A New way to identify original spark plug

Consumers are on the edge. Inflation is stealing our purchasing power. Our Naira is shrinking in value. The unsuspecting average consumer is plundered, and stepped on. Let me explain.

Some retailers are taking advantage of the already worsened situation to extort consumer. They sell inferior and counterfeit products for cheap price. 

This is a ploy to keep the consumer hooked on repeat buy. If you count the number of repeat buy for the same item without satisfaction, you will notice that you have spent four times above the amount for the original product. This can be painful.

Now, guess what! The tight economic situation occasioned by the Covid -19 pandemic, leaves no room for experimentation any longer. 

So, what do you do when your mechanic or a retailer says the spark plug s/he bought or selling to you is original? Tell them, great Job! But don’t take their word for it. Insist you take a second look at the sparkplug. This sounds interesting right?  Wait for the good part. 

There is a secret to identifying an original spark plug.

Original spark plug contains cooper core as against fake spark plug which is iron only

Copper is an excellent heat conductor. High temperature heat is quickly dissipated away from the center-electrode to prevent melt down.

Absence of a copper-core center electrode however results in poor heat dissipation capability and prolonged use causes power loss due to excessive heat buildup. This results in melt down of the ground electrode, eventually leading to serious engine damage.

To avoid engine damage, always insist on using original spark plugs. We have brand new, quality Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) maintenance parts, sold at affordable prices.Call us on 090 6239 6062 to order your OEM parts OR visit Total Service Station closest to you.

AVOID TOKUNBO

This wasn’t the plan. The coronavirus pandemic has changed the dynamics. Earlier in the year, we had planned to replace our vehicles with new and better ones. “No wahala”! This will still happen before the end of the year. 

While we wait for things to improve, maintaining our current vehicles to serve us longer should be utmost in our minds. In doing this, opting for genuine and original spare parts as against tokunbo spare parts should naturally come to mind for the obvious reasons—saving cost and stress.

If you continue to use tokunbo parts, what you fail to understand is that the tokunbo parts you happily purchase for your vehicle have been used for several years and now unfit for use. Put them in your vehicle, “two seconds, everything burst”! 

You see, replacing them will even cost you more time, energy and money. Don’t forget the “gbas gbos” you are likely to encounter with your mechanic. 

As you carry out checks on your vehicle, there could be a need to change certain damaged maintenance parts. Avoid choosing inferior or tokunbo parts over quality.
