Have done some maintenance work on it (belts, hoses, tires, timing belt) It was running fine, drove it on a 260 mile trip with no problems and also drive it across town to work a few days a week. One morning however it would not start, I checked the spark plugs that were less than a year old and they were very dark, I replace them with a new set and the car cranked right up. drove it for 2-4 weeks and it happened again, would not start, changed plugs again and the car ran for another 2-4 weeks untill the plugs fouled again I think with fuel.Have taken the car to 2 different mechanics but they are unable to run proper diagnostics on it and would not work on it. Any ideas? thanks.

Parts stores like Autozone will usually read them for free. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. saxon21 New User May 23, 2019, 2:41 PM Post #5 of 5 (1020 views) Re: Daewoo fouling spark plugs Sign In Ok thanks, I'll get back.   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
