Full tune up: ignition cap & rotor, spark plugs & wires, adjust valve lash, fuel filter, PCV, replace primary O2 sensor.

^ basically ideal for a used car you just bought. Gotta be sure it's in working order and this way you do. It's part of the process to narrow down issues along the way.

Maybe list what you did so suggestion for additional maintenance can be added.

Automatic or manual and 25 isn't bad for these cars... Depending on if it is city or highway and what speed on the highway
