Replacing them on schedule prevents that."},{"q":"Will new spark plugs improve fuel economy?","a":"Often yes. If your plugs were worn, fresh ones restore complete combustion, which usually smooths the idle, improves throttle response, and recovers lost fuel economy."},{"q":"Do you do this at my location?","a":"Yes \u2014 we bring the correct plugs and tools to your home or office and replace them on-site, typically in about an hour depending on engine layout."},{"q":"Do you check the ignition coils too?","a":"We inspect the coils and boots while we're replacing the plugs, since they share the same wear environment.
