Well u got spark plugs and wires, distrubitor cap and rotor, a pcv valve(i believe thats what its called), replace or clean fuel injectors, u can do a radiator flush and the 1 thing i think makes a world of difference is new O2 sensors.

There is no PCV valve on a 4.0L, just a CCV. Yes there is a difference.
