Default Shopping list...help a nukka out!

Im doin a little tune up tomorow. The boys at the shop said my fuel delivery and charge is lacking. Plus I've noticed that Im getting 15-18mpg :happysad:

Spark plugs (bosche +4) - $20
Wires (Accel or something) - $40
fuel filter - $15
PCV valve?? - $?

Oil - $10
Oil filter - $5
Fuel enhancer - $10
_____
$95 :shocked:

Am I missing anything? I got a clean K&N air filter so that's off the list...
