30,000 miles on Champions
Started skipping around at idle.
Checked and had 30,000 miles on my plugs.
Put in a set of NGK FR4 (5155).
After over 60 years of using primarily Champions thought I'd try NGK.

Just an update.
I had a occasionally rough idle and then it started idling around 1500 RPM or a little more and check engine light came on.
Code reader said multi misfires & No. 6 misfire, high idle.
Plugs took care of the misfire but not the idle speed.
Replaced the lifetime AIC Auto-Zone valve with an Borg-Warner one. All is well so far.
Didn't check for blown plenum gasket but uses about 1/4 of an inch of oil on the dipstick in 8000+ miles.
