Whether you’re a DIYer, technician, or someone trying to understand a repair quote, you’ll learn:
The anatomy of a spark plug and how it creates combustion
The critical role of heat range and why the wrong one can cause serious engine damage
How to identify common spark plug failures (carbon fouling, overheating, oil contamination, cracked insulators)

When to replace your spark plugs (and how long they actually last)
Tips for proper installation, gapping, and torque
Why reading a used spark plug can be the best free diagnostic tool in your shop
We also cover how spark plug issues tie into fuel economy, engine performance, and long-term reliability. If you’ve ever wondered what that little part at the end of your ignition system really does — this is the video for you.
