    I posted earlier about a (dealer) $115 labor charge for changing the spark
    plugs in my 2001 PT, and $75 for changing the power steering fluid. The shop
    I've been dealing with for the past 30 some years quotes $48 for the plug
    change, and $60 for the PS fluid. Why do I need to change the fluid I asked. To
    flush it, to get metal particles out because of possible damage to the pump and
    the rack. OK, I'll go with this. My question is...........What plug should I
    buy to have put in? I believe I read awhile back in this ng that the mpg and
    performance can be enhanced by installing a particular brand of plug. What
    brand of plug would that be?
    Any other suggestions for having something done in this "tune-up" that might
    improve mpg/performance?
    And no, not installing a $600+ exhaust system and other changes with a 50 year
    payback period.
