[Shotimes] service

[Mike]

Hmm, don't know about earlier ATXs, but my '95 manual changes the plugs only
at 60K.  No mention of wires, valve covers, plug seals, etc. mentioned.  At
100K the only items are timing belt and valve lash adj.  This is from the
severe service schedule.  If the water pump leaks prematurely, then of
course the front goodies can be done at that time.  AS with the front main
seal.
