How many miles on the car ? If your approaching the 100k mark,you can replace your O2s.
fuel filter spark plugs wires change oil and filter coolant/flush with a water hose tranny fluid and tranny filter (if it an auto) Seafoam in gas tank (good results for me) differential fluid new PCV valve air filter (as mentioned) clean MAF visually check fan belt test alternator and battery replace IAC If you got a Haynes manual, I think they give you a lits of things to do a visual inspection on.

Yeah ,definitely get the 02's if you can afford it. They are way overdue. With the OBD2 vehicles they are recommended to be replaced every 100k. Some peeps do it around 80-90k ,but 100k is like the manufacturer standard.
Fuel injectors would be nice.Or you can maybe have your old ones cleaned. Just about everything else is really basically about performance. Meaning if your shocks/struts are good then dont mess with em. Same with the motor. If its not smoking ,ticking ,chattering or leaking ,leave it be. 130k isnt a lot of miles when properly maintained.
