People will get old, and cars will get old. People will age first from the skin. In the same way, when cars get old, they will age first from various parts. Our car has been driven for a certain number of kilometers, and many parts will gradually wear out and age. Some aging parts will not only affect the performance of the vehicle but even affect our personal safety. Therefore, it is important to detect aging parts in time and to repair and replace them. Today we will talk about what to do if the wearable part of the car ignition coil is aging.
The ignition coil, as the name suggests, is an ignition device, which is the core component of the automobile ignition system, also called the high-voltage package. The power source of the car engine is the combustion of the mixture in the cylinder, and the energy to ignite the mixture is transmitted by the ignition coil, but the spark plug is directly transmitted, but the ignition coil is also indispensable. If the ignition coil is aging or faulty, the spark plug will not work, and then the mixture of this cylinder will not be able to burn. After the vehicle loses the power of one cylinder, the natural performance will be greatly reduced.
The car ignition coil also has a service life, which can generally be used for 100,000 kilometers, or even longer if the vehicle is in good road conditions. Of course, this 100,000 kilometers is not the replacement cycle of the automobile ignition coil. Usually, as long as there is no abnormality in the ignition coil, there is no need to replace it, as long as the daily maintenance is done. But when the ignition coil shows age or has failed, it needs to be replaced.
The easiest way to judge the aging of the ignition coil is to open the engine compartment and directly observe the surface of the ignition coil for signs of ablation, bursting, flue spillage, etc. Different cars have different designs of ignition coils. They are generally located on the right side of the engine, some are located above the engine, and some are designed independently. Generally, you can also judge whether the ignition coil is aging. In addition, when the aging of the ignition coil is more serious, there will be a lack of cylinders, insufficient power, difficulty in the ignition, and there may be an engine failure alarm.
If one of the ignition coils is aging and the other three cylinders can still work normally, there is no problem in driving reluctantly, but it is better to replace the aging coil as soon as possible to avoid adverse effects on the engine and other components. In addition, it is necessary to find out the cause of the abnormality, whether it is normal aging or other parts are damaged or some maintenance work is not done enough. Because the spark plug gap is too large and the gasoline quality is not good, it will also affect the service life of the ignition coil.
If multiple ignition coils are deteriorating, it may be best to replace them all. If multiple ignition coils are damaged, the car engine will vibrate abnormally. Just like driving a tractor, the fuel supply is weak, and the high-end gear cannot be moved up, which may easily lead to the flameout and even the car cannot be started. In this case, the ignition coils need to be replaced. To ensure the normal use of the car, but also to protect personal safety.
As an important part of the car, the ignition coil should be well maintained at ordinary times to prolong the service life. It is necessary to learn to check, clean, and fasten the line connectors frequently to avoid short circuits; it is also necessary to prevent the ignition coil from getting wet, so the moisture on the coil is only Can be wiped dry with a cloth to avoid damage to the ignition coil. As a component that is easy to wear, it is normal to have aging after a certain period of time and travel, and it can be replaced in time.
