took the montero in for its first tune up since i got it and the news wasn't so great. they did belts, dizzy cap wires, fuel filter,pcv, and the plugs...well kinda turns out one plug is sized in and there not sure they can get it out. also the said i had a brake problems someone in the past did a "hack job" so it needs new calipers and rotors up front. its also dumping oil out the valve gaskets so those need to be done. price estimate is about $1600 and being i paid $1800 for it I'm debating it. it also needs new suspension and tires. i told the mechanic to keep it and try the plug again monday and if its no go i might just sell it. i really like this truck and don't have problem spending the cash on it but if the plug doesn't come out there is no point right? btw its 1990 5sp
