Accel HP Coil
8.5 mm Spark plug wires
"Bosch 2" Platinum plugs
Transmission serviced
New brakes and rotors
Oil Change
Radiator flushed
New PVC Valve
New front O2 sensor
Fuel filter
Intake cleaned
Sensors cleaned
(And there is more but you really get the point right??)

The thing runs like a new car, to anyone who doesn't believe these are tough cars this little ride I bought proves they are. The thing has zip and punch. I'm really proud of the booger. I think it likes me to.
where do you find a repair manual for the 2001 zx2 so I can repair my own new-used car. I love my ford but I just had a check engine light and the o2 sensor cost me 303$. they wanted to charge me $90 for the fuel filter but I figure it can't be that hard. I want to be able to do my own stuff without paying for at least the simple items. My baby is in good shape, the engine is clean, and they brought up only minor issues during the diagnostics.
