Default Coming up on 100K miles

Is there anything I need to do for the engine? I mean besides changing the oil and filter regularly what should I do to guarantee another fun 100K on this motor?

Dont beat on it to much, Change the oil on time, clean or change air filter, change fuel filter & make sure your spark plugs n wires are still all good.

I've already cleaned the air filter since I've owned it but im sure its time to do it again. Where arethe fuel filters located? Im mainly concerned about internal components wearing out, when should I start worrying about that?
