Default VERY general maintenance question...

Ok guys here is a VERY general maintenance question...

My ti has 78k miles on the clock. It runs ok and I just need to keep it running for 2 more years. I have to finish restoring my house and once finished the new Toyota FT-86 should be out.

So my question is: what preventative things should I do but not be too over the top as to waste money? Keep in mind I have had this car for 4 years and have only done oil changes. (Yes, I suck)

My list:
Radiator Flush
Bleed the brakes
Tranny fluid
Major tune up

Can anyone suggest anything else of importance?

by bleed the brakes I'm assuming you mean drain the brake fluid and replace it with new fluid?

I'd also just rebuild the cooling system, if you replace everything it would probably be around $400 in parts

diff fluid couldn't hurt either

Air Filter

And if you want go ahead and replace the valve cover gaskets and oil filter housing profile gasket. I would suggest some other things but you only have 78k miles and most stuff should still be holding up. Maybe change the power steering fluid. But to let you know our car uses ATF fluid for the power steering.
