the easy stuff:
oil and filter change, spark plugs, wires, distributor cap and rotor, air filter, pcv valve, and check to make sure all your fluids [p/s, brake, clutch, tranny] are full and clear if you want to go further (more expensive things that are most likely unnecessary): coolant flush and fill, fuel filter, change all the belts including the timing belt, thermostat, water pump thats all I can think of right now... I'm sure theres more to be added -------------------- |

I've tried leaning on it pretty hard, and I stopped for fear of snapping it. |
