Default What to expect at 90k Service or Tune up.

I have only owned my 97 Disco I for about a year now. She is in need of a tune up I believe. The engine is skipping just bit when its idle. Almost unnoticable but its there. I badly need a list (1-10) of things that should be done at a land rover tune up. I assume plugs and wires but what else. Change and flush all fluids?

Wow anything you guys could tell me what help at this point.

97 Disco I 4.0

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!

Get the skip diagnosed first. Then worry about the service.

besides with an old vehicle, a 90k service may need alot more then just changing fluids. you may have lots of leaks that have to be taken care of first.

And no install of new plugs. Thats done at sixty.

save the money get it diagnosed first. It will be alot cheaper in the long run.
you can know whats wrong before you waste money on a service when for example you have a leaking water pump or intake gaskets.

Thank you very much. How much is it to diagnose the problem?

I am a chick with little technical experience and just dont want to get burned.
