Check of a condition and replacement of spark plugs and ВВ electroconductings

The tools necessary at replacement of spark plugs

1 — the Candle head - Is equipped by the special elastic loose leaf excluding possibility of casual damage of a porcelain insulator at a reversing of a candle.
2 — the Dinamometrichesky key - without entering into number of obligatory tools, provides a reliable guarantee of correctness of effort of a tightening of spark plugs.
3 — the Ratchet drive - Is applied in the complete set with a candle head and динамометрическим a key.

4 — the Extension piece - Depending on model and a complete set access to spark plugs can be limited by its auxiliary units in various degree, therefore application of extension pieces of the corresponding form and a design will allow to facilitate procedure performance appreciably.
5 — the Adaptation for measurement and updating of interelectrode backlashes of spark plugs - Is issued some this sort of types of tools, - make sure that the tool is completed probeом, to backlashes of candles of your car corresponding on the size.


 If original candles after condition check are established again on the engine, they should be rolled strictly in former cylinders, - make corresponding marks.


Check and adjustment

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. In most cases for replacement of spark plugs presence of a special candle head (with the elastic loose leaf inside) complete with a ratchet drive, and also a set of extension pieces of a drive of a key and the adaptation for check and updating of interelectrode backlashes is required. For a safe detachment of tips ВВ of wires from shafts of spark plugs the special tool though its application and is not strictly obligatory also is issued. Use динамометрического a key will allow to achieve correct effort of a tightening of candles.
2. Most correctly constantly to hold in the car the complete set of replaceable spark plugs with the adjusted interelectrode backlash. At purchase of new candles watch that they met on the parametres to requirements of the engine of your car. The necessary information is led in Specifications to the present Chapter, and also on label VECI fixed under a cowl (in case of different interpretations preference it is necessary to give information with VECI).
3. Start a reversing of candles only after full cooling of the engine. Not to waste in vain time, take advantage of a pause for check of a condition of the replaceable complete set. Attentively examine new candles, - at revealing of the slightest cracks in an insulator the corresponding candle should be rejected. Measure size of interelectrode backlashes of the new complete set (see further).

4 Interelectrode backlash of a candle is checked by introduction in it corresponding probeа a measuring instrument and should correspond to standard requirements. A demanded thickness probe should with easy resistance slip between lateral and central candle electrodes. Backlash updating can be made by means of the special adaptation which are usually a part of a measuring instrument - turn in in appropriate way a lateral electrode of a candle.

5 If the lateral electrode appears is located not precisely over central, correct its position by appropriate amount. Make sure of absence of cracks and other damages to a porcelain insulator of a candle. Presence of any sort of defects of an insulator is inadmissible. If the face surface of the central electrode is close to a hemisphere.

REMOVAL

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

In order to avoid infringement of an order of ignition at electroconducting connection it is necessary to make обслу живание each of candles in an individual order.


Models 2.0 and 2.5 l

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Disconnect a negative wire from the battery.
2. Remove the inlet chamber of an air path in gathering with an air inlet sleeve.

3. Disconnect electroconducting from pumps of giving of a liquid of washing of glasses. On the models equipped with a screen wiper of back glass, disconnect a hose of a washer of back glass and закупорьте штуцерный a socket a suitable plug.

4. Turn out two fixing bolts, remove the tank of a washing liquid and take him aside.

5. Disconnect ВВ a wire from a spark plug of the first cylinder, - pull only for a tip, and at all for a wire! It will be reasonable to take advantage of the special adaptation.
6. At presence near at hand a source of compressed air, take advantage of it for removal of dust from candle niches of the engine (for this purpose also the usual bicycle pump not is worse will approach).

 At use of compressed air do not forget to put on goggles!


7. Turn out a spark plug.

8. Verify the turned out candle with the identification card resulted more low, is will help at an estimation of the general condition of the engine.

Coal adjournment

Symptoms: soot Presence specifies in reenrichment of a toplivno-air mix or weak intensity of a spark. Causes ignition admissions, complicates start and leads to instability of work of the engine.

