zoltron30 Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 does anyone have any good suggestions on a particular brand of spark plug? i hear NGK is the best. just checked the manual and its time to change the spark plugs on a 01 honda accord 4cyl. the manual states every 7 years or 105,000 km's. i'm going to also have my brakes inspected and change the brake fluid, as per the manual.
nicolaselias Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 I find that a very very long interval for spark plugs... I normally hear that if using copper plugs they should be changed every 30,000km I personally go with NGK ZRF 6FIX Iridium plugs... they cost about $7 or $8 each and will last you ages.. if you want the best deal on plugs, try to get an NGK G-power plug.. it is platinum but costs somewhere around $3 each.. Also, regards brake fluid. is the braking system stock? If so get a good quality DOT 4 fluid such as Castrol GT LMA synthetic ... If you want to improve the performance of the braking system, you can purchase a bottle of ATE Superblue racing DOT 4.. an excellent fluid (use it in 2 of my cars) and this will offer longer life, higher boiling points and best of all cool colour! http://www.raceshopper.com/brake_fluid.shtml
