DIY Tune up
I'm a complete newb, and I've never done a tune-up before, if someone doesnt mind taking to time to explain what I need to do in order to do a tune up myself, and what parts I should pick up for the best bang for my buck, I'd greatly appreciate it.....

I have a 97 2.2

Thanks in advance
James

The air filter is on the passenger side right? the filter is about a foot long, half a foot wide?

Just making sure that's the same one you're talking about, if so, I replaced that recently.

Thanks for the list of parts
