This is what you need for a basic tune-up.
...which I need to do soon. I should start looking online for the lowest prices, because my local dealership is insane.

you need to tell us how many miles you have and what things have been done and how long ago they were done for you to get the best response.

Re: need a complete list of tune-up (GsR-Freak)
that pretty much covers everything:
Fuel Filter
Air Filter
Spark Plugs
Spark Plug Wires
A/C Belt
Alternator Belt
Power Steering Belt
Timing Belt Check
Flush Cooling System
Valve Adjustment
Oxygen Sensor
Valve Cover Gasket and Spark Plug Seals
Oil and Filter Change
Transmission Oil Change
Distributor Rotor and Cap
****And use a bottle or 2 of LUCAS Octane Booster to clean your system. The reason I say LUCAS Octane Booster is because I've used all the other kinds, and DAMMM!!!!! LUCAS is the best.. haha.. Makes the car run EXTREMELY NICE and SMOOTH..
That should do it..
Are you having any real problems? or just wanting to do a tune up?

oh ya.. and if you are looking for great deals on OEM Acura Parts, email Scott Edwards at SEdwards@cushcars.com. Tell him you were recommended by krisgt2@hotmail.com.
He is an authorized Acura Dealership out of Cali. He Gives great prices with an actual receipt from the dealership and 1-year warrenty. I just got all my parts to do my tune up 2 weeks ago, and he ships fast and VERY reasonable.
most important, he is LEGIT!!!!!!!!

i just bought (got em yesterday) new spark plugs (+gaskets), spark plug wires, distributor cap and rotor, and fuel filter off of acuraparts247.com for like 170 shipped.
i went to put it all in this afternoon, but i got the plugs in and the wires switched on and then it started snowing. I'll finish it all tommorrow it's supposed to be nice (i say "nice" as 40-45 degrees) but with just those, the car feels much smoother.
REGULAR MAINTENENCE ROCKS!!

i don't think i would bother with the 02 sensor. that's too expensive of a part (to me) to replace if it's not broken.
radiator flush was a good addition. check everything else before you replace it. no sense replacing stuff that's still good.

thats true you dont have to replace your oxgen sensor.
but if you are getting bad gas mileage and you have high mileage on your car, might as well replace the o2 sensor.

Re: need a complete list of tune-up (LsHoney84)
yeah that 0xygen sensor is gonna hurt your wallet especially since there are two of them you can replace.
very pricey check it out:
http://www.acuraoemparts.com
only replace when neccesary if the car is running fine don't mess with the oxygen sensor

Re: need a complete list of tune-up (Ralpho)
you can also check the peformance section and check out the vendors who sell the o2 sensors. I dont know anything about the vendor maybe someone does.
Luckily i got a connection at my dealership.
