Although 82 Iron Duke has a point, you gotta learn sometime. Be careful when you ask the question about which oil is better- that usually starts a 30 day long flame war about who makes the best oil. IMHO, changing the oil on a regular basis is more important than what kind of oil you're putting in. This goes the same for the tranny fluid. Now granted, I would not recommend buying the cheapest dino oil out there. But a good synthetic or sythetic blend from a reputable oil company should be fine. As far as the spark plugs- don't fall for all the marketing of the "platinum tips" and things like that. AC Delco seems to be the favorite of the guys on TGO and that price isn't bad either. I prefer the AC Delco oil filter, and really don't have much of a preference for any certain fuel filter. Also plug wires should be included in part of the tune up.

Thank you,
I didn't feel like typing info when you can do a search or get it from a manual that comes with our cars.
