I don't know if there is any relevance to your engine, but Ford platinum tipped plugs are specified to last 50,000 miles. As for fuel consumption, it might be worth getting someone to check the oxygen sensor on the catalyst. Might the verniers have slipped and be causing a performance hit and thus a heavier right foot?

Use the Ford plugs is my advice they were specifically designed for those engines due to plug problems and in general most tuners i have spoken too always reccomend them.
