I would like to know what all is required to do a tune up on the engine. I prefer to do it myself and just need to know exactly what I need to buy.

Spark plugs. And if you have a distributed vehicle pick up a new rotor, cap and plug wires. If you have coil packs then change all spark plug wires aswell. If its coil on plugs then you cant and your good to go as soon as you chang the spark plugs.

Change the air filter, oil and oil filter.

If the pcv valve has never been changed now would be a good time for that.

Change fuel filter get tank low, as you can then refill with 5 gallons of gas, put in a bottle of seafoam and run her down to about 2 gallons left, refill and your done with that part.

Next check and inflate the tires. Check all fluids and that is it.
