im doing some reliabilty mods and tune-ups again and had some questions. I already changed my plugs, wires, etc. Now im changing my fuel filter, checking for vaccum leaks, engine timing, and maybe an o2 sensor and tps sensor.

How hard is it to change a fuel filter?

What is the O2 sensor part #, and is it worth changing if it never has been changed in 50k miles? What may i notice if i put a new one on?

What is the TPS part number?

thanks

change the fuel filter.. there's no reason to change the TPS unless it's broken and if the O2 is working properly leave it alone.

Lots of PB Blast, open end wrench and line wrenches. Keeps from rounding off nuts. If it begins to twist or kink its time to cut the lines.

Re: tune up questions

It is really simple, just make sure it is a well vented area, and keep the jack/jackstand safe on the fore front of your mind. I say that because in changing my fuel filter after finishing the job I was getting the jackstands out and the truck fell off the jack. The jack head hit the fuel tank, and also my head as I was reaching for the jackstand under the rear axle, if the jack did not hit the tank, it could have been very bad. So, just remember Be Safe!!
