Thanks again for the reply, Klaus.

Good to know that I can switch between mid grade and premium. I'd hate to go broke feeding premium into the car. I will go with full synthetic, though. Next I'll have to go shopping for oil filter cartridges and the tool to remove the case. Any recommendations on best places to buy them both are much appreciated as the service light comes on when the car is first started so I'm assuming it's time.

Too bad that I bought the car from a dealer and have no service records. The local dealer won't give me the PO's phone number so I'll just have to learn as I go and change everything that needs changing as in the timing belt, tensioner and water pump at the next service interval.

About the only thing I've found wrong with it is the fuel pump is whining so I have a new one on the way along with the retaining ring tool. Both front hubs after that then the oil change. The passenger door release was disconnected, either popped off or wasn't reconnected the last time someone was in the panel so I took care of that yesterday. Unbelievable how easy that was. License plate lights are out so I'll check the fuse this afternoon, research how to replace them if it's good. Other than that it's a sweet ride.
