Complete Honda Civic Tune up
 
I'm about to do a complete tune up on my civic I wanna make sure I don't miss anything. This is what's on my list so far.
1. Oil Change
2. Spark Plugs and Wires.
3. Fuel Filter
4. Radiator Hoses
5. Air Filter
6. Brake Rotors, Pads, and Lines
7. Timing Belt
Well this is all that comes to mind, would appreciate it if someone helped me get it all so I don't wanna miss anything, thx.

1. Consider using synthetic 5W30 and also change the filter.
2. Add distributor cap and rotor replacement; check the spark plug gaps.
4. Drain and replace the coolant also.
6. I would not think that brake line replacement is necessary, unless damaged. You should also flush the brake fluid.
7. The timing belt job is not easy if you are not experienced. Removal of the crankshaft pulley is the difficult step and requires either a special tool ($25 on Amazon) or a very good impact wrench. When you do the job, also replace the water pump, tensioner, plug seals, and drive belts.

valve cover gasket set would be a good idea too
it'd be a good idea to replace transmission fluid (just do it yourself)
