Hey all!

I've had my truck for a couple months now that I bought with 113k on the dash. I want to give it a good tune up and I'm going to start ordering parts here and there and spend a whole day on it. I don't know much of the history on it as far as service records go so I figured if I did most of it now at least I would know. Here's the list I've thought up so far:

Spark plugs
Plug boots (probably not COPs because they're expensive and I've read I don't need to do them with the plugs?)
Fuel filter
Air filter
Fuel Pump Drive Module (the case cracked off when doing my exhaust and it's throwing a code that's not setting the CEL off)
Oil change
Differential fluid change
Transmission fluid change
Coolant flush

If anyone knows of anything to add please feel free! I'll also be taking any tips and suggestions from anyone and everyone!

Also I have been looking at plugs and have found about a 10 dollar difference between two part numbers for my truck? I plan to use the motorcraft plugs and the numbers I have found are SP-505 and SP-515. What's the difference in those plugs because I can get the 505s for about 3 dollars a plug and the cheapest I have found the 515s are about 11 a plug. What's the difference between them other than the 515s are double platinum?

Thanks for any input in advance guys and gals!

A few things you may also want to consider:

Transmission filter
Front/rear differential oils & transfer case oil (if 4X4)
Brake fluid flush

Thanks for that! I figured id do the transmission filter when I did the fluid just to make it new. I didn't even think about the transfer case fluids though! Thanks for that and I'm going to need new pads probably too so I might as well go ahead and do the fluids there too. This is starting to add up quickly lol

I'm going to start tackling some of it this week and gradually get it all done hopefully through the first month of my summer vacation.
