Default Tune up time

96 LS auto
my car has had no real maintance outside of regualar oil changes and stuff, righ tnow the car is off getting painted, but when it comes back im gonna tune it up a bit

heres what i have planned

sea foam..i have 75k miles...should i worry about carbon deposits that are filling holes/cracks getting washed out?

plugs and wires...never bought these before? what kind do you recommend for an engine with just IHE

cap and rotor..should i go to acura for these? or are they available at pepboys...anythin other than OEM neccesary?

fuel filter...those universal see-through ones any good?

coolant change


anything else i should do aside from the timing belt..which will be done just not right now...thanks!

get ngk plugs. any parts store cap and rotor are fine. i got a cap and rotor for like 15 bucks.

theres a how to for tranny changing try searching i do believe i seen it a while ago. and i have 4 quarts of honda mtf for sale if your interested.

it might be a good idea to flush the coolant also, look in a tune-up manual to see what is required in a tune-up.
your nearing a timing belt change in about 15k miles.

i havent seen any fuel filters that are see through. theyre all covered with a black housing, and yes any parts store one is fine. i got mine for 20 bucks.
air filter.
inspect brakes. flush and refill brake fluid.
oil change.
