Car only starts with mobile jump start or external starting. The battery is fully charged to 12.8V. The car is idling but won't start. The car has only been driven twice in the last two years and has been standing still. The spark plugs were changed two years ago. My friend also installed his one-year-old…
The engine in my 2005 1.6 Ford Focus is running rough, and the engine light is on. I replaced the very brittle ignition cables with OEM Bosch ones. However, the vehicle still runs rough. The problem is that when I moisten the cables and look at them in the dark, I can see sparks between…
Hello everyone, I tried to replace the ignition cables on my 1983 Mercedes W123 Coupé. Unfortunately, I was stupid enough to forget to label the cables before replacing them, and now I don't know which ignition cables go where. I'm attaching a picture of the engine compartment and would be very grateful if you could…
Hello, Recently my car was visited by a little animal that nibbled on an ignition cable. Anyway, I put in a new set and wanted to ask if they sit deep enough near the spark plug. Do not go in any further despite strong pressure
Hello, water and other things got into my ignition, and now everything is rusted. What needs to be replaced? (Ignition contact)
The following happened to me during my training in 1992: I was working for an elevator maintenance company, and we were called to the Catholic Radio station in Stuttgart because their elevator, which was about 20 years old, was working on and off. The technician checked everything but found nothing. We were standing in front…
Today is the fourth time in several weeks that the ignition cable connectors on my car have been disconnected (see photo). They were replaced just two weeks ago. What could be the cause? It wasn't a marten, as there were no bite marks… This is exactly how I found the engine compartment:
Today was the fourth time in several weeks that the ignition cable connectors on my car were no longer plugged in (see photo). They were replaced just two weeks ago. Could a marten really have removed these (not damaged them!)? And what can I do? This is exactly how I found the engine compartment:
Hello, I put a new spark plug in my Chinese 4-stroke moped (Barton Fr 50) because I thought the old one was no longer working, as nothing helped when the old one was still in there. It has oil and petrol. It actually has a spark too, since I was getting a spark plug. So…
Good morning everyone, Yesterday I discovered new marten damage… the third one this year already! What can I do about these creatures? I've already tried hairspray and a chain-link fence. It just annoys me, we still have our Audi RS6 and Peugot5008 GT here, but he always comes close to mine.
Hello everyone. I own a Honda XL185S (1983). The bike always used to start after the first kick. But now the ignition plug is broken. I "repaired" it with speaker cable, and it worked fine at first. Until it started jerking while I was driving and then the engine died. The lights and everything stayed…
Hello, It's a 6-year-old Fiesta (petrol, approx. 60,000 km) and it happens every few days. For example, this morning, after it had rained heavily overnight, I started the engine without any problems. The battery light didn't indicate anything unusual. Then after driving a few hundred meters, when I shifted into fourth gear, it became stubborn…
