If you can obtain a filter I guess it makes sense to change it. But most of us will tell you it is it won’t be necessary..

Ah The spark plugs!

Again my wife’s 2005 Camry this time when it had 150,000 miles. I think they’re supposed to be changed every 100,000 miles. But since the car ran perfectly I put it off until 150. I spent $40 for four new super Duper spark plugs. When I took them out they looked perfectly fine. I can’t remember what the gap was and you’re not supposed to adjust the gaps on these plugs

But if money was tight, I would’ve put them right back in! I put the new plugs in and put the old ones on a 2 x 4 beam in the shelf in the garden shed.. In case I ever need them! I have seen these kinds of plugs iridium plugs with 15,000 miles and the electrode was broken and the motor was running like crap.

One more thing. The accessory belt also had 150,000 miles on it when it was changed. I couldn’t do it my brother In law is a freelance BMW mechanic he did it. But you can buy a gate belt gauge or rather you can get one for free. I checked the old belt and it speced out new! It’s hanging on my closet door in the bedroom in case I ever need it.
