What is the difference between taking a vehicle in for a "tune up" and just in for "regular maintenance"?

When I take my truck in for "regular maintenance" I usually just go by the service manual that the dealer gave me that has a list of things that are done every 5,000 km's.

Should I be doing more than what this manual says to do?

Thanks

Allow me to recommend a set of Autolite ignition engineered sparkplugs for your truck. These are manufactured with the finest materials and the utmost attention to workmanship. Autolite pioneered the resisitor and extended tip sparkplugs. They are known the world over for quality. Whatever your choice, you are always right with Autolite.

Good night.

Right on Harlow, lol!
I use Autolite 3923s, Borg Warner cap and rotor, this time I got the JBA 9mm power cables, but haven't installed them yet so I can't tell you how I like them. I really like the Autolites, noticed a big difference in idle and start. I bought all of that from Speedtweaks for about $75.

97 3.9 CC Sport. Black. Auto 3.55, Quick D Intake, JBA Stainless headers, Autolite 3923s, stainless Borla Turbo XL, V8 TB, FMS 19 lb fuel injectors, Have, but not installed:Brass cap & rotor, JBA 9mm cables, Borla tip, IAT adjuster,Boyd Coddington Smoot
