39 dollars for parts? Hopefully they aren't champion plugs. Hell of a deal
Ignition coil most likely. I have done many dozens of them. Takes about 2 minutes to replace.
Champion copper plugs are great! Why change if they are working perfectly? Copper is a better conductor than anything other than silver.
I recently got Denso (OEM) from my local o’reillys cheaper than the dealer (~$80).
Bro ABSOLUTELY do the spark plugs yourself. I bought oem Denso spark plugs from Napa Auto for about $180. Then all you need is a spark plug socket w/ swivel head, 10mm socket, 12mm, a couple extensions, needle nose pliers, dielectric grease, and a pick to make life easier.
Denso iridium spark plugs
When I started the vehicle up, it woke up really aggressive, there was a strong gas smell and it stuttered badly when driving her, along with the check engine light flashing at me when I did the test drive.\n\nAfter taking out the coil pack, I found that there was a lot of crap inside the springs within the boots...looked like dielectric grease gummed up by the previous owner. After cleaning all those springs and making sure they were straight, I took the new Spark plugs out (Champion Copper) I rechecked the gap and they were all good, after putting everything back together the old girl started up quick as hell, no shaking or anything. I drove it for 15 minutes and I had no issues whatsoever.
the guy said the spark plugs I used are the issues because they are champion brand and I needed to use NGK brand for my Acura
A few years back I bought a box set of eight Champion spark plugs that were made in Russia, and four spark plugs did that.
I've seen it multiple times in Champion in a small engine shop.
