200K Mile Tune Up. Recommendations?

[13igNutz]

I am going to be doing a major tune up on my g/f 2000 V6 4Runner tomorrow. I plan on changing fuel filter, air filter, engine oil, engine oil filter, pcv valve, thermostat, spark plugs, spark plug wires. How much will a complete set of spark plug wires cost at the dealership?

I also plan on cleaning the carbon on the intake. Is there a preferred solution for carbon cleaning? Anything spray or liquid I could buy at the local Autozone or Kragen autoparts?

What other maintenance checkups/replacement do you guys recommend?

Thanks in advance for all the help. Im actually looking eager to start tomorrow.

1) you forgot the distrib cap & rotor
2) get some good aftermarket 8-9mm wires

and slightly more than a tune-up but also important:

3) what about the tranny/t-case/diff fluids ? they need changing too (at least check the levels)
4) and coolant, that should be flushed & changed every 2-3 yrs
5) and if you're really eager, brake fluid should be flushed every 2-3 yrs also

tune up major 99 toyota 4runner?

What do i do?

well i just did a major tune up on my 4runner i bought and you are on the right track this is what i would suggest.

1. Cap and rotor
2. plugs and wires
3. if you are doing pvc valve do the grommet on there as well.
4. fuel filter, oil filter, air filter
5. gear oil if manual, tranny fluid if automatic
6. check tire pressure and brake pads
7. check all fluids
8. change oil
9.seafoam in gas tank, brake booster and if you are changing oil in less than 100 miles than pour some sea foam in the crankcase.

im curious as to why you are changing the thermostat? is it bad or acting up? i dont think you need to bother with this for now. as for a set of wires i got mine at oreillys and paid $45 and a stealership will be more than that.
good luck
