Thank you so much 🙏. My Chevy Spark used to stall when switched to LPG mode with AC turned on, lot of misfire. Mechanics I visited never diagnosed and provided right solution 😭. Glad I watched your video 😀 and tested engine coil pack just the way you did, found fault with 4th valve/coil, hence replaced it with new coil pack. My Chevy Spark has become so smooth and back to normal ❤️. Thanks once again 🤗.

Hi Gary its a Chevy, its got the quick intake hose mod and the classic wast spark system. How strange that one of the coils would go up in smoke and the others is still good. Some advise, check all HT leads and spark plugs. Their might be a reason for one coil failure. Great video thanks for the info and have a great year.

My chevy spark has a problem..first of all when i am driving and when i apply clutch for gear shift i can hear RPM goes a little up like 1.5k something... What could be the reason for that ... And the other problem is that when it switches to lpg mode sometimes engine stalls and sometimes it goes smoothly
@vehiclemaintenanceandrepai3790

It sounds like it could be the accelerator cable sticking if it has a cable, some are electronic accelerator, in this case, clean the idle control valve, that could be why it cuts out in lpg mode.

There could be many contributing factors, such as faulty crank sensor, incorrect timing belt fitment, blocked fuel filters, dirty injectors, failing fuel pump, low compression, and the list goes on. I will check the fuel filter 1st, and make sure it is not dirty or blocked.

I’m so frustrated!!

Hi Desmond, thanks for the good wishes, sorry for your troubles, but it seems the car could be taking in too much air because the intake is not sealing correctly, hence the misfire and the high rev, have the guys check for leaks on the intake manifold, maybe the gasket is not sealing well or they may have mistakenly left off a vacuum pipe, or there may be a crack in the manifold, good luck.

The key is not coded to the ignition system, as the key has a chip in it, sometimes the coding goes out after the battery power was interrupted, or an electrical surge occurs, try your spare key 1st.

It is most likely sucking air due to the intake manifold leaking or you may be left an air pipe off, Palesa. Check it with some water in a spray bottle, by spraying it onto the inlet manifold where it joins onto the engine.

I do change the spark plugs first as most of the time your misfire comes from a dead parkply when you test the coil leads. Its a process of elimination really. I would go cheapest to most expensive replacement elimination process. Plugs, Leads, coil
@vehiclemaintenanceandrepai3790
2 жыл бұрын
Each car is different as you can see the Chevy Spark in the video requires one to remove the intake manifold to reach the spark plugs, so it makes sense to use the method I did for simple hassle-free diagnostics, I do agree with the method of elimination as that is what I base all my diagnoses on as it is common sense, thanks for your input Chriso it is greatly appreciated.
