I changed mine at about 1000 miles just because I bought the Irridium plug.... I have over 3000 miles on that new plug.

The part nubmer for the 660 motor...

NGK
Iridium Plug
DPR8EIX-9

I think they were around $8.00 each.

To my understanding it will last longer than a regular plug, Lower Fuel Consumption and Improve ignition efficiency to give you more power.
