CAR PARTS SKODA RAPID (NH3, NK3, NK6) 1.6 - Spark plugs

Spark plugs are used to ignite a mixture of fuel and air. They are designed to operate in harsh conditions and withstand high stress and pressure, as well as the cyclic difference between ambient temperature and 2000 ° C-2500 ° C and chemical corrosion from fuels and combustion products.

For optimum performance, the spark plug temperature must be between 500 ° C and 800 ° C. In this range, the spark plug operates in a self-cleaning cycle until the accumulated soot particles are completely burned.

Spark plugs must be suitable for the type of engine and must operate efficiently in a variety of, even the most demanding, operating conditions. As the temperature in the combustion chamber may vary depending on the engine, spark plugs with different thermal characteristics are used.
