I also endorse platinum spark plugs.  Always seems to refresh my van.  To me, new plugs are the single biggest "tune up" item that makes a difference.  (Spark plug wires, rotor, distributor cap....not so much.)   I've only used the single tip platinum plugs...Bosch.  I almost feel like a seasoned mechanic when I remove and replace and feel that engine purr!  And it's a 1.9 with 199,000 miles.

There's also Bosch Platinum +4 (quad tip) 4477.  Installed today, seems to have smoothed the idle and acceleration over the well used Bosch single tip plugs they replaced. Smooth running.
