Hard starting, a rough idle or a misfire can mean a plug is worn. A weak ignition coil can also cause a misfire, so these signs alone do not prove the plugs are the problem.

What are the thread size and gap of this spark plug?

Are NGK iridium spark plugs like this one tipped with platinum anywhere?

Yes. NGK 3588 has a fine wire iridium alloy center electrode and a platinum tip on the ground electrode, with a solid copper core.

Does NGK 3588 replace ILFR6A?

Yes. ILFR6A is NGK's other number for this same spark plug, so a search under either number finds NGK 3588.

How can I tell if these spark plugs are wearing out?

With the engine off and cool, a worn-down electrode tip or fouling on the plug can show it is due for replacement. A hard start or a misfire while driving can point the same way.