Recommendations: whether Check up the air cleaner is hammered, whether fuel level in поплавковой to the chamber is not too high, whether is jammed air заслонка and whether contacts are not too worn out. Try to use candles with longer insulator that raises resistibility to pollution.


Candle normal state


Symptoms: Gray-brown colour and easy deterioration of electrodes. The kalilnoe number of candles corresponds to type of the engine and its general condition.

Recommendations: At replacement of candles establish candles of the same type.


Замасливание


Symptoms: zamaslivanie candles it is caused by deterioration маслоотражательных caps. Oil gets to the combustion chamber through worn out directing valves or piston rings. Causes ignition admissions, complicates start and leads to instability of work of the engine.

Recommendations: Make a mechanical recovery work and replace candles.


Пеплообразование


Symptoms: Soft brownish colour of adjournment on one or both electrodes of a candle. A source of their formation are applied additives to oil and-or fuel. Excessive accumulation can lead to isolation of electrodes and cause admissions of ignition and astable work of the engine at acceleration.

Recommendations: At fast accumulation of adjournment change маслоотражательные caps that will prevent oil hit in combustion chambers. Try to replace fuel mark.


Overheat


Symptoms: the Porous, white insulator, erosion of electrodes and absence of any adjournment. Leads to reduction of service life of a candle.

Recommendations: whether Check up corresponds to requirements of Specifications калильное number of the established candles, whether the corner of an advancing of ignition is correctly exposed, whether too poor toplivno-air mix moves, whether there are no leaks of vacuum of the inlet pipeline and whether valves are jammed. Check up as level of a cooler and whether the radiator is corked.


Deterioration


Symptoms: the Rounding off of electrodes with a small congestion of adjournment on the working end. Colour normal. Leads to difficulty of start of the engine in cold damp weather and to increase of the expense of fuel.

Recommendations: Change candles on new, the same type.


Too early ignition


Symptoms: Electrodes are melted off. The insulator has white colour, but can be and is polluted owing to admissions of ignition or hit in chambers of combustion of extraneous particles. Can lead to an engine exit out of operation.

Recommendations: Check up калильное number of the established candles, a corner of an advancing of ignition, quality of a mix (whether it is not too impoverished), whether the system of cooling is corked and whether the greasing system normally functions.


Detonation


Symptoms: Insulators can appear chopped off or треснутыми. The inaccurate technics of adjustment of a candle backlash can result In insulator damage also. Can lead to damage of pistons.


Electrospending luster


Symptoms: the Insulator has yellowish colour and the polished kind. Speaks about sudden rise in temperature in combustion chambers at sharp acceleration. Usual adjournment are thus melted off, taking a form of a varnish covering. Leads to ignition admissions at high speeds of movement.

Recommendations: Replace candles (colder, at preservation of a manner of driving).


Забрызгивание

Symptoms: After admissions of ignition during a long time interval of adjournment can be loosened at preservation of working temperature in the combustion chamber. At high speeds of adjournment in flakes come off the piston and stick to a hot insulator, causing ignition admissions.

Recommendations: Replace candles or smooth out and establish into place the old.


Short circuit of electrodes


Symptoms: the Waste of products of combustion gets to interelectrode space. Firm adjournment accumulate, forming a crosspiece between electrodes. Leads to ignition refusal in the cylinder.

Recommendations: Remove adjournment from interelectrode space.


Mechanical damages

Symptoms: Can be caused hit of extraneous materials in the chamber of combustion or arise at piston blow about too long candle. Lead to refusal of functioning of the cylinder and to piston damage.

Recommendations: Remove from the engine extraneous particles and-or replace.


