Re: what's in a 120K tune-up?

if u replace the timing belt ($180) u might as well do the water pump while ur at it - cause its right there an it isnt really that much fun doin either...you gotta take a handfull of things off the driverside of the engine when doin it- i dont remember what the w-pump costs . but i would get it done.. mine went 287k miles before i had to replace anything - first think i had to replace @ 287k miles was the Thermostat ($45) then the pwater pump gasket went so i replaced that an a new seal($?) then i did the timing belt while i was there - the rest of the car is all orig. i am second owner - bought it from some old dude that looked like if he coughed wrong he would die... he has service records an tune up recipes from 2 months after he bought the car - he had the oil changed every month even if it didnt need it - had the car fully inspected every 2 months buy the dealer that imported it for him .... so i am happy i got it - it was a well taken care of car...an i am only doin the same - just can't afford the monthly oil change - i do it when ever its needed usually over a month though..

the tune up prob. does a check on the injectors for leaks clogs ... an the will prob do a new wire an plug job... shit like that
