Change cap and rotor. Only goes on 1 way. Label wires BEFORE you yank them off if you don't have a manual.

Change plugs. Take the rubber retainer out of out sparkplug socket other wise you will never pull it off the plug. Start the plugs by hand with an extension. Careful not to cross thread or over tighten.

Change PCV valve. I believe this is still mounted on the intake manifold under the 2nd runner from left. Hose goes up to Throttle body. If you are mysteriously losing oil, this may be why.

Unless it looks really bad, just get some compressed air and blow off air filter.

Still have energy and money?

Change fuel filter. black canister on fire wall with bolt in the middle of it. Use rags to minimize fuel spray.

I personally drain and replace both the tranny fluid, and antifreeze about every 2 years or so. Cheap prevenative maintenance when you consider the cost of a new tranny or engine. At a minimum check the levels.
