I have a 91 2.3 N/A. I'm about 600-700 miles from 150K miles. I know the timeing belt should be replaced, and a good tune up and oil change and the such wouldn't hurt.

Is there anything else I should do or have checked?

Thanks in advance.

Nic

well does it leak any oil? A good thing to do might be to change the rear main seal, just to prevent it from going bad eventually. The longblock it self should be fine, its really the things attached to it that cause the problems.Sensors tend to go bad with age, how many have been replaced and when? A new 02 sensor would be a good idea if it hasnt been done too long ago, and a good cleaning of the MAF, along with a check of the TPS voltage and such, and you should be fine

It's always leaked oil. But not enough to make me add oil between oil changes.

Real seal, it's been maybe 10K-20K miles ago it was replaced along with my auto tranny.

Haven't had problems with any sensors, and to my knowledge, I don't think I've changed any since I had the car. I got the car when it was about 58K miles back in 1998. Other then the tranny going out, I haven't had any major problems.

I'll see about changeing some sensors and have the MAF cleaned and the TPS looked at.

Thanks for the advice.
