So I get out of the Navy in about four months and we are going to towe my wifes Aveo from Everett Washington to Albuquerque New Mexico. I have already changed my spark plugs but I was wondering what other maintance I should do? My F150 has 120,xxx. i plan on doing a tranny flush and the radiator flush as well. Also when my truck was at the dealer they said I needed to flush my power stearing and brake fluid. Can you guys think of anything else that is needed to be done.

 

Air filter and fuel filter for good measure, inspect all hoses and belt, and hit up the lube points.

I wouldn't worry too much about it, if the vehicle has been maintained.

 

Well the truck seems in good shape and runs good but I have only owned her for about 2 weeks now so I dont know how she has been maintained.

 

Front and rear diff oil change never hurts. Fuel filter is cheap and easy. Serpentine belt???

The tranny flush??? I hear bad things about doing that on high mileage vehicles that haven't had it done since new. They say it loosens up too much crud and plugs things up.
A simple tranny oil and filter change may be better.

All the other things are the same things I have been doing to mine since getting it and not knowing the maintenence history.
