AUTO REPAIR SHOP & DISCOUNT TIRES
North Ft. Myers, Florida
We all know our cars need tune-ups…but what does a tune-up include? And why is it important to keep your car running? Your mechanic completes all of these steps during a tune-up:
■Replace the fuel filter
■Clean and/or replace the spark plug
■Inspect and/or replace spark plug wires
■Replace rotor and distributor cap
■Adjust valves as needed
■Check and/or replace all belts
■Check and replenish all fluids
■Change oil and oil filter if it’s time
■Replace the air filter
■Adjust the clutch in manual transmission cars
■Inspect, clean, and add water to the battery if needed
■Replace the PCV valve
■Change the points and condenser on cars made in 1978 or earlier
■Check and adjust ignition timing for cars made in 1980 or earlier
Most cars need a tune-up every two years or every 30,000 miles, whichever comes first. You may be tempted to skip your tune-up if your car seems to be running fine, but it’s an indispensible step in car maintenance. During a tune-up, your mechanic has the opportunity to inspect all the systems of your car and catch small mechanical problems before they cause serious damage.
Regular tune-ups are a vital part of preventative maintenance. They increase your vehicle’s efficiency and extend the life of your car.
