FWIW, I do carry a couple of spark plugs (used and re-gapped). If someone rolls, I figure one or two may get oil fouled. It
's easer to pop in a "refurbished" plug than it is to clean one soaked in oil. |

I am actually guilty of over-maintaining my vehicles. I have put less than 8000 miles on this TJ since I bought it. Checked the plugs a few months or so ago, looked fine, were originals as far as I can tell; and forgot about it.
I do oil changes, lube etc at 2500 miles- or before intervals. |

I never forgot that my dad never even got mad when I broke something like 5 out of the 8 spark plugs I begged to be allowed to install in his '62 Oldsmobile Starfire. I was probably 16 at the time. I'll try to remember that when my 14 year-old son does something like that.

Changed mine this weekend. 69.8K miles and they looked decent. A little rounded on the electrode tip but color was fine on all of them. The gap was consistant at .045 though. It does appear that the idle is a tad smoother now. For the $17 and 1/2 hour of liesurely garage time-it will be worth it.
