Sparkplugs?

[Hankal]

Changed sparkplugs in July 2001, Fly 200 hours a year.
At the last 100 hour inspection my AP had to clean the plugs and regapp them.
What is the life of a sparkplug in a 360 Lycoming?
Would ask my AP but he is out of town until the middle of July.
My annual is due in july and I would like to have the plugs in my bag if I need
them.

Sorry about that.

Hank,
This is normal. About 400 hours for a set of Massive Electrode is pretty
good. Fine Wire should last to TBO.

I usually get about 600 hrs. out of a set in my O-360. After that,
the center electrode starts looking like a football (American football
for you Int'l folks)

I think I better order a set from Airplanespruce just to have on hand if my AP
decides I need them.
