Did a nice little tune up on the vert
#1
I replaced the spark plugs, changed the oil, have new plug wires on the way (8.5mm), adjusted the tps, cleaned all the intake components (throttle body, and air flow sensor), new air filter... also ordering a new o2 sensor tomorrow.
Anything else ya'll can think of? I have fresh fluid in everything already... diff, tranny, brakes... power steering is gone

injector cleaning
fuel filter change
new or repack bearings
flush radiator/ any other liquid
check 5th and 6th ports
Injectors do need cleaning, but i don't trust any local shops with em
Fuel filter new as of last month
Wheel bearings?
Radiator flushed last month as well
5th and 6th ports are soon to be gone... maybe...

You could send your injectors off if you can afford that much time
and yes, the wheel bearings.
I put it up on jacks, pulled the wheels off and spun everything. all is still turning smooth... I'll pull em and repack em still.
I guess I could send the injectors off. I'm gonna try to find the set off of my other car and send those off so I won't have any down time... if I can find them...

you dont need to worry about you wire thickness with the stock ignition. I dyno'd my vert's motor with a 5 dollar wireset and a 90 dollar wire set and it was .003hp, just thought you should know that.
lucas oil stabilizer or any of that crap is a waste of money! Don't use it, just chanfge the ****** oil every 3k and check it often.
have you put 6 port sleeves in it yet?!!! waht are you waiting for?!

I was planning on it, but then I got my truck and parked the 7 for about a year. I've pulled it back out now... the sleeves are not too far off in the future...
