One very important thing you missed out......

Do all of the above with much love and care!!

Do not, forget to talk lovingly to said Commer, it's not just a van but very much one of the family!!

Slushy? maybe! but, however if you go about such things with a passion rather than a doctor/patient relationship, it has to be beneficial:D

I have added a few things that may be a good idea.

Renew Air Filter
Clean fuel filter
Clean Flame Trap
Adjust or renew fan belt
Clean Carb filter and float
Torque wheel nuts
Check or replace wiper blades
Check exhaust and joints
Check and tidy wiring
Engine tune up Valves/ timing/ carb/ idle speed etc
