Full tune up complete! Well more like 15 hours ago, but anyway, I replaced the following...

Spark plugs and wires, it had the original that came with the car in 1997!!!
Manual transmission oil.
Normal oil.

After changing the manual tranny oil 3rd gear is grinding... This worries me greatly... I don't have the money to rebuild the tranny, why would just changing the oil cause it to start grinding??

Anyway, with all that being said, I got new record going to work today at 51.2MPG on UG! I was able to hold 5th gear where I normally had to drop into 4th, that tune up made a huge difference.
