Overdue is more like it. I put 92,000 miles on the original plugs and 117,000 on these plugs. Truck was still running strong and all 16 plugs looked normal, just a tad wore out. I went back with Champion Platinum Power 3570. Next time I change them hopefully it will be with a new motor.

So much for not using Platinum in the Hemi's. Yours seemed to like them just fine.

Why so long on the plugs?

Because there are so damn many of them and I'm no spring chicken!! LOL!! Takes me a few hours to do and I figure as long as she's running fine, why go through the trouble and expense.

I also pulled the throttle body and clean it as well. It seems to be pulling oil through the crank vent tube so I got a separate air filter for it.
