lol! they was the first time i went in there to buy new ones! when i first bought the car a few months ago i did a full tune up including the oil and a full fuel system cleaning! that reminds me.... that is when the smoking and hard starts first started to happen was shortly after i ran all the fuel treatments through it! i wonder if that could have screwed something up! not sure how, but maybe one of you guys would know??? later!
