Default finally changed my cap / rotar for 1 first time in 2-3 years

and upon removal of the old rotor, i notice that it was burnt up half way and only had about the other half to work it.

good thing i was bored today, cuz i dont think driving on a burnt out rotor is healthy.

oh yeah, also replaced my red focuz 9mm wires to oem, re-installed all the plug wire mounts/brackets, and new v-power plugs.
now the wires are nice and neat. even though they are a lot skinnier.

anyways, hopes this improves my gas mileage and acelleration.

Haha, in my old Integra I changed the spark plugs/wires/cap/rotor for the first time at 115,000 miles.

Did you notice a difference? My plugs, wires, cap, and rotor are all original. Ive checked plugs-look good yet, wire resistence-all way under 10,000 ohm per foot. never checked the cap and rotor yet though. With all original stuff, my car still runs fine. I will probably do a full tune-up in spring. NGK coppers for gsr, ngk wires, autozone cap and rotor=good enough.
