tune up....
Just wondering if a tune up consists of mainly new spark plugs?? I want to get Bosch platinum plugs or something like it but not sure if it really does anything extra. Or should I just do a tune up and get them to put in just regular pugs? If it's nothing more than new plugs mainy.. should I just put plugs in myself or do the whole tune up and expect a better ride....
thanks..
thanks..

i guess a tune up with good sparks would be the way.. BTW, how do I know if my wires and plugs need to be replaced?? last time I changed them was 3 years ago.. they were bosch platinum...
anyone know of a place with good pricing for a civic tune up that's good around the oakville area??

No platinum 
3 mos??? How far/hard do you drive man? Depends on where you drive, how you drive, etc... in TO traffic, ya, I'd do it every 3-4 months, but if you are like me, twice a year is cool.

are there any plugs that will give you better performance like i heard that bosch has good plugs because they burn the mixture better due to double spark or something like that.. let me know what the best spark plugs are to use and what gains they have
Path of least resistance states that by laws of physics there will be only ONE path for that spark to travel.
Even numbers won't work, but triple spark, THAT'S THE REAL DEAL!!
