As some of you have read, I've had an injector leak issue that soaked my spark plug in gasoline. Got the injectors fixed, but left the spark plugs. The plugs seem to work fine, but I'm sure they're still black.....

They found all three injectors were defective and replaced all three in bank 1. So my question is, should I just replace the three plugs in bank 1 as well just for a peace of mind?

TIA

I would just replace all 6 spark plugs. It's a 15 minute job and a good idea to do on a regular basis when tuned

Forgot to mention, I changed all 6 just 3 weeks prior to the injector leak. So the other 3 is good for sure........

Yep, its too cheap not to do. I wouldn't risk misfires when you can knock it out for $30-$60
