spark plugs, rotor, rotor cap and wires: service interval?

he guys,

My spark plugs and wires are now installed about a year ago and we drove about 12,500 miles.

the engine started, what seemed to be, skipping a cilinder, especialy when cold.

So I was wondering at what interval you guys change these parts?

Re: spark plugs, rotor, rotor cap and wires: service interval?

wires should last several years as long as they arent messed up or burnt on the sides.. plugs on a carbed motor should be checked every year or so and about 12 K miles..
