is your coil bad?
bosch platinum plugs are my favorite.
NGK wires
i just buy generic cap & rotor
either get an oem coil or a accel super coil #8140 for yellow or 8140C for chrome look in the how to for an install.
nah, my coil isnt bad. but I think it has been a while since the car has had a tune up. My gas milage has been shitty. so Im thinking this is the time for a tune up.
if its been a long time go for a full tune up
Valve adjustment
Timing belt
Timing adjustment.
Drive belts
fuel filters

shit theres a whole bunch of things i usually do annually
it really extends the life of the car, and lets the engine run the way it should for longer :P
hm..... maybe get the rest of the filters changed too.
well the head was replaced before I bought it, So The Valve Lash should be fine. Timing belt was done when I got my Watter pump replaced, so my Cooling system was Flushed out and Refilled. Timming belt and timming was done.
AIr filter- maybe a CAI
Fuel Filter- nope
Oil- nope
Tranny- Nope. not since Rebuild
