Spark plugs and ignition coils: misfire basics

A misfire feels like a stumble, shake or loss of power.

Intervals

Iridium plugs: about 100,000 km. Copper plugs: 30,000 km.

Coils

Coils fail with heat and age. One bad coil causes a misfire on one cylinder.

Don't ignore it

Unburnt fuel overheats and ruins the catalytic converter.
