I know better than to post without pictures and I've been to busy to get the pics taken and loaded on the computer. Finally did that today. I got a catch can and spark plug from Moe's a few weeks ago. I got the catch can on two weeks ago and did the plugs last weekend. I've put just over 1000 miles on since the catch can and emptied it today. Yuck. I should have done this right after I bought my Ram. The truck was a couple hundred miles over 32,000 when I changed the plugs. I was surprised at how little wear there was. I think I might wait until I get 40,000 miles on these before changing them. I know I've seen some pics of plugs before, but I can't remember how worn they were. I'm not sure if just having that little wear is normal or if it's because I drive mainly highway miles.

Congrats on the upgrade and plugs. That catch can pays for it's self the first time you empty it in my opinion.

IMO plugs should be changed every 30k just to make sure your engine is burning everything good and also for those that want the better mpg.

It always feels good to have a fresh set of plugs in the truck, and knowing that all that oil will not be building up in your intake manifold anymore.
