00 2.0 Replacing spark plugs - any point? - David Horn
Will be dusting off my Accord in a week or two when I arrive back from the UK. It's being (very!) gently driven to the local post office for tax and then straight to the local Honda dealer for a timing belt change, since it's now eight years old and almost certainly due one, especially after being left sitting in a barn for 4 months.

The spark plugs haven't been changed since new either - worth doing? I'll give it to the dealer to do since if they've been in the head for 8 years then they can have the fun of getting them out. ;-)

Brake pads will also need doing - anyone know if bog standard Honda pads are fine or whether it's worth speccing some different ones? Anything else you'd recommend besides oil?

Cheers,

Dave.
