What about the throttle to clean. The dealer keeps asking me if I want to do it. I already did the transfer cases. Plug and wires. Tranny fluid. New air filter and got a Air Doc.

I clean my mass air flow sensor and throttle body every so often. I use the CRC MAF and CRC Throttle Body Cleaner. I would visually inspect them and see how dirty they are, but if you haven't done it before, its super easy and worth doing yourself.

I can't remember off the top what plugs I got--it wasn't delco, not an option at my O'reilly.
Oddly enough, Delco and Motorcraft are my plugs of preference with Champion in there as well.
I wen't with what sounded like the best choice for what was available, as well as the plug wires.
Thanks for the input guys, especially on the TB. I didn't think about it, but I do need to check my $50 factory air filter, so I may as well look at the TB as well.
Also I was surprised when I asked my trans rebuilder to check all the fluids on the last oil change and he didn't recommend replacing any fluids at 67K miles. I figure I should trust him as he should know what the trans, diffs, trans case and crank case need to be happy.

When I did my tune up lets see ah use those E3 plugs there working great for me figure if they last in top fuel dragsters should be ok in 6.0 liter. make sure to check your air filter too. really not much to a tune up on these also inspect your belts it's always a good time to check for wearing.

Yeah, I need a new belt before I start driving across country again. At 70k miles it's got some wear on it now. The air filter looked great which made me happy as those suckers aren't cheap.
New plugs and wires are in, it runs just as good as before I changed them. It's been running good, just wanted to stay on top of these things.

Make sure you replace the ac belt too. They are more prone to going out. Don't know why, but they wear faster
