Abstract: . Product and its uses The steep increase in the price of petrol and the increase in the number of petrol vehicles on road day by day have forced us to make the optimum utilisation of even a drop of petrol so as to get maximum mileage per litre. Apart from having other precautions which 'may not be occurring at short intervals of running of the engine, it is recommended to have the spark plugs which produce the spark for igniting the fuel, to be regularly cleaned and tested for its efficiency after every 1,000 KM normal run of the vehicle. Because of the fact that during running of the engine a lot of carbon gets accumulated on the electrode sparking the fuel, the intensity of the spark gets diminished and therefore the complete combustion of the fuel does not occur, thereby resulting in loss of kilometre per litre of fuel consumed by the engine. Until a few years ago the method employed in the cleaning and testing of spark plugs for its efficiency was very crude in the sense that the cleaning work used to be done by scratching the carbon with the help of a pointed needle or blade and cleaning by a cloth. Since we can no more depend upon approximate methods because of the increased price of the fuel, the use of mechanised methods for cleaning as well as testing of the spark plug so as to know that intensity of the spark developed is optimum has become essential and therefore we find that the use of spark plug cleaning-cum-testing machine i: getting popular day by day.
