so i am purchasing a 2000 z28... what are some basic things i should do to the car to make it run better in general? (car has 58,000 miles and is 6spd)

*oil change
*air filter
*fuel filter
*injection cleaner (fluid that you put a bottle of it in a full tank or something to clean fuel system)

do you guys ever change your transmission fluid or differential fluid (and at what miles)?


any ideas?

 

On a car without a complete car maintenance history I think you should change all the fluids. Brake, cooling, power steering, trans, rear end ( if it has posi add GM posi additive). They don't have to be done all at once, but then you know exactly how many miles are on them, it buys peace of mind and never hurts the car. The owners manual may say you haven't reached the recommended interval on some items but you don't know how it was driven before. Besides it gives you an up close look at your new baby.

Good luck Chuck....

 

thanks. thats not a bad idea.
