Re: tune up
How many miles on your car? Is there any sign of misfiring, hesitation, stumbling, etc that would lead you to believe that the Optispark distributor is a problem? If not, you may not need to replace the cap and rotor. And, if you do suspect the Opti is faulty, its generally a good idea to replace the entire unit, not just the cap/rotor. The base of the Opti contains the optical sensor/electronics, and the really poor quality bearing, so replacing the cap may not solve your problems, just delay them.
Plugs and wires are always a good idea. Add a PCV valve to the list. Clean the throttle body, including the IAC passages and motor. If other things haven't been changed in a while - tranny fluid, differential fluid, brake fluid, coolant flush/refill, oil/filter.
