    You have a '97, so you have to run a power line. Did you do this?

    If the gauge is brand new, it is not set to scan yet. Hold both buttons to get the menu, then press the right button to select "SCAN."
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.
