What does the dealer usually do for the 180k tuneup aside from timing belts and water pump?

Just speculating but they probably change plugs wires fuel filter and maybe adjust valves, and compression test. I don't really know but those are some things i would do besides the timing belt.

it's soo much easier to go the basic maintainance route written in the helms and chiltons.
250,3000,7500,15000,30000,60000,90000 .
just keep a chart of what you get done , how many miles , what's next.
