About The Vixen Spark Plug Cleaner/Tester
The Vixen Spark Plug Cleaner and Tester is a machine designed to clean and test spark plugs, ensuring they are in good condition for optimal engine performance. Here's a breakdown of how it typically works:
- Cleaning: The machine uses a combination of compressed air and abrasive material to remove carbon deposits and other contaminants from the spark plug electrodes and insulator. This process helps restore the spark plug's efficiency and prolong its lifespan.
- Testing: After cleaning, the machine can test the spark plug to ensure it is functioning correctly. This usually involves simulating the conditions of the combustion chamber to see if the spark plug can generate a strong and consistent spark.
- Adjustments: Some models of spark plug cleaner and tester machines allow for adjustments to be made to the spark plug gap if necessary. This ensures that the spark plug is properly calibrated for the specific engine it will be used in.
Using a spark plug cleaner and tester can help save money by extending the life of spark plugs and ensuring that engines are running efficiently. It's a valuable tool for automotive technicians and enthusiasts who want to maintain their vehicles' performance.
