So I'm still not done with the body work but I've fixed any problems the car has that I can think of. Scrubbed, degreased and coated the rusty undercarriage, cleaned the IAC valve, repaired the battery cables. I need more to do.
So I thought a "tune up" would be a good place to start. Here's a list I found online. Any suggestions to add? (Turbocharging wouldn't be in the tune up, that will have to come later).
-Check the fuel filter (good thread on doing this I saw in the forum)
-Check the air filter
-Check the spark plugs
-Check spark plug wires
-Check fluid levels (already did that and coolant is still green)
-Check the PCV valve
-Change oil if necessary
-Check belts for cracks/fraying
-Check lights
-Check tire air pressure and tread
Sound complete?
(Surprisingly when I did a forum search on "tune up" my post on putting a turbine in my taurus came up on the first page, maybe it is a tuning up procedure)
