What are your plans?

Plugs
Rotor
Cap
Air Filter
Oil Change & Filter

I hope you have the OEM spark plug tool, it will make the plug change much easier. You also need to veirfy gap on the plugs as well. Get Copper Bosch or NGKs.

Bentley for torque specs and Wayne's 101 Book will help allot too

Try putting a bottle of Techron, or even better - a can of BG 44K in a full gas tank. Drive till empty, then change oil. Do this at least yearly.

I thought your suppose to put a bottle into a empty tank right before a fill-up.

It does not have to be empty but filled right before fill up
