2016 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S Used Cars in Charlotte, NC 28212. Avg. Dealer Rating: (5 reviews) They have been so great, answered all of my questions and very patient with me when I wasn't immediately responsive due to illness. They worked everything out for an out-of-state sale.
By examining the spark plugâs insulator color, even a less-than-mechanically-inclined person can determine valuable information about the engineâs overall operating condition. Normal: Grey to Light Golden-Brown Color. This condition is ideal, the spark plug and engine air/fuel mixture are operating properly.
What do spark plugs do. The spark plug is quite simple in theory: It forces electricity to arc across a gap, just like a bolt of lightning. The electricity must be at a very high voltage in order to travel across the gap and create a good spark. Voltage at the spark plug can be anywhere from 40,000 to 100,000 volts.
