How often does everyone change their spark plugs and air filters on average use?
 
Chainsaw . . . splitter . . . ATV . . . tractor . . . ????
 
If your talking newer vehicles most of them can go 100k miles(spark plugs), but I've heard by then they are very hard to get out. I've heard some guys will occasionally loosen and re-tighten them. Anything else I usually change only if there is a problem.
 
When they quit running good, I check everything.
Chains saw:
Plug in my 1982 husky 61 lasted till last year LOL :) true!
Air filter when it quits idling. I clean it.

Lawn mower air filter every year, (or at least I clean it)
 
I haven't change the plug on my chainsaw in over 20 years. Probably the same for the filter.
