Line Up and Wait
I bought my C-150L in mid-2010 and about 800 tach hours have accumulated since then. The last 400 tach hours have been put on exclusively by me, and that includes aggressively leaning during taxi and cruise. When I purchased the airplane the plugs had a few hundred hours on them already. Up until recently the engine would fire up within 1 1/2 turns of the prop every time when cold (2-3 when hot). Lately it takes just a bit more. Fuel consumption remains steady at 4.7-4.9gph tach (I fly conservatively, aggressive doesn't go far in a 150).
The plugs have looked good at the last few inspections.
My question, is a little over 1000 hours a lot on a set of massives? And what is a typical number of hours until a change of plugs is called for?