L models 3.0

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Disconnect a negative wire from the battery. Remove the battery with the holder.
2. Remove the inlet chamber of an air path in gathering with an air inlet sleeve.
3. Disconnect electroconducting from pumps of giving of a liquid of washing of glasses. On the models equipped with a screen wiper of back glass, disconnect a hose of a washer of back glass and закупорьте штуцерный a socket a suitable plug.
4. Turn out two fixing bolts, remove the tank of a washing liquid and take him aside.
5. Remove an air cleaner casing.
6. Disconnect electroconducting from the ignition coil.

7. Remove the ignition coil.

8. At presence near at hand a source of compressed air, take advantage of it for removal of dust from candle niches of the engine (for this purpose also the usual bicycle pump not is worse will approach).

 At use of compressed air do not forget to put on goggles!


9. Turn out a spark plug.

10. Verify the turned out candle with the identification card resulted on a photographic insert, is will help at an estimation of the general condition of the engine.

INSTALLATION

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Before to roll new candles, slightly grease their carving part with antitaking hermetic. Make sure available on a candle of a sealing washer. Manually acquire one of new candles in a corresponding aperture in the engine. Having made sure that the candle is not warped in a carving, tighten it with demanded effort (at presence near at hand динамометрического a key). At absence динамометрического a key screw a spark plug before contact of a sealing washer with a cylinder head, and then tighten for 1/4 ÷ 1/2 turns. For simplification of procedure наживления candles pull on its shaft a piece of a flexible fuel hose, - the probability of failure of a carving as at the slightest закусывании the hose will start to be turned simply is thus excluded.

2. On models 2.0 and 2.5 l vrashchatelno-progress plant tip ВВ of a wire on a spark plug shaft.

 Before to connect ВВ electroconducting estimate its condition (see more low). On l models 3.0 establish coils of ignition and connect to them electroconducting.

3. Repeat procedure for the remained spark plugs, carrying out all actions serially in order to avoid infringement of an order of ignition.
4. Establish ignition coils, - tighten fixing bolts with demanded effort.


Check of condition ВВ of electroconducting (model 2.0 and 2.5)

Check of resistance ВВ of wires

Wire of a candle of 1st cylinder: 5.6 ÷ 10.6 Ohm
Wire of a candle of 1st cylinder: 7.3 ÷ 13.7 Ohm

Wire of a candle of 1st cylinder: 5.9 ÷ 11.1 Ohm
Wire of a candle of 1st cylinder: 7.3 ÷ 13.7 Ohm


 PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Check of condition ВВ of electroconducting should be made without dependence from that, replacement of spark plugs was made, or not.
2. Check begins with external survey of isolation of wires at the working engine. Tyre out the car in a dark premise, start the engine and make sure of absence искрообразования on wires. Искрообразование is a sign of breakdown of isolation. Try not to touch moving components in an impellent compartment. Make necessary marks on replacement of defective wires, then allow to the engine to cool down.
3. Check of candle wires is made serially in order to avoid infringement of an order of their connection at assemblage. Usually on isolation of firm wires there are corresponding marks. In case of absence that, put it independently by means of an adhesive tape and a marker.
4. Disconnect ВВ a wire from a spark plug (is better take advantage of the special tool), - in which case do not pull for a wire, only for its tip.
5. Attentively examine internal walls of a tip. Corrosion is usually shown in the form of fragile коркообразного a touch of white colour.
6. Pull a tip back on a shaft of the candle, make sure of density of its landing. In case of need again remove a tip and turn in plugs in a rubber cover.
7. Pure rags wipe a wire on all its length, completely having removed from a surface of isolation dirt and greasing traces. Examine wire isolation on presence of cracks, traces прогара and other damages. Try not to bend a wire under acute angles in order to avoid infringement of integrity of veins of a conductor in isolation.
8. Check up a condition of contacts of wires from outside the ignition module, - again pull only for a tip.
9. Measure resistance of wires, compare results of measurements to standard requirements.
10. Replacement ВВ of electroconducting should be made the complete set, even in case of failure only one of wires.
11. Even at an excellent condition of system of ignition, at for start-up in crude weather there can be failures, - in case of need spray system elements влагопоглощающим a spray, - ask in shops of automobile accessories.
