I agree with Jim (and not just because he comes from a good family I am frequently tempted to "improve" or "fix" something that is working fine. On many occasions when I have yielded to this temptation, I have regretted my actions which caused unexpected problems.

So unless an action can be described as "preventive maintenance", I tend to leave well enough alone. But maybe inspecting for corroded ignition coil bolts would be worth doing. If I had read about lots of problems with seized spark plugs in Insights, then removing them to apply anti-seize compound might be good preventive maintenance.

Which reminds me … what is the "everyday" product that can be used as a good anti-seize compound? It was mentioned in the Insight Central forum, but I have been unable to find it again.
