   Do you think I will notice a difference in my car if I replace my spark plugs (not sure when they were last done - 12,000 miles ago at the least) and get an oil change?
   
   P.s , what spark plugs are decent?

   shoulden't really think so!
   
   oil change will make the car drive better and keep the engine well oil'd and also give it a longer life! if done regulary!

   Yeah, won't make much difference if any in the performance but replacing both will increase the life of the engine.
