Ever experienced engine trouble? The most common problems with the engine are rough idling, knocks, poor acceleration, hesitation, and even outright stalling. One of the usual suspects for these is worn spark plugs. Damaged and fouled plugs cause the engine to 'miss' its ignition cycles. And usually, the best and quickest way to solve this is to replace the worn plugs with quality ones like those from NGK. The company produces spark plug wire sets, oxygen sensors, and ignition performance accessories, but is most popularly known for its spark plug—the part that it has been producing since 1936. One of the things that the NGK brand is most famous for today is its platinum spark plugs. The company knows that when the plug deteriorates to the point that it can't produce enough spark anymore to burn the fuel, its tip gets easily coated with carbon deposits. NGK solved this problem by using platinum-coated tips on their spark plugs. Such kind of plugs last longer and resist carbon coating, thus producing spark more consistently. As one of the pioneers of spark plug platinum coating technology, the company remains one of the leading and trusted spark plug manufacturers in the market. So if you find your car's engine misfiring, check the spark plugs. If their tips are anything but brown or tan, start looking for replacements. Spark plugs soaked in oil and soot usually point to broken valve stem seals or bad piston rings. So for longer lasting optimum performance from your engine, it's best that you use high-performance NGK plugs. Browse Car Stuff's catalog now and order a set of NGK parts for your ride.
