i'd say reverse flush your cooling system if your unsure what coolant was in the car when you got it. I'd also look out for any smoke, at 220,000kms, problems might show up, im watching out for it, mines a 92 2.6L TR with just under 210,000kms. Also make sure your timing chain has been replaced lately (supposed to be done every 100,000kms).
How long have u had the car?

Chains dont need done till they rattle, the third gens have a rubber belt that need changed every 100,000 but you have a chain. Would be worth changing the distributor cap and rotor, also change transmission fluid.
That should do you unless you have specific problems, but check fluid levels, brake fluid, power steering etc

additional things i'd reccomend are...

- replace the fuel filter
- check air filter element. replace if nessasary
- run some cleaner through the throttle body
- check pcv valve is clear. pull it off clear it out with throttle body cleaner if nessasary
- check and adjust the timing

Id add a bottle of moreys oil stabiliser to it.....I havent used it myself (as my car would just BURN the stuff:rant: ) but ive had many many mechanics rave about this product to me so id throw a bottle of that in too
