Best Answer

In an older vehicle you replace points, plugs, condensor, rotor, distributor cap, plug wires, set the gap on the new plugs, set the points gap, set the engine timing and run a compression test. On a newer vehicle it's often just plug wires, plugs and an oxygen sensor. Some of the newer cars still use a distributor cap and rotor, so a tune-up varies from one vehicle manufacturer to the next.
