Please help.

I have a 2001 se-v6 crew cab. I have 88k miles on the truck, and I realize that spark plugs are usually replaced at 105k. This truck has low milage, but it is 10 years old. Under normal driving condition, it would have 120k to 150k and the sparks would have been replaced. At this point, the truck is not running as smooth as it use to. Should I replace the sparks or wait for milage?

If you do a lot of short trips, it would not hurt to change
them. There are other things to be considered also, genuine
Nissan oil impregnated air filter, fuel filter, dist. cap
and rotor, throttle cleaning, eng. ground clean and
tighten. Did I mention the importance of using GENUINE
NISSAN PARTS?
