Just check everything. Im a firm believer of 'if it aint broke, dont fix it'. I really wouldnt do anything except filters and oil unless you find something wrong. I dont know how many times I seen people just fix something that they just 'thought' should be replaced only to cause much more grief than if they had left it alone.

I carry an extra Dist. cap + rotor, ignition module, fan belt and spark plug wires in mine.
I agree with if it ain't broke concept, but it can't hurt to carry a spare. I've been to enough places and heard "We don't work on them ferrin cars" to plan ahead.

I always do a complete tuneup on any used car I buy. A new oxygen sensor would be a good idea, new filters, dist cap and rotor, maybe ign. wires. Check rotors and pads. Have front end checked for looseness. Check shocks and struts. Check battery and cables. I would also flush all fluids, engine oil, brake fluid, clutch, transmission and coolant. What model of 88 Fiero do you have?
i agree with roger.change the oil and tranny fluid. keep in mind that some fiero parts r hard to come by,so if u see something u might need later,buy it and store it away for later. myself ive got some "might need" parts in my garage just in case,that way i dont spend 3 months lookin to find a part when something does break
