Spark Plugs

The ignition system in your Mercedes is very important to maintain. The spark plugs in your car are what cause the spark needed to generate ignition. The spark made by the spark plug allows the combustion process to begin. The combustion process moves the engine pistons and allows the car to stay running once it has been started. The spark plugs also help to burn fuel efficiently. The spark plugs in your car do have to be changed periodically for your engine to stay healthy. Of course, they should be replaced if you're finding they are causing problems with the operation of your vehicle. Your car might have faulty spark plugs if it is accelerating slowly, it is getting poor fuel economy, the engine is misfiring, surging or hesitating, if it has a hard time starting, or if it is idling roughly. The number of spark plugs you will need will depend on the number of cylinders you have in your vehicle. Because the spark plugs are manufacturer specific, you will want to replace them with OEM parts. Only OEM Mercedes spark plugs are going to be made from quality materials with your model in mind.
