plugs, wires, oil change, oil filter, fuel fiter, radiator flush, all fluid flush, brake......

if you let dealer do it, probably $300-$500 depends

I HIGHLY recommend you clean out your car's throttle body:

Throttle body cleaning...how to?

i think you should do valve adjustment yourself. it is not a very difficult thing to do all you need to get is a set of feeler gauges.

i'm at 140k in my 92 si 4ws and had never had it serviced. (a couple quick fixes is all but no tuneups). i always replaced plugs, wires, etc myself. i had the timing belt done previously, but went into the dealer to get it up to speed and running smoother. he showed me a ~$350 servicing for your and my mileage that included a lot of what i'd already done. instead i decided on just a valve adjustment and cleaning the injection system, and $170 later it runs 100% better. what a difference! feels like i gained 20 hp back - no lagging from the line during a start. i know little about cars, but this worked for my 92.

at 90k your cam and balancer belts and your water pump need to be replaced (if not already done). Dont even think of missing out on doing these

You got my PM, right? I DO want the middle pieces. Do you have any other black interior pieces?

Peace,
