is no indication on the service records of when they were last changed I may as well take on out and take a look.Recommended intervals is every 40000 and I am looking at some NGK iridium...
I've never felt a noticeable different after plug change on any cars (tell a lie, did have a misfire at 4k that disappeared on one car), but then they've generally been done within the recommended time frame.
However, whilst my C320 came with FSH, it was stamp only, not receipts, so I have no...
Hi, Purhased 12 new NGK IFR6D10 plugs for my SLK32 and hopefully going to fit them tomz. Went to check the gaps on the plugs but i'm dammed if i can find what the gap should be in owners manual. I know they suposed to come preset but would like to check prior to fitting them. Also is there a...
My car will be due a service soon and the plugs will need to be changed due to 4 years,
I have decided to supply my own oil and plugs but went onto Eurocarparts to source some and there are 5 to choose from as per link ranging from £8 ea to £16, now is that due to quality or what, as i need 12...
