    Twist and Pull... they're boogers too get off after being on for a while. Just the way they are, most likely nothing "wrong" with them if your not showing a misfire or a check engine light.

    They factory AC Delcos claim a 100,000 mile life expectancy (assuming its driven easily for that 100k) most last 80k(ish) that I've seen. Really depends on the driver and the car maintenance.

    I believe the factory Delcos are double platinum that year... which should be swapped out for some nice, shiny iridium plugs regardless.
    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+.
