This is THE BEST and detailed explanation. From this video, I learned that I DO need to change my spark plugs! Will do!

[@captaincurd2681]

Yes.

[@jonathanbahena]

Straight to the point no bs! I’m pretty sure now my car needs a tune up. Very helpful video. Thanks!

[@longnguyen-zu1qe]

❤ The best way to find out is in morning easy start and no shaking engine.Once engine warm go on highway at slow to high speed should not have lazy acceleration.😅😊😊😊😊

[@Bigfellr]

What about when you stop at a light then accelerate the truck shakes

[@Brandonkf]

In a small 4 cylinder hat would've noticed at all man

[@alexprinsrealestateagent1263]

My car just hit 90,000 miles and I’m having all these issues! Time to get new spark plugs! Thanks for the video!!!

[@NQBN]

Awesome explanation. You convinced me and I changed my spark plugs.

[@FAIROOZBANNAPK]

Awesome explanation. You convinced me I am going to change my CAr's spark plugs soon...

[@steelcitycaprice.899]

I had some of these symptoms and although I dont have the misfire I can tell it doesn't have the get up and go that it use to so it made me think to look at my mileage and at 65 when purchased it's now 136 so most likely plugs and injectors are original. 🙄 great post👍🏾😎

[@yogrards]

Dude. This was. PERFECT explanation video. Major props 👏🏽 🙌🏼 👌🏽

[@fireboy5043]

Great Content Bro Glad to know i just got Normal wear in Tear after 150,000 miles

[@nevinkuser9892]

I unknowingly bought fake spark plugs online. They were too cheap, that's the only way to know ahead of time. Really messed up my engine performance. Bucking, rough idle, poor acceleration, and red hot exhaust pipe. If you experience any of this, buy a better set immediately!! I paid 5x more to buy authentic iridium plugs after that experience! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Knockoff spark plugs can really screw up your ride!!! 😭😭😭 I changed my fuel pump, injectors, coils, clutch, harmonic balancer, and motor mounts. The shaking still didn't stop! I had just replaced my spark plugs so I didn't even consider it. I hope these evil people preying on unknowing victims selling fake sh*t disappear off the face of the earth. 💯

[@teriipearson5331]

Changed spark plugs. Car no longer lags in 3rd and 4th gear up little incline.

[@elroco4827]

I’m at 133k miles on my 2013 Ram 1500 Hemi. Runs like a champ but I’m starting to feel some vibration as I sit idle while truck running. Not a bad vibration, but I feel a vibration. Changing plugs and coils this weekend

[@richellebarriault1739]

I had engine light come on flashing turned out to be knocking sensor and replacing spark plugs were recommended at same time

[@ninja01000]

my car has one of the symptoms .. when i press the acceleration i fell its lacking normal push they told me try changing the plug spark .......what do think?! that's why i asked you if you plz upload video showing how. i have 2015 corolla

[@Jahzwolf1955]

I need to pull my spark plug out of a misfiring cylinder. I can see thr wear one can get over time I still don't see how a coil could wear.

[@randomrandy3059]

My 2000 Honda civic had a studdaring feel and weak acceleration scanned P0302. So I changed the spark plugs but the symptom still there. Could it be because I didn’t change the hoses?

[@randomrandy3059]

You mention the coil? Also the civic is at 193,000

[@LightsaberGoBrrrrrr]

Almost definitely the ignition coil. Use a scanner - see which P300 code comes up. Say it comes up as P301. That means cylinder one is misfiring. Take that ignition coil out and switch it with another coil. If the “miss follows” to the other cylinder (which you can tell using your scanner again) then that’s a bad coil. If the misfire stays on the same cylinder it’s likely a bad/clogged fuel injector. But it’s almost always the coil. And thankfully, because it’s a much simpler fox

@@randomrandy3059 I’m also having acceleration problems with my 1995 Honda Civic what do you mean by cables fixed your issue?

[@ecgodsmack86]

Do you have a video on symptoms of bad fuel pump?

[@Top5AutoRepairs]

Yes

[@clendonrobinson6867]

I changed plugs and coils now sounds a little different and rides rough. Any help out there?

[@K1ngfast24]

Thanks bud !

[@davidweum]

I put in top of the spark plus. They worked Lithium I think

[@hiramcastillo7137]

Ignition coil does have the same symptoms?

[@Top5AutoRepairs]

Yes.

Thank you

When stopped at a stop sign my 2003 honda civic tends to rev up as I push the gas. It eventually goes, but sometimes it feels like i have to floor it. It just started the other day smh.

[@script2438]

Update: I just needed some transmission fluid.

[@tomaszuniga4332]

My 2009 Honda civic will not go above 3500 RPM

[@musicfashionstyle4251]

My car have hard start. So, you think that it's spark plugs.

[@Mrfurballs]

tune up time

[@terrellscaife2411]

Ok

[@simpleKyle]

5:09 C'mon, dude. That hasn't been a thing for the Triton modular engines since the 2003 models. If you can come across an engine that actually has that issue then the truck that it's in probably has less than 10k and is hidden in a barn or something.lol

[@monkeyking-self-proclaimed7050]

[@MeySaelee]

Hello there, I'm watching your video I'm trying to learn how to do a spark plugs myself Lol, oh man I might fail 😂😂

[@Top5AutoRepairs]

You can do it!

[@MeySaelee]

I will try thank you 🙂

[@RezaDerrar]

My car Hyundai i10 was misfiring, l took it to 3 garages in London, they told me is the timing chain, one of the garages have changed the timing chain but the problem didn't go away, l took it back again, they said the chain fell, so after putting it back again, it looked as if they fix it because my car was not idling. The next day rough idling and shaking was back again, although they changed the oil, camshaft, iac, air filter, spark plagues, they have also cleaned the throttle body and checked for vacuum air, the problem wouldn't go away plus my car is consuming a lot of fuel. The car is fine the First 2 to 4 miles and then it rough idle is back again where do you they should check next, it has been already 3 weeks?

[@JoseHerrera-mk7cv]

Thank You brother 👍

[@Sunshineflowers837]

Thank you your video is so helpful. I have a 2014 Kia Sorrento and everything your name me I’m having the problem with my car and I took it to Christian brothers and they told me it’s nothing wrong with my suv . But after watching your video, I need a tuneup/new spark plugs thank you so much again.

Excellent video sir! My 2012 Camry is making ticking sound, cold and warm. Could it be a loose sparkplug? Put Densos in 20K ago. Thanks!
