    I would do the following:

    engine oil
    tranny oil and filter
    brake fluid
    coolant
    plugs and check wiring
    belt inspection.


    although some says that changing tranny fluid is not necessary at this point, better safe than sorry.
    Beware though.... is Dexron 4 not 3

    May seem a little overkill but fluids are cheaper than repairs

      From what I've read, don't stray away from the stock AC Delco plugs. Apparently our 6's don't seem to like Bosch or NGK plugs for some reason.

        Have you checked your Owners Manual?

          change coolant and trans filter/fluid. Everything this should be fine.

            Plugs are good for 100k miles
            and coolant should be good for 5 years or 150k miles

            as for tranny fluid DEX 6 is what it has to be DO NOT use dex 3

            Remember if "the" and "and" are spelled right its not a genuine Ahuhn post
