What if Spark plug gets deteriorated?
A spark plug is one of the essential components in the ignition system. The electrodes of the spark plug wear out due to repeated discharge of high voltage and corrosive oxidization due to combustion, causing the plug gap to gradually increase.
Generally it is recommended to replace the spark plug once in every 12000 kms, as it deteriorates by this time. Prolonged usage of such a spark plug will result in starting trouble, misfiring, lack of power and higher fuel consumption and emissions. In extreme cases, it might even leave you stranded with replacement as the only possible solution.
HGP Spark plugs are specifically designed for your Hero vehicle to ensure long lasting trouble free ride. For further assistance, kindly visit your nearest Authorised Workshop.
When should I replace Air Filter?
The Air Filter, filters the particles and dust in the intake air to protect the engine parts. It generally gets clogged over a period of time due to particles and dust over prolonged usage.
Hero MotoCorp vehicles basically have three different types of air filter, they are, Polyurethane wet type, Dry Paper and Viscous Paper type. The Polyurethane and dry paper filters require periodic cleaning. Polyurethane requires replacement once it is damaged where as Dry Paper Filter requires replacement once in every 12000 km. Viscous type does not require cleaning and replacement is recommended once in every 15000 km. More frequent cleaning or early replacement may be required when used in dusty condition.
If the recommended schedule is not followed, it may lead to lack of engine power, reduced fuel efficiency and premature engine failure resulting in expensive repairs.
Filtering capability may get affected by using a non - genuine air filter. There are many HGP look-alike filters available in the open market, which are inferior in quality. Such filters deteriorate under normal usage causing the filters to shrink, thus reducing their sealing capability. Use only HGP genuine air filter to ensure optimum engine performance and enhance life. For further assistance, kindly visit your nearest Authorised Workshop.
When should I change the Fuel Tube?
A Fuel Tube is a joint through which continuous flow of fuel takes place from the fuel tank to carburetor.
Generally 4 year is the average replacement time recommended for a fuel tube. In exceptional cases like unattended vehicle for over 6 months or more, fuel Hose need to be replaced.
A continuous flow of fuel deteriorates fuel tube due to high volatility of petrol internally and it starts leaking from fuel tube joints indicated by fuel smell.
HGP's fuel hose is made up of different layers of materials, which prevents deterioration against fuel internally and withstands different climatic conditions externally. It is recommended that both ends of the fuel tube are connected with a wire clip.

What would happen if I don’t change Engine oil?
Continual use of engine oil severely takes away its ability to 'lubricate' and 'clean', making it impossible to maintain normal engine functioning.
Generally, Engine Oil replacement should happen once in every 6000 kms with a top up at every 3000 kms.
If the above schedule is not followed, it may lead to poor performance and fuel economy indicated by engine overheating and an increase in noise levels. In extreme cases, it may eventually result in total engine failure leading to expensive and time consuming repairs.
The superior characteristics of HGP recommended 10W30 SJ JASO MA engine oil are:-
• Efficient lubricating, cleaning, cooling and sealing capabilities.
• Better cold starting ability
• Enhanced drain period
• Environment friendly
