Tuneup needed??

Any way to tell if previous owner did a tune up yet? I have put 5k on it so far and it now has 38k on it, but was just curious if it still has the same plugs in. There any way to tell if you need new ones?

you don't need plug until 50-60 k miles.
I would worry about changing the tranny, brake PS fluid , anti freeze

Any way to tell if that is needed or would u just recommend doing it regardless? Not so up to par on these things so any help would be great. I noticed some transmission flushes for sale at local midas's and monroe's maybe ill do that?

lick the plugs....if they sting they are fine

you should go ahead and change the oil, tranny oil, anti-freeze, pcv, bleed the brakes, and the air filter. it may cost a few, but then you know you did it right and you will be on a schedule///
