Decent oil.

I use Millers Fully synthetic but mines a funny engine - so not sure what would be best for your engine
But fully synthetic all the way.

Get a K&N Replacement panel air filter if your currently using the standard paper filter.

:)

EDIT: just noticed you say yours has 140horses so you probably have an induction kit or something.

its got a procomp induction kit on at the mo, but some clever bastard has glued the hatch thing shut so i cant get in to change the filter. ive not got a turbo or owt but ive got a head with bigger valves, what would be the best plugs then?

if you go to halfords they can print you a weekend service sheet telling you what you will need.
