First engine maintenance stuff done
 
Im a new member , Introduced myself the other day in the new member forum. Anyway , I did my first maintenance on my new to me 2007 se four banger over this past weekend. My car has 98k miles. The trans oil had never been changed , went to my local oil change place , had trans flushed. Motor oil had been changed by dealer just before buying. One thing i wanted to do after buying was try and figure out the rough idle and hesitation when i first give it the gas. So after having trans oil replaced i picked up some NGK Iridium plugs,K&N filter and engine degreaser. Got home i put the filter in, used K&N mostly so i don't have to keep changing it. My first thought before changing plugs was hoping none are stuck or oily. I was thrilled that all came out easy AND were tan colored not oily. So, i installed the plugs , sat in the car behind the wheel , said a little prayer that this would solve the rough idle and hesitation.... YES!! I was so happy i could have went danced in the street, settled on drinking three Coronas with a twist of lime :D
