Tune up parts.
Im completely new to the Honda scene. Im looking to tune up my 1990 Civic. Plugs, wires, fuel filter..etc...
I know with my Mustang the 5.0L likes certain plugs. Is the Honda the same way Its complete stock 1.5L. any benefit to upgrading wires on these things? |
just will get a cleaner/better ignition and better running car. id say go with ngk for your plugs and make sure you gap em! also for a full tune up id go:
dizzy cap and rotor, wires, plugs, fuel filter, air filter , oil change, possibly new coolant depending on the condition, and dont forget to get some carb cleaner and clean out the throttle body for a smoother idle! |
Thanks for the reply.

It may not have the power your 5.0 had, but you'll really enjoy the fuel economy.:smile: Do you have any plans for the car? or is it just going to be a basic daily driver? |

+1. NGK plugs make a difference. You wont even gain 4hp but your car will feel better , at least mine did

No plans as of yet. Maybe rims to make it look better but i just want realiabilty and mileage. I have another toy if I wanna go fast.

Maybe your car just needed a tune-up...? ;)
No no , NGK really makes a difference. You wont get any HP but the car seems to run better. Although OEM plugs are also good |

Also, by oem quality, I meant any part (aftermarket or oem) that is as good as or better than the oem standards. Like parts you'd get from napa etc... |
