The plugs are lined up as L1 T1 L2 T2
What do you guys think? They had about 30K miles on it, 37K on the car, they were changed during the first recall.

They look normal to me, the below plugs had 32,000 on them. They were pulled back in 2005. That engine went 110,000 miles before it was replaced.

Looks normal for the mileage.

How many miles did those plugs have left? I am just curious so I know when I should replace my next set. Any signs of misfire?
I just replaced my plugs/coils/plugs at 37K, car already felt smoother and quicker. It idles better too
Thanks

Not long, I would say another three thousand miles, tops, before you start losing performance.

Why would you put nasty crusty old plugs like that back in?
They had a long hard life and they are filthy, they need a good de-crusting if they are re-used and you will damage them in the process, trust me.
Tghey owe you nothing let them die a decent death.....

It's not for putting them back in the car, this is to gauge how long I have before changing the new plugs. Also I want to see what condition the motor is in

[Could you please help read my plug?
A stranger with a wrench will try to take your money! :lol:
Heheh.
The plugs look like they have given good service (tan-colored insulators) but are near the end of their service life (worn electrodes). Replace.
