I think "it's" vs "its" has to be right up there.

I have a bad habit of typing "form" when I wanted to type "from" and spell check doesn't catch that.

That one used to give me fits -- I still say in my mind "it is" or "it was" to see if that's (another one!) what I wanted to say.

Possesive -- "its fuel injectors" -- no apostrophe.
