insufficient lubrication
- One of the key features of E3 spark plugs is their unique DiamondFire electrode design. This design allows for better ignition of the air-fuel mixture in the engine, resulting in more efficient combustion and improved power output. The DiamondFire electrode also reduces carbon buildup and fouling, leading to cleaner engine operation and longer plug life.
Seals, including oil seals, have undergone a great development in recent years and are totally unlike the original product. PTFE has taken over the oil seals market for modern engines mainly because traditional oil seals started causing more and more problems. Such as evaporation of chemical plasticisers from the elastomeric material, which eventually caused engine oil leakage. Now, the focus is more on durability and frequency of servicing.
Silicone Oil Seals - Designed to absorb lubricants in order to lessen wear and friction, silicone rotary shafts also offer high thermal resistance and a large temperature range. But, they do not handle abrasions well or interact with oxidized oils.
Free the cover by levering gently round the edge with a screwdriver; take care not to bend the flange.
Remove the distributor cap . Before removing the distributor (See Removing and refitting the distributor ), mark the position of the rotor arm so that you can refit it just as it was.
