Default Trying to get parts for a tune-up, but what are these?

I got spark plugs, air filter, and fuel filters. But what are wires, caps( are these caps for the oil, etc?), and rotor?

And how much do you guys usually spend on these? Thanks

Wires would be your spark plug wires. Cap would be the distributor cap and the rotor is inside the distributor.

if you are seriously asking what these parts are i suggest you let someone help you. Someone that knows what they are doing. Possibly do some research also.

wires = spark plug wires

cap = distributor cap

rotor = inside distributor cap

I am having someone doing this, and they quoted me $150 (which is more than 2x) for parts. Just trying to figure what they are to price them out myself.

HE was referring to labor not parts I think. Yes the parts will cost at least $100 as well as the labor. so should be in the $200-250 range for parts and labor
