Is there anything i am missing here if so please add i would like to get this right the first time. I run copper plugs in my MR2 but i have to change them every other oil change. They tend to work the best and give the best spark and there cheap anyway so it doesn't matter. So help me out guys what should i get. If there was anything i left out please let me know

WIRES-Taylor 94/95 specific 8mm
CAP & ROTOR-Accel or MSD cap&rotor
OIL & FILTER-MotorCraft FL-1A or PureOne filter (blue not the cheap white one)...Air Filter Napa Gold or Wix are one the highest rated filters out.

some great info here wytstang. also you will want to replace fuel filter with a motorcraft part #FG800A,and pvc valve motorcraft part# EV98B and pvc screen motorcraft part #FA1068 and grommet. i recommend accel wires. when in doubt use motorcraft, and good luck

do a search online for motorcraft parts, call local parts stores only buy parts you cannot find anywhere else from dealer they charge too much for instance wal-mart sells motorcraft filters and plugs i would go with autolite. accel or msd parts instead of motorcraft they are just as good buy at auto parts store call all of them and get prices you can save alot of money by doing this. we have a few locally owned auto parts store in town you have a few too, they sell motor craft cheaper than the dealer and also some people won't agree but you can buy some good namebrand parts on e-bay. believe me the ford dealership will break you on just the tuneup parts listed above.
