Gonna do a tune up. Am I missing anything?
Gonna do a tune up. Am I missing anything?
So far I've gotten the following parts. This will be the first time I do a tune up to the civic, but just want to make sure I didn't forget anything.
Spark Plugs (NGK Laser Platinum, PZFR6F-11)
Air Filter (Fram CA8911)
Fuel Filter (Beck Arnley, In Tank)
PCV Valve (Beck Arnley)
Redline SI-1 Fuel Additive (1 bottle, high in delicious PEA)
Accessory belts were done not too long ago when they Timing Belt was changed, so those will remain.
I flushed the coolant (and replaced radiator cap and t-stat, and even refilled it with Honda coolant) a few months ago, so that will be left alone. The hoses looked (and still look) pretty good.
Thanks

Go to 7th gen engine DIYs and read Gearbox's forgotten tune up mods thread.
Changing the O2 sensor, cleaning the EGR and throttle body would be good ideas.

Definitely replace the EGR valve gasket while your at it, my local auto parts store actually carried them and they were around. $3
