A Surprise Under the Bonnet at Pellon Tyres: The Honda Jazz with Eight Spark Plugs
One of our frequent clients recently brought their dependable little Honda Jazz into Pellon Tyres for a standard servicing. I’ve seen my share of oddball automotive features, but this one really took me by surprise. We made the startling discovery that this small car utilises *eight* spark plugs instead of the typical four when we climbed under the bonnet to change the spark plugs. Yes, you read correctly! This small, useful runabout has eight spark plugs hidden in its engine.
This naturally caught my attention, and I felt it would be a fantastic small piece to share with all of you. Let’s examine the history of this enduringly popular car and discover why the Honda Jazz requires twice as many spark plugs as the majority of compact cars.
The Honda Jazz Has Eight Spark Plugs: Why? Honda Jazz With 8 Spark Plugs
For those who are perplexed by the idea that a car as small as the Jazz needs eight spark plugs, Honda’s inventive engineering provides the solution. Honda’s i-DSI (intelligent dual sequential ignition) engine powered the Jazz that we worked on. Instead of using a single spark plug per cylinder, this ingenious little system employs two. Why? Enhancing performance, reducing emissions, and increasing fuel efficiency are the key factors.
The engine’s fuel-air mixture can burn more thoroughly thanks to the dual-ignition system. In essence, the gasoline burns more efficiently because both spark plugs ignite in precisely the right order. Given the current fuel prices, this not only makes the engine run more smoothly but also improves fuel efficiency, which every Jazz owner will value!
Although this technology was revolutionary when it was first developed, it also means that maintenance is a little more involved. It takes a little longer (and costs a little more for parts) to replace eight spark plugs rather than four, but it’s all necessary to maintain this ingenious little engine operating the way Honda intended.
A Synopsis of the Honda Jazz’s Past – Honda Jazz With 8 Spark Plugs
Since it first came to the UK in 2002, the Honda Jazz—also referred to as the Honda Fit in other parts of the world—has been a common sight on the roads. But its origins are a little more ancient. Although the Jazz brand was first used on a Honda vehicle in the early 1980s, the current model really took off in the twenty-first century.
The Jazz established a reputation as a dependable and useful supermini right away. Its amazing interior size was (and remains) its most notable feature. For a car of its size, the inside is surprisingly spacious and adaptable thanks to Honda’s “Magic Seats” system, which enables the back seats to fold entirely flat or flip up like movie seats.
It’s easy to understand why Halifax drivers have come to love the Jazz over the years. It is small enough to easily manoeuvre through our winding streets while still providing plenty of space for passengers, shopping, and even the occasional trip to the tip. The Jazz has established itself as a trustworthy and effective little worker, whether you’re driving up the Calder Valley or speeding around town.
The Jazz (2007–2014) second-generation model is the one we serviced. Thanks in part to its ingenious dual-ignition engine, this iteration increased fuel efficiency and added a little more refinement to the original’s success.

I couldn’t help but consider how appropriate the Jazz are for our community. Its practical design and ingenious engineering make it the ideal vehicle for Halifax’s blend of urban and rural areas. Whether you’re traversing the undulating hills of the Shibden Valley or scaling the steep inclines of Wainhouse Tower, the Jazz is more than capable.
Over the years, Pellon Tyres has seen a wide variety of cars pass through our doors, but working on a car like the Jazz has a certain allure. It serves as a reminder of how advanced automobile technology has become and how automakers like Honda are still coming up with new ideas for even the smallest vehicles.
Concluding Remarks
Examining its eight spark plugs revealed that the Honda Jazz boasts more features than its modest appearance. It’s an excellent illustration of Honda’s inventiveness and the reason the Jazz has stayed so well-liked by drivers in Halifax and beyond.
Remember to follow your car’s maintenance schedule whether you’re the proud owner of a Honda Jazz or any other smart tiny vehicle. And since we enjoy a good surprise, bring your car down to Pellon Tyres if you’re ever unsure about what’s under the hood!
