2.Engine Sputtering or Misfiring

An engine that sputters or misfires is a sign that something is wrong with the fuel or ignition system. Engines rely on a precise mixture of air and fuel to function smoothly, and if the components in the fuel and ignition systems aren’t working properly, the engine can sputter. To prevent this, be sure to replace fuel and ignition parts according to your vehicle's maintenance schedule, and address any issues as soon as they arise.
