Hi all

It's time to reveal my age a bit as my TR6 is only the 4th car I've ever
owned.  All previous being of the Honda/all you do for a tune-up is
change the plugs, type of car.

So, what does one do to tune up a TR6?  Plugs, points, condenser,
valves,....?  Adjust, replace, polish,...?  I know the words but not
what to do to them.  Can someone give me a URL to a step-by-step guide
so I can eliminate some of the coughing and hesitating my car does
before it's warmed up?

What tools am I gonna need to beg/borrow/steal to accomplish this?

I've fixed everything electrical that I can find on the car except
fixing the gearbox switch for the OD, just because it's a pain to do.
It's second on the list of to-dos though but I think a tune-up is easier
so I'll do that first.

Again thanks to all.
