I have a 2000 3.2 TL with 163K miles on it. I'm needing another tune up. Gas
milege used to be about 400 miles to a tank (even in the summer) and I'm
getting about 340 now. Can anyone suggest a good place to buy a genuine
Acura tune up kit online? I want to make sure I get ALL the necessary parts.
Would someone please let me know ALL the parts needed as well so I don't
forget anything, unless there is a "complete" kit available.

Your help is truly appreciated.

Do you think I'm your personal slave, or something?

Free clue: RTFM.

Uhhhhhh... Thanks man... I think I asked nicely enough and you gotta give
some smart ass answer like that? In fact, that's the 1st time I've ever seen
a response like that here. You know, I play guitar and I'm kind of an expert
at musical gear if you will. I visit the guitar groups daily and people ask
questions all day and I help them. Makes me feel good. Why waste your time
with a reply like that?

Actually, it was the "Anyone? Helllloooooooo out there?" that prompted
the comment, not the original question. So, tell us, *have* you RTFM?
The answer's in there.

Sorry to offend the delicate sensibilities of a "guitar player," I
know you guys are a lot more sensitive than drummers...

No, the manual was stolen from the car a few years ago... In fact the whole
car was stolen. Don't ask me why they took the manual. I got the car back,
obviously.

No man... You don't offend me, you're just being a jerk is all.

There is no such thing as a standard "tune-up" kit. You buy the parts
you need be they spark plugs, filters, etc.
