I ran the same glow plug for the break in and a little while after. I wouldn't change it unless you are done with break in or it fouls out.

For the most part - even after break-in - I, like coolhandcountry, also ran it longer (till I noticed it starting to get harder to start and such....). Why replace it if its not broken...

I have 30 runs on my truck and I am using the stock plug, so No you dont have to change it unless it goes bad, Seems like most have to change it during break in cause it goes out.

I just broke in my new REVO 3.3 6-Tanks and it's still running strong. It's always good to have a spare incase.
