So, 140k miles later...
I finally did a tune on my truck. I feel kinda bad for letting it go that long, but it was running fine.
Rotor cap, dizzy cap, plugs and wires. They were all factory installed. The cap had some corrosion and the rotor cap was about toast. The button had flattend out completely.
Suprising enough, the plugs looks really good. none showed any unusual wear and there wasn't signs of any fluids as well.
The wires were pretty much gone, they were showing signs of heat stress and the like. I went back with the best I could get locally. 8mm Bosch wires and matching Bosch plugs.
If I get another 140k out of this tune I'll be a happy camper <grin>
Anywho - just thought I'd share what I found out of damn near 150k miles on factory plugs, wires and related parts.
