How Important is it to do the 90,000 mile service...i went to take my car to mechanic shop and he says its not all that important, he told me to come back at 105,000 miles...plus i just got an oil change and rotated my tires, so all they have to do is a bunch of checks...should i pay a couple hundred dollars 4 them to check things? Also my problem is that i am getting about 20-40 less miles per Tank of gas. So i guess that means spark plugs need to be replaced?
 
If you haven't had your timing belt replaced, you need to do that around now. Otherwise, you can skip the 15,000 mi. service and just go with the major service every 30k miles, and if it wasn't even that often it would probably be okay. Spark plugs are important, plus points and condensor if you have them (and I'm guessing you don't). There's not much else that could break on you in the next 15k miles.
 
You could be right on the plugs if they have never been changed. The critical thing here is to make sure the timing belt is changed at the correct interval to avoid potential catastrophic engine failure.
