Spark Plugs

Spark plugs are on of the most important parts of your internal combustion engine, which is why keeping an eye out for potential problems with these parts is so important. They are like other maintenance items like fuel filters and oil filters in the sense that they should be checked and serviced on a regular basis. One of the signs that your spark plugs might be wearing out is slow acceleration of your vehicle. The spark plugs have to be able to produce enough heat to ignite the air and fuel mixture inside your BMW. If the materials of the spark plug wear out, it can cause your vehicle to run sluggishly or have a hard time picking up speed. Another issue that can occur from faulty spark plugs is decreased fuel economy. A properly functioning spark plug helps fuel to burn efficiently, whereas a failing one will affect the process in a negative way. A worn out spark plug wire can also cause misfiring of the engine, which can lead to increased exhaust emissions and decreased engine power. If you notice some of these symptoms, make sure you replace your spark plugs with OEM parts. OEM spark plugs are made of high quality materials and will fit your BMW make and model perfectly.
