If you don't know what tools you need, then you really don't need to be tuning on your cruiser. I know you may need to save money by doing it yourself, but messing with something you don't know about, usually ends up costing you twice as much in the long run. Better to leave this to a mechanic, as he would have all the tools needed. Besides tools are expensive, and someone trying to straighten out what you messed up will cost you dearly! You might be able to tune on it with a basic tool set like the $120 mechanics set that sears has on special. It's a good set, and had most of the basic stuff you might need for doing plugs, wires, cap & rotor. Thats really all you need to do to it. Do yourself a favor and put the same plugs in it that comes in it, and stay away from those high dollar plugs that don't do any better or last as long as what comes in it. Don't try to adjust anything like the timing, the injector system, or idle speed, as all of this is don't by the computer now. Do not try to take the sprk plugs out of a warm engine or you can damage the head. Work on a cold engine with stuff like that. Good luck!!

a set of sockets 8mm-19mm
a set af wrenches 8mm-19mm extentions and universal joints. Put electrical tape around the u-joints from below the square drive to where you attach the ratchet. It will still act like a u-joint but will hold sockets on and angle better. Without the tape the weight of the socket causes it to look like it needs viagra and can make it hard to get the sockets on the bolts,or nuts your trying to reach
A sparkplug socket either 5/8ths or 13/16ths.Not sure which size off the top of my head.
A set of screw drivers,Flat head and phillips head,and Torx.
a test light. And a good Haynes or Chiltons manual. The manual will also tell you the types of tools you will need for certain jobs.

i would guess just a spark plug socket a oil filter clamp to take the filter off a spark plug gapper and thats it really your air filter has snap clamps parts would be oil filter air filter spark plugs maybe wires do an inspection of the insides look for corrosion or anything out of the ordinary if any change all wires windshield fluid check your power steering fluid your brake fluids and if you have an automatic check the dipstick thats about it if you take your time and dont hurry about an hour and a half when you remove the wires and plugs do them one at a time so you dont mix your wires up good luck
