At first glance it seems that ATV spark plugs are small parts. But they are responsible for igniting the fuel mixture and starting the ATV. In addition, the candle is a kind of "indicator" of the health of the equipment, and can inform the rider about a number of malfunctions. Therefore, it is important for the driver to know when, after buying an ATV, to change this component and how to do it correctly.
The spark plug is basically a consumable item. The technical documentation for the device indicates the manufacturer's recommendations when to change this component. On average, the "life" of a candle is 6-8 thousand km. However, it all depends on the condition of the ignition element.
The following can reduce the life of a component:
Damage to the element will cause a number of problems. For example, if the rider noticed that there was no spark on the ATV spark plug, it became difficult to start the engine, fuel consumption increased, or the engine started to work incorrectly, you need to change the spark plug.
It should be noted right away that the resource and operation of a spark plug directly depends on its quality.
Therefore, drivers should only buy proven products from well-known brands. Agree, it is easier to buy a good component that will last 8 thousand km than to buy a new part every 1.5-2 thousand km.
There are also a number of parameters to consider when choosing a new component for the ignition system. The key role is played by the dimensions of the candle itself (thread diameter and its length). You need to pay attention to the heat number. This is also an important parameter, ignoring which can lead to uncontrolled ignition of the fuel mixture upon contact with soot or hot engine elements.
To avoid problems, a special marking is applied to the plug, which indicates the permissible temperature of the component and its resistance to pre-ignition. This is a really important characteristic, because the piston is destroyed due to uncontrolled ignition.
Low spark plug temperature will also damage your ATV. If you buy a component with too high a heat number, carbon formation will increase and the engine will lose power.
Most often, on the market you can find candles with glow number:
Before you buy a spark plug for a children's ATV or an adult ATV, always study the technical documentation. The instructions usually indicate the optimal parameters of all consumable components.
It is important to note that in order to change the spark plug, you will have to remove part of the ATV's bodywork. In almost all quadrics, the component is covered with plastic parts and even accessories (gas tank, etc.
).
After you have dismantled the body part, you need:
After this, inspect and clean the spark plug (if you intend to continue using it). Inspection of the component should not be ignored, as it will help to detect problems in the operation of the ATV.
By the type of spark plugs on the ATV, you can determine the serviceability of the equipment. For example, if:
And these are only the most common "diseases" that can be diagnosed with a spark plug.

Today's motorists often do not understand what is happening under the beautiful plastic covers in the engine compartment of their cars. But absolutely everyone is aware of the fact that it is necessary to fill in the washer, check the oil level and consumables, including changing spark plugs. The spark plug is used to ignite the air-fuel mixture in the engine and the condition of this element is an important indicator of the performance of the motor itself.
The spark plugs are responsible for the normal operation of the engine.
These consumables are designed to provide:
Moreover, all candles, regardless of the number provided by the engine design, must be the same, and even better - from one set. And, of course, absolutely everything must be serviceable.
First of all, each brand has its own parameters for this element, and they differ for different types of engines. The necessary data can be found in the model manual or in an authorized dealer technical center.
If for some reason it is not possible to find a 100% analogue of old candles, it is necessary to rely on the maximum correspondence of thermal characteristics and geometric dimensions.
The most durable and excellent sparking are candles with platinum or iridium electrodes - they can last up to 120 thousand kilometers. Their main disadvantage is their high price.
In order to have as little doubt as possible about one of the key elements of the engine of your car, you should buy spark plugs only in company stores - and better licensed ones, with the brand of the manufacturer on the body. However, in this case, the goods should also be examined for absence:
Remember: you have every right to bring consumables purchased by yourself to the dealer service station, even for a warranty vehicle
It is necessary to change flammable consumables, focusing on several criteria:
The interval for replacing spark plugs depends on the vehicle model and is prescribed in the technical recommendations for the operation of vehicles by the manufacturer.
