well I just hit 60k and I was wondering what should I tune up at this amount of milage. Just assuming it was never tuned( I am pretty sure it was but I want to be safe and change what I need to) So what do I need to change fluids, belts, etc.?
 
Change all belts. Set timing, new plugs, wires, filters, fluids, pcv valve, change oil (if you havent recently)

Thats what I would do anyhow. The timing and other belts is the major thing here.

I would let a shop do the belts and timing. Unless you know what youre doing. Ive done 2 timing belts so far and its just a big pain in the arse. For me anyway I think having one of the most critical parts of the motor done right is worth the money. (around 700 including parts and labor)

Also when you change the belts make sure to get a new water pump.

Check out www.vfaq.com Im sure there is info on there.
