why would you throw them away? you look at the electrode for flatness. if they are rounded off you lift the tab get a small file and file them flat. then regap after the cleaning of course. you need a spark plug cleaner machine though. it sandblasts the plugs. plus it will also check the firing. they say do not use a wire brush as it will scratch the porcelen and carbon up that much faster. when i worked in the GM garage i saved lots of plug that after doing a tune up they were garbage bound. i have a 2013 jeep here with 250,000 km. and still original spark plugs. but with the carburators plugs did not last nearly as long. lucky to get 20-30,000 miles. and with todays engines the plugs are clean and no need to clean them. a spark plug is good till there is no electrode left. reminds me of my uncle changed plugs just to change them ,... i would take his old ones and use them in my tractor lol.
