My car is 2000 Camry LE with 62k miles. I plan to have 60k maintenance. But
the maintenance list from dealer doesn't include changing spark. I am
wondering when I should change them and what symptom before they break.
Thanks!

Spark plugs you mean, they wear not break and 60000 is overdue for me

Fine but my platinum plugs in my 99 Camry 6 cyl. are coming up to that
60,000 miles marker and I notice no decrease in performance. Any problems
with delaying their replacement? Someone mentioned, offline, that the plugs
could get "seized" into the block if left in too long!! Go figure.
