Answer is C.

"Not only the muffler, but also the spark plugs need to be replaced"

There are 2 subjects, muffler and spark plugs, which make it a plural subject.

verbs in plural forms have no -s in it

(e.g)

This apple tastes bad (singular)

These apples taste bad (plural)

so the verb "need" in the sentence is correct
