I'm about to tear in to a spark plug and wire change. I'm also going to clean the throttle body and MAF while I have them apart and also do the deck plate mod along with a new tru flow filter. My question is.....What else should I replace or check while I have all the intake piping off? Any suggestions?
Routine Maintaince while intake off??

I would clean the IAC too. You'll need just a tiny bit of RTV silicone to seal the IAC back up to the bottom of the throttle body. Altough many people reuse them, new gaskets for the TB and the IAC are very cheap even at the dealer (< $10) so I would suggest getting those too. Keep in mind it's normal for your engine to idle a little higher for a while right after you clean the TB/IAC. Watch out when you take the brass (or whatever they are) screws that hold the IAC to the TB out - very easy to strip.
