  • Change transfer case fluid
  • Change front and rear diffy fluids
  • Change motor oil and filter
  • Change power steering fluid
  • Change engine coolant
  • Replace radiator hoses and heater hoses
  • Flush and bleed brake fluid
  • Replace air filter
  • Replace PCV valve
  • Lube rear drive shaft components
  • Repack front wheel bearings
  • Replace fan belt
  • Align front end
  • Clean EGR valve and EGR intake tube
  • Clean MAF sensor
  • Replace fuel filter
  • Replace spark plugs


We'll add more later.

Thanks Mark, This is awesome. I know she had regular oil and filter service and had new rotors and pads installed along with brand new tires 2k miles ago, but thats it. I will get to work on everything else on your list. its a good starting point i suppose. next week i'll be bringing her to an isuzu dealer 75 minutes from me. one good thing, the oil level is unchanged since i took ownership.

what is egr valve and intake tube?
what is bleed brake fluid?

Thanks again helpful sir!!!!!!
