one time me and bro buy plug tire for gen, na only God fit help about plug for this naija. Even the original na still fake.

These days, the only way to know original is when you've used it.
A spark plug in a generator is suppose to last at least 1 month of daily usage but after one week you have to heat it for the gen to start.

Bros, are you sure the plug is the issue? When you scan your car you will surely know of the plugs are bad. It will bring codes like P0301.... p0304/P0306 for 4/6 cylinder engines respectively

Sometimes this codes are not thrown yet the engine will be misfiring.

It has nothing to do with plug then
There are many reasons for misfiring engine

Every car has its own specific spark plugs. The era of tiny and big plug is over. Look out for the number or go to Amazon and you will get the correct number for your car. There are fakes in the market for the original plugs, so it is lose lose situation

The correct spark plug is written on the emissions sticker on the inside of the bonnet near the latch

But getting the original one is tricky, because even the dealers can't tell the difference between the original and a fake

Someone here commented that he got a fake one from Amazon... Fear come catch me oo

Guy most cars in Nigeria are using fake plugs and they are driving fine. I have never had any plug issue with my Camry cars after 9 years

Amazon will never sell fake items. If they tell you that your corolla plugs can cost you 70k to bring down would you be ready to pay?

If you use the recommended plugs a v6 engine don't be surprised that you may even consume less fuel compare with a corolla with a fake plug.

The choice is now yours; buy original and never buy another plug still you get tired of your car or buy fake 2k and burn more fuel and damage your engine.

It hardly happens.
I don't think it is the cause of your engine misfire.
My cars and most Nigerian cars engine would have easily gone for good.

I will advise everyone to visit Mandilas in Ebute meta and Simpson Street. All the original plugs are there

It is firing like a lion under my hood, no problem of spark plugs since then till date.

Go online read about the signs you will see to know a particular brand of plug you need to buy is original and follow it without letting yourself be told otherwise by these deceptive vendors.

You can’t get genuine NGK, DENSO or Bosch plugs for less than 8k in today’s economy. Even since last year you can’t.
