Service your baby

How often do you service your car?
I clean the plugs and distributor every week. Am I over excessive?

I think you answered your own question.

Really, it depends on how much you drive, how you drive, where you drive and the condition of what you drive. If you want to give your car the once-over every week, go ahead.
