The sail undergoes natural wear, because it works under severe conditions, like pressure and high temperatures. Therefore, recomendamos uma inspeção a cada 10 mil quilômetros ou anualmente, what happens first, in addition to checking the cables and coils", comments Hiromori Mori, NGK Technical Assistance Consultant.

In the traditional six pack, for example, o ideal é que os proprietários substituam a gasolina do reservatório a cada 90 dias em um posto de confiança. "This guarantees, beyond the quality, may the fuel be always fresh, which facilitates cold starts", highlights Mori. In vehicle models that do not have a six pack, another very common technology is the system that heats ethanol when the engine temperature is too low at start-up.. "This is a solution that requires great power from the vehicle's electrical system to operate and that also requires extra care with the ignition. Forcing its use with the spark plug worn out causes battery problems and causes failures", finaliza Hiromori Mori. Download
