I used a lot of paper towel today lol

Definitely agree with the filters and the wix/napa gold are cheaper than most filters, Purolator gold is another decent one. Synthetic will cause more leaks. I use rotella 10w-30 and I LOVE it. I do however disagree with the NGKs all my jeeps love Champion. As a general rule of thumb I try to keep domestic plugs in domestic cars and import plugs in import cars, things just seem to run better this way. There have been exceptions but thats what works for me.

I have had 3-4 Champion plugs go bad when they were very "young" in more than one vehicle. They were adjusted under a defect warranty. Switched to NGK because I was getting tired of changing bad Champions. Have never regretted it.
