Tune-up on 1995 7.4L 454

[canada randy]

Purchasing 1995 2700scr 454 Mercruiser 7.4L. What sould i do for tune-up? Previos owner only changed fluids. I,m guessing points,plugs,wires,rotor,cap,timing.What else? Have to invest in manuals. What should dwell,plug gap,timing and vacuum be at? Thanks

i'm not sure off the top of my head but all that data will be in a good engine manual....don't forget to change all the fluids too...drive oil/engine etc and their associated filters and the impeller to the raw water pump...

since the PO didn't do anything other than fluids..I'd imagine that's pretty much shot..
