    I've read a few different opinions on how often spark plugs should be changed in the 5.7 Tundra. Some say every 60k but every 30k for best performance. Then there are those who say todays engines can go 100+k without being changed.

    The recommended iridium plug interval is 120K miles on the 4.6 and 5.7

    That kind of info is in the maintenance section of your owners manual.

    I changed out the plugs on my 07 at 98K. Plugs were still good. I changed out the plugs on my 14 at 105K. Still good. Actually my 07 manual stated 130K if I recall correctly.

    The lower half of page 523 has spark plug specs, but not service intervals. ;)
