At least re-set the computer.

Checking the plugs ain't gonna do **** if he already knows that he's running rich out the ass, but swapping in a new set can definately help out.


I'd reccomend moving this to the tech section.

The Saturns run rich regardless. There is nothing you can do other than get a fuel computer and adjust the air/fuel mixture.
