What is involved with a tune up on a 4.6 2000 expy? I looked, but I cant even find the spark plugs... They dont make them like they used too. Thanks-Dave

Spark plugs are under COPs (individual coils on top of the plugs). There is no distributor nor are there any wires. Look again and it will make more sense. The COPs are easily removed to expose the plugs.

Changing plugs is the only traditional "tune up" item, but while you're at it, you'll probably want to change the fuel filter, pcv valve, clean the MAF sensor and inspect and clean the TB (although Ford advises against cleaning the TB).

How many miles on the Expy?

I would look at a fuel filter change, if not previously done within the last 15,000 miles.
