Spark plugs in the 2000 Ranger I just got. 80k and the plugs have never been changed. Gaps on the old plugs was over 100tho. Had to also change plug wires as the original were stuck solid to the old plugs. Had to rip them off.
Welcome Airjam. I noticed it was your first post. 

That is common. The original plugs were supposed to be good for 100k. I changed them out at 90K and had 2 of the 6 over .100" and the rest in .085-.095" range. I also tore the boots on 3 of the wires so I changed out the wires as well. I used the recommended Ford plugs which were copper and they are only good for 30k. I have done the cheap copper plugs twice, it will be the Iridium next time.
