Lubrication and Tune-up

Does everyone follow the lube guide in the manual (TM 9-8014 for M38A1), and if not, what frequency do you guys use?

Has anyone written a simple, concise "tune up guide" that covers the adjustments/checks, filters, points, plugs, condensor?, etc. instead of having to sift through all the different chapters of the manual?

Perhaps some of the folks have taken the time to consolidate the tuneup and minor adjustments into a single pamphlet. You can simply take the TM 9-8014 and copy the pages that would be included in a periodic complete tuneup and then staple the pages together or put them in a binder. This is probably the best way because you should make at least one walk through the book to become more familiar with the jeep.

The lube charts are based on fleet utilization rates. You should tailor them to how you use the jeep.
