Where is the best place to get outboard spark plugs?    How often should you change them?

any auto parts store will have them.

everything in this post is purely opinion and is said to annoy you.

You'd be better off concerning yourself with aged fuel.....than aged spark plugs. 

Never

As a matter of mechanical science, y'all should be changing injectors more frequently than spark plugs.......But you ain't gonna, cuz they are over 400.00 apiece 😅 

If you truly want to save your motor and preserve performance though..... that's what you should be changing.    

Now, with that in mind.....How much prouder are you of EFI/DFI technology vs. Carburetors?   😉

carb for life...lol. My 2004 xr6 has never left me adrift.......well maybe once when the master mechanic at Mcallister marine put a new pick up tube in my gas tank that only went down half way....i kept on having issues running out of gas....my tank has a step on it and needed a pickup tube that hit the bottom.  you would think when he pulled the long tube out it would have been a sign.
