Generally, most spark plugs we made to last 60,000-100,000 miles. The spark plugs in the Chrysler Town & Country should be inspected and cleaned every 30,000 miles, according to Chrysler. By replacing the spark plugs as suggested, gas mileage can be improved as well as strain on the engine.
Follow these easy steps to replace the spark plugs in a Chrysler Town & Country:

1. First, you should disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Let the battery cool. Do not try to replace the spark plug in a hot engine, as it can damage the cylinder head.
3. Find the spark plug wires. They will be located across the front and back of the engine.
4. Release the lock on the spark plug by first grabbing the spark plug wire by its boot. Turn it one-half turn clockwise, and then one-half turn counterclockwise. Pull the wire off the spark plug. Lay the wire aside.
5. Insert the socket over the plug. Turn counterclockwise to wiggle loose and remove the old plug.
6. Use air to spray the cylinder to remove any dirt or debris
7. Put the new spark plug in the cylinder and tighten in place with the socket. Note: For tapered plugs: turn one-half turn to left to break the washer when the plug has been secured. Note: For non-tapered plugs: utilize a tension tester to conclude the tension on the plug. Then look on the package of the spark plug to determine the suitable tension.
8. Next, put the spark plug wire back to its original position, and then turn it one-half turn clockwise and counterclockwise. This will lock it in position. Do this for each of the remaining spark plugs.
9. Replace the negative battery cable that you disconnected earlier.
