Tune-up questions & comments!

[Sooner1970_K10]

*Quick confession* Well I thought I was doing the right thing by replacing my old cracked cab mounts with nice new poly ones but from the posts I have read recently-I couldn't be further from the truth. So I have decided rather than take anything for granted Ill just ask the board members what I should do.

*Questions* Ok, I bought the truck a few months back and I would like to give it a tune-up with quality parts and supplies. Where should I start? It seems to run fine but I have absolutely nothing to compare it to.

Stock 350 engine, 71k original miles, things I should do and things I should not do? Tranny just check fluid level? Should I use some engine gunk run/clean the engine out or no? Check timing? Should I try and adjust the carb-never done one before!

1. Change the air filter, what brand?

2. Oil, synthetic or no, what brand? Oil filter, what brand?

3. Plugs, what brand?

4. Wires, what brand?

5. New distrib cap and points?

6. Is there anything I should look out for, is there anything I have missed that I should do during the tune-up?

Things I have done. I have drained and flushed the radiator, I have replaced the water pump, I have rebuilt all wheel cylinders, I have replaced all drums and pads. I have cleaned the master cylinder resivior(however you spell it, spell check aint helpin) and flushed the brake lines. I have also replaced cab mounts.

Any and all advise is greatly appreciated.
