Forgot to list them they were done with the cap and rotor about 1 yr ago I also did a TB cleaning at the same time I'm gonna pull the EGR and clean it in the morning. The car and MANY small vac leaks when I bought it there may be a bunch of carbon and it is not sealing totaly Also there are no SES lights or codes. Keith
