Default Re: Tune-up ?

Your coil should be good for the life of the car, leave it alone. Any decent set of wires except what Chrysler sells will do. A lot of us went to the Champion Double Platinum plugs #7570 gapped at .040in. Be sure to use dielectric grease on the plugs wires, anti-seize on the threads of the plugs.

If you can afford it, switch to synthetic oil. Good for the engine and might even give you 1 or 2 more MPG.

The owner of the forums (Skylight) put a "sticky" in the Teck & Performance part of the forum. Use that as your guide to changing the plugs and wires. You won't have to do some of the instructions and it pertains to older PT's but most of it's the same.
