If your gonna spend that much , you can get a wire set and ngk plugs cheaper at Tas Auto, and you can trust those guys unlike ebay , they even have tune up packaging that cost just as much as that ebay link, but you get more in it.. just check it out for yourself

also if ur just bone stock id go with honda replacement sire sets and the ngk spark plugs if thats all your looking to replace.

OEM/Dealership is the best bang for your buck

EX = Vtec
LX / DX = Non Vtec


If u click the red search button u can find a lot of what ur looking for,

-I do knwo the fuel filter is one tough son of a BEEP to get off, some say its impossible some said it was pretty easy so it all deals on how good those bolts are on that filter plus its in a small as place (not exactly too sure where but they do tell u in the searched threads) .

-The dist cap takes like 5 mins to replace if that and thats obviously on ur distributor, where the end of the spark plugs are coming from. Just remember where each spark plug went into, so you dont mix and match, when putting them back on the new cap.

-The rotor is inside the distributor when u take the cap off, how hard it is to replace..not too sure haven't done that before.. I would imagine not too much harder then replacing the Cap,

-PCV valve is on top of your valve cover in the middle towards the back where ur spark plugs are, u should see something sticking out of the valve cover and a hose come from it, theres no way to mistake it, b.c besides the spark plugs its the only thing on the valve cover sticking out with a hose attached to it.

good luck
