Can anyone tell me what would a tune up on a 940t with 200k + miles consist of besides your standard plug change?

    cap, rotor, wires, oil change, air and oil filters. Flame trap replacement.
    I'm not a turbo driver, but you'd probably want at least that.

    You mean to tell me that Volvo makes cars that are *NOT* Wagons?!?
    1971 P1800E... Not a wagon, but it's just a donor car for the Amazon..

      Everybody has their idea of what it should consist of. Back in the day it was spark plugs, air filter, and points if it took them. We still just do plugs and a filter on the late model stuff but mostly you try to steer the customer into a proper major service which includes and oil change and possibly a fuel filter too (depending upon the year). If it was my own car and I was doing a "tune-up" I would hang plugs, cap, rotor, wires, valve adjust, air fuel and oil filters, throttle valve service, coolant and brake flush, PCV service, drive belt retension, check the diff and change if it has been 30K,and a tire rotation if it needed it. This is basically a red engine 60K service plus the cap, rotor, wires, and TV service.
