[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1256679, member: 19880"] If any are below, I would definitely change them plus any others that are close. In my situation, I had a few that were right at the minimum so I did nothing until I had a couple that were below. I then changed anything that was remotely close. As far as the TBS is concerned, its worth doing, especially if it hasn't been done before. If you have the tools (manometer etc.) it doesn't take very much time. I question the need to do it every 5000 miles. Its been a pretty long time since I did mine but we are talking closer to 50,000 rather than 5,000. (I think I remember reading that the Gen I tend to drift out of adjustment faster than the Gen II or III) If you get the block off plates, it cleans up the top of the engine so TBS is easier.
