tune up stuff?
what kinds of things do I need to do for a tune up..
I already plan on changing the oil, spark plugs, tranny fluid, and fuel filter..
what else can should be done..
I was lied to by the seller, claimed the car gets 50mpg w/ the AC on when driving on the freeway.. I do nothing but freeway driving and I'm getting 36mpg on the VX 10 gal tank. The car seems to sputter a bit when accelerating, and thats not constant but usually in the lower rpm around 2-3k it does it. Figured the thing needs a decent tune up. !sarcasm! Thanks a ton Jonathan_EG

plugs, wires, dizzy rotor/cap, air filter, fuel fitler, oil change, timing belt, water pump. Some are more serious than others. First 3 and an oil change are considered a good tune up.
