Im I missing something?

So I was replacing my fuel injectors the bottom rubber bushing that goes in got stuck. As I was looking at the injectors I see rust on them and really old looked like they have never been replaced it sad to see that my rig wasn't taken care by the previous owner. Im doing a full tune up to see if that's the problem causing my rig not getting its full power by doing the spark plugs, fuel filter, drained out the old gas (was sitting for about 6 months) also planning on putting a new gas pump (good thing I have one laying around) changing oil (thinking of using high mileage oil) oil filter, air filter and new spark plug wire. If Im missing something please let me know I basically have knowledge from working on Hondas all my life but new to the 4x4 scene so its a bit different bit loving it. Attachment 91423

You didn't mention distributor cap and rotor, I'd replace those as well.

Thanks for the advice man good thing I have a 4runner sr5 sitting in my back yard that I use for parts. I will be getting the distributor rotor and cap. Was running excellent until I spun a bearing on my sr5. when I emptied out the gas from the tank it looked hideous, didn't even look like gas it looked more like dark yellow with dirt. so as we speak Im running to auto zone to purchase my fuel filter.

Did you drop the tank? If it's rusted inside it will cause you problems in the future. My old 83 pickup had a rusted tank clogged fuel filters constantly. Finally replaced the tank.

Never even thought about that but now that you mention it I will take a good look at it for any rust what so ever to replace it if it needs to. I'm assuming it will have to be replaced just by looking at the filthy gas it had.
