This car is OLD, but it has low miles and for the most part it drives great! I realize it needs new spark plugs, but I checked the belts and they look fine. The fluids were recently changed, the radiator was flushed... which other parts shhould I probably replace? the car has 97 k miles on it. thanks!
 
plugs, wires, fuel filter, belts,air filter, and clean out the throttle body/mass airflow sensor.
 
go down to your favorite auto parts store and buy a CHILTON manuel that covers the year of your car and research your maintenance issues and have lots of fun.
 
Upper and lower rad hoses.
Hoses that run from engine to heater core.
PCV valve and air filter.
Cap and rotor and ignition wires.
Use NGK and set to gap listed on white sticker on the underside of the hood.

I used to have a 1984 Civic 1500s. Miss that car.
 
A lot depends on the use of the car. If it has been driven regularly then normal maintenance will suffice. IF it has been parked for years then you need to replace most everything.
 
well tune up can be anything that needs to be replace plugs and air filter most likely best things plug wires and distubur cap and rotor button could be but wouldnt if they was good any parts store wil be glad to help just say im wanting to do a tune up on my honda what do i need an d they wil tell you
