AC-Delco Spark Plugs:
I installed new plugs. These are somewhat
difficult. Best access is remove the front wheels
and go through the wheel wells with a long
extension and a swivel spark plug socket.

I removed and totally disassembled the throttlebody.
I cleaned it with a tooth brush and Berrymans B-12
Carburetor Cleaner. I reassembled using new gaskets.

AC-Delco Spark Plugs Wires:
I installed a new spark plug wire set. These
are somewhat difficult, because it is hard to
get the wires routed through the heat shield
on the drivers side.

Headlight Upgrades:
It is well known that the headlight capsules have poor
light output. To help this I installed a new wiring
harness built by Gary Clark at Innovative Wiring, this
is an excellent product. I also install Sylvania
SilverStar Ultra bulbs.
