All Chevrolet models operate with the use of spark plugs. These little parts are small but mighty and are essential to the operation of your ignition system. Over time, they experience wear and tear and require replacement. During a spark plug replacement service, have a certified technician remove the old spark plugs from beneath the hood of your Chevrolet. They will then replace those spark plugs with brand new and factory approved spark plugs, and test your vehicle to ensure that they are working properly.
Because of the crucial job embodied in these little parts, it is highly recommended to have the spark plug replacement service done regularly. The lifespan on these spark plugs in most vehicles is around 100k miles, so having them changed at every 90k is the best practice. This service is quick and inexpensive maintenance costs.
Sometimes spark plugs may need to be replaced earlier and will show signs of their wearing. If you are having difficulties starting your Chevrolet regularly or experiencing a rough idle in your car, one or more spark plugs could have blown. In most of these cases, the check engine light will appear on your dash and a quick reading will provide you with the spark plug code indicating that it is time for replacing.
If you choose not to have it done when it is regularly scheduled, you may begin to notice signs of worn or blown spark plugs as described above. Knowing that a spark plug has blown and not replacing it right away can cause other parts of the ignition system to overwork due to the spark plugs not properly operating, and you may find yourself replacing other parts such as ignition coils throughout your engine.
