Spark Plugs
Hey Everyone.
I changed the spark plugs on my 740 Turbo and one of the spark plugs was deffective that i put in, it wasnt sparking, thus driving on 3 cylinders. What damage can this do, considering i was driving for approx 10mins in this condition until i was able to get back to my garage to fix the problem.
And now i have this clicking sound coming from the engine. Is it possbile that this threw off the timing of something?

RE: Spark Plugs
i use bosch or ngk conventional plugs, i have had nothing but trouble out of the platnium plugs. They work for a few months and then the platnium end falls out. I have had this problem several times so I will no longer use platnium plugs. If it has been awhile it is a good idea to change your plug wires and your cap and rotor too. If you have a lot of misfireing it can damage the catalytic converter but if it just a little you are ok.
