Age of sparkplugs??
I bought my Insight with 170K on the clock. It was running like a top and now at 210K it is still running great. Maybe even better than it was 2 years ago. I am getting 67mpg in town and much better on the highway.
As an engineer my general inclination is "If it aint broke, dont fix it." So I have never pulled the plugs to look at them. There is no need to, I reason.
But after 40K miles and "who knows how many before I bought it" I wonder if there is some lifetime to consider with these special plugs. Or do I just run them till mileage shows a decline and check them then?
