lol... That's messed up John!! Don't forget to adjust the points!!!
There's really not a whole lot to it, Sheldon! I just keep my fluids clean & fresh, keep the engine & filters clean, and that's really it! I don't consider any of these a "tune up" really, just standard periodic maintenance.

For a 100K "tune up"
What John Said +
1. New Radiator Hoses (get the around the belt - dual alt version)
2. New Serp Belt.
3. Coolant flush and fill
4. Add Coolant Filter (if not present)
5. Differential drrain and fill (if it has not been done at regular intervals)
6 Tranny Flush and fill (if it has not been done at regular intervals)
7. Tranny filter if it appears a little dirty
8. Clean Exhaust backpressure sensor and tube if not allready done.

Wow I never though it would be that easy to maintain! I was sure there was going to be something I didnt know about!
And john, you got me good man! I just woke up and before I head out I was going to check this, read the first part of your answer, half sleepy! I thought to myself, look at this guy, telling me to get new plugs lol.
Thanks for the info
