Basic Tune-Up Time, Need Advice.

[hondaokie]

Hey guys and gals, I'm ready to give my ole' faithful 1991 accord a good basic tune up and need you guys to help me by giving me a list of some basic things to check. I've got new plugs, I've changed all the fluids but that's it. Any little advice would be great, thanks.

Here is a check list:

Fluids - Done

Plugs - Done....

Now some other things:

Spark Plug Wires - (Should be done with your Plugs)

PCV Valve - (A very cheap and basic thing to change that many people forget)

Intake Air Filter - (K&N never fails)

Oil Filter - (With your basic oil change)

Fuel Filter - (this is a harder thing to change... but neccessary)

and.. I believe that's about it.

I do my own tune up and it costs me about less than $100 for quality parts.

Good Luck!

With a 91, you should check the compression as well. Make sure you aren't having any smoke out of the exhaust...after you get over 100k, it is semi-common for your piston rings to get worn and start leaking oil. This will cause blue smoke to come out your exhaust...so check for that as well.
