I'm going to do a tune up on the car. I'm getting plugs, wires, air filter, and fuel filter. What kind of plugs/wires do you all recomend? More than likely I'm going with bosch platinum 4's again. Same with the wires, bosch. Unless anyone can tell me why I shouldn't. I've done some research, I just thought it might be nice to know what people on here think. Thank's.

Where does one get a cap and rotor anyway? I only have a Pep Boys in town and don’t really trust them.
As far as plugs, I have always heard that iridium and platinum and all of those fancy ones are a waste. They are just coated copper and they corrode faster because they are coated. If you can find silver plugs, they are the best conductor and corrode much slower. I wonder if anyone makes silver rotors and caps? -------------------- Michael
