Well, I was a little bad and I let the stock plugs and wires go for 81000. All was running fine and I never had the time to replace, eenthough I had plug and wire in the garage. anyways, he car ran for about a week with a very nasty stumble and lack of power. I replaced the plugs and wire with apidfires and Taylor spiral Pros. All seems to be great now.
What I want to know is was there any damageI should be looking for due to the week of stumble?
thanks for any and all help.

on a side note, three of the plugs broke when removed, two wires broke. Next time I will not let go so long.

I owuldn't worry about it too much... Nothing you coudl really do, maybe put a little stress on the crank and connecting rods but I doubt your severely hurt anything...

IF you jsut keep up with things on cars in the long run you generally save money. Sometimes when things go out they start taking out other things. Also a nice running car usualy gets beter mileage, I magine your gas mileage was pretty bad on those old plugs.

I wouldnt be too concerned with that week of stumble, i had a few days where my car had the same issue. It was fine once i got the problem fixed.
