Installing a completely new pair of spark plugs to your vehicle may not be the answer for the questions like drivability, emission problems, but it can act as an iimprovising agent in many of the cases. New spark plugs can limit the hydrocarbon emission upto several hundred parts per million, which can act as point of difference between getting through or failing in the emission test. It can improve cold starting & it minimizes the risk of a catalytic converter failure.

Ultimate performance of the vehicle depends upon the type of vehicle, for the purpose of its design, but the innovations in technology of the spark plugs can enhance the performance of the vehicle to its best and reduce the fuel consumption to its minimum.

Over the years, Bosch has pioneered in the technology of making spark plugs from copper to platinum & iridium-the spark plugs of the day help the vehicle to deliver its best, also making it a fuel-efficient. Bosch made its first spark plug more than 100 years back from now and patented it in the year 1902.

It was a reliable ignition system for the engines with ever-increasing speeds, which according to Carl Benz, a pioneer in internal combustion engine, stated as problem of all problems in early automotive history. The industrialization of the vehicle manufacture along with the spark plug brought about a massive increase in production, resulting in lowering the cost and affordability of vehicles.

Since its inception, the invention has made a steady progress and played a huge part in developing economical, cleaner vehicles with more proficient fuel burning system. Bosch has been a leading name in supplying premium spark plugs for the vehicle manufacturers and for there after market.

Spark plug has a job to ignite the air fuel mixture, which results in production of energy for cars movement after its continuous use. Over a period, it begins to wear between the electrodes.

According to Reid Smith, product manager for the spark plug for Robert Bosch LLC, with the increase in this wear increases stress on the ignition system. It can prevent the ignition of the air fuel mixture efficiently. This in turn can make the performance and gas mileage drop. Dirty spark plugs can lead on to misfiring and inefficient combustion, resulting in fuel wastage.

Bosch has traveled a long way for meeting the ever-increasing demand for effectiveness and performance. It in result has improvised & stretched out whole of its production lineup to suit every day needs of a common driver.

According to Mr. Smith, Boschs’ new technology of Platinum Ir fusion is the only spark plug in the industry that has iridium and platinum in a patented fused fine wire center electrode design. Platinum electrode heats up earlier compared to the customary electrode and allows efficient and smoother running in cold starts and it offers a long duration of service because of a special design; triple electrode plugs.

On road test of the platinum Ir fusion claims that it requires low voltage for ignition, giving an improved and reliable performance and longer service life. According to Mr. Smith, fusion will be available for all the domestic and imported vehicles.81279
