3- pcv valve (if you have one)
4- fuel filter
5- plugs (check gap 1st)
6- plug wires (1 at a time)
7- cap (transfer wires one at a time, number the cap with white marker for ease)
8- points & condenser
10- check radiator, transmission, steering box and differential fluids;
11- check brakes (fluid level, leaks, pads/ shoes, springs, drums, cables, adjustments)
12- inspect exhuast for leaks
13- check shocks
14- lube all 24 lube points for suspension, linkage, pedals and hinges.
15- check bulbs- brake, headlight, turn signals, dash, interior; adjust and replace as necessary.
16- check your wiper blades.
17- check tire pressure and wear, rotate tires.
18- ride around the block

Heck, that ain't a tuneup. That's a full blown PM.
