  • This is the process of diagnosing a code PO302 Cylinder #2 Misfire. Cyl #2 spark plug ground electrode broke off inside the cylinder then flies out during start up. The piece could have caused serious engine damage if it did not come flying out the hole @ 5:20 Seconds into the video. Point always do a visual inspection on your wires and spark plug first if you have a misfire code, Stay encouraged put Jesus Christ first God Bless.

    This guy is a genius. I saw the piece fly out. Wow. It could have ruined the car. I want a mechanic like this. :) I just pulled out an AC Delco Iridium spark plug, missing almost half of the inner porcelain insulator - one side cracked off, extending pretty far inside. Had to be a pretty big piece. Lots of buildup means it happened long ago, and it was still firing in some way ever since. Replaced that one, just cleaned the rest, removing lots of white crusty buildup, which I think is from bad valve stem guide seals letting oil into the combustion chamber, and the oil residue gets slowly burned in place and crustified. Reminds me of hard water deposits on plumbing. (Runs better now) If anyone knows what these very thick, white, mineral-like deposits on iridium spark plugs are, I'd love to hear back.

    Two things, that negative tip either breaks or it corrodes & burns off. Dealership has always done the plug replacements on my car when it was under warranty. Last time they did it, they failed to torque the plugs properly. I had one plug in Cylinder 1eventually back out of the spark plug port from vibration and being insufficiently torqued. Reading the plugs for appearane, I would've never thought it got that hot & lean in there to melt & burn a piece of steel like that, but it will.
    I did all these steps, first the magnet and blind fishing to see if the piece of steel was in there still. I got nothing to blow out that was a solid piece of steel. I think these steps have to be done to get any debris out, whether it's the steel or whether it's the corroded and rusted thing that the negative electrode would eventually become. The valves don't open much to get a larger piece out, but smaller particles may go out the exhaust port.
    Anyway, my Fiat 500 is running too smooth for anything to be in there. The new plugs need a few miles to settle in, and the car doesn't smoke from excessive oil burning & has plenty of power. So the compression rings. oil control rings & cylinder walls seem to be fine for a car that is past warranty mileage. The valves & head aren't damaged either, or I'd get burning oil smoke as leakage out the exhaust pipe too. I feel like I dodged a catastrophe here. Moral of the story is change the plugs often enough before they fail like this. You shouldn't have to, but I also recommend a periodic plug check & torque if necessary. Those that drive 20-30K miles every year probably just replace the copper core plugs, the platinum & iridium plugs, should still be checked. If the ceramic is showing signs of burn. The spark plug can fail inside the ceramic too. Even the positive electrode can melt & burn.

      Yep, mine runs fine too. Car better run better with new plugs, when the new one's are gapped properly & no cylinder damage. But here we are in the Biden-Harris Fuel Crisis of 2021, no gasoline at the pumps, no go. Think they want people to give up their gasoline for electric vehicles, it's the agenda of the D's.

    I have a bitch of a problem. Threads had got cross threaded, so I got the kit to fix it. You bore out hole and then tap and die a new thread, then put an insert in hole, and spark plug makes it tight. My GOOD buddy was torquing with insert and knocked it down into cylinder hole. So even if I could grab it, it is a very tight fit.

      I'm late to the party but this link has a suggestion: www.ngk-sparkplugs.jp/english/techinfo/troubleshooting/10/index.html
      I also theorize that if anti-seize is used then that could allow for over torque situations which would cause the plug to protrude far enough into the cylinder that the piston touches the electrode.

      The inner porcelain of a NGK plug with 110k on it just snapped in half inside of the cylinder of a 1.5L Honda Fit. Noticed that this plug was not fully tightened by at least 1 full thread, all others were tight. Im wondering if it wasn’t tightened fully from the factory and combustion vibrations may have caused the failure after 10 yrs? . Tomorrow’s fun, removing exhaust to investigate inside exhaust valve chamber, because after multiple cylinder purges and visuals, I still have some “tinging” noise while running and I’m picturing debris hanging out around the exhaust valves?? Will the engine survive? Bent rod? Damaged valves? And then if so, will she pass the next emissions test? I have the eerie feeling that I’m gonna be pulling a head for valve replacement or the engine for a bent rod!!!! This really bites the big one!!!🤨
