Default tune up price?

hi,

im in need of a tune up badly on my 97 lude. i went to my local auto parts store and i found out for everything it will come out to $110. this includes.

sparkplugs
fuel filter
sparkplug wires
cap and rotor
pvc valve

i will be putting in everything myself. do these prices seem correct?

thanks,

nick

What plugs/wires are you getting? If you're gonna change them, might as well go big and get Denso Iridiums and some low resistance wires. Probably cost an extra $20 if you buy them online

In a plug wire, you're more concerned with reducing leakage, crosstalk, and general durability than with lowering resistance (my opinion)

Definitely get the cap and rotor from Honda. The ones I got from autozone set off my damn radar detector any time the engine went above 3000 RPM.
