Depending on how much you want to psend and/or how much your engine is worn (you should be able to tell by it's behaviour).
Learning some of these the hard way, they best thigns to do for your 4AGE after purchase:
- remove injectors and have them sonic cleaned (important!)
- check distributor cap for damage and replace if neccesary
- replace leads (optional)
- new spark plugs (as needed, can use NGK non-platinum)
- change oil and filter according to engine life (i.e older engine = heavier oil)
- replace air filter (optional)
then if and only if more concerns come up after a few months:
- check valve clearances
- replace timing belt as needed
- check and replace other belts as needed
and then if you wanna spend money:
- replace brake pads
- overhaul clutch slave cylinder
- replace clutch and plate
- adjust/replace suspension
That should give you some things to think about.
