3.8 L Tune Up

[Effess]

Hi... I was wondering if there were any Ford people out there that could give a newbie advice on a 30000 mile tune-up.

My V6 2002 Mustang Coupe is getting some new tires tommorow, and she needs a little lovin' to get the pep back that she once had.

Im trying to stay under $500 for this, and feel confidant that i can do most of the work myself.

Id like to know any secrets that will make this thing run better. (it runs fair, but I drive like my hair is on fire)

ive done basic stuff like oil changes, brake jobs, and sparkplugs. If yall yall could give me some tips on increasing performance for cheap, and give me a list of things i should include in my tune-up, i sure would appreciate it.

Thanks,

Damien
