    Fuel mileage and bad shifting, wrong shift points etc can be related to needing a tune up.

    When was the last plug and wire change?
    Last time you cleaned the TB/MAF?
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    few months ago for tune up. and Cleaned MAF last year.
    billboost- i have noticed my shift points moved for overdrive. usually it shifts around 45,46ish... now it likes to shift around 48, 49 most of the time around 50 though.

    i put some of the cheaper NGKs in there. should i change them out for better plugs?
