What will happen if i put spark plugs in my 1997 jeep cherokee with 217,131 miles on it?

yea. my jeep cherokee is a 1997, with 217,131 miles on it. i believe the spark plugs are bad on it cuz the engine churps a lil to get it started. i went to general mufflers and got the correct spark plugs; autolite 985.

just wondering if their is a setting to put them in at and if i need to change spark plug wires along with the spark plug change.

there should be a sticker in your engine bay that says the correct spark plug gap so you might need to buy a gapping pliers. Also a simple test for spark plug wire voltage leakage is at night start up the Jeep and spray a light mist of water on the wires and if you see %26quot;spiderweb%26quot; arcs they must be replaced

If you put in the right spark plugs and gap them properly, your engine will run better. New spark plug wires will help a bunch also. If the sticker hasn't been peeled off by now, there is usually a sticker under the hood somewhere that specifies spark plug gap, ignition timing, etc. Be careful to not crack the porcelain while putting in the plugs. It's kind of easy to do and the engine will run like crap.
