I have a 2000 Mazda Protege SE, two questions as follows:
How often do you need to replace spark plugs?
Also, when do you need to replace wires?

The factory recommendation on the plugs is 30,000 miles but they don't put a number on the wires. generally a good set of wires that no oil has leaked on will last about 60 to 70K
