Original Nissan Spark Plugs

You can’t start your Nissan without ignition. The factory spark plugs in your vehicle are what produce the flash that lights the air/fuel mix in your engine.

How Spark Plugs Work

They generate that by firing an arc of electricity across a gap between two leads. If your Nissan has a diesel engine, though, things are different. Rather than spark plugs, your engine uses glowplugs. These have a heating element in their tip. This element ignites the mist of fuel that gets sprayed into the engine's cylinder. The starter then needs less cranking time to start the engine. Whether equipped with spark plugs or glow plugs, your engine came with the original Nissan plugs that work best.

How to Spot Failing Spark Plugs

Signs of spark plug problems include:

• Your engine starts misfiring
• You experience unsteady idling
• You have trouble starting your vehicle
• Your "Check Engine" dash light comes on
