Lost Your Power? You Need A Car Tune Up!
After driving your car for a while, you begin to see or hear small signs that lead you to believe the car needs something more than regular maintenance. Your car begins to slow on acceleration. You see smoke or smell something nasty. The car has small ticks and clanks or you have a check engine light come on. This all may mean you are in need of a car tune up.
Your auto shop will have a machine that can diagnose problems with the engine. It may tell you if a belt is broken or about to need replacing. It can tell you if you are firing on only one cylinder instead of four. It can also tell you if you need new spark plugs. Whatever the diagnosis is, you are probably in need of a tune up for your car.
Call it a make-over for the engine. The engine will need several things during this tune-up and it usually means replacing items with new ones. First, your mechanic will need to know the year, make and model of your automobile. Below is a list that your mechanic will follow to give the engine its make-over.
- Spark plugs need to be replaced;
- The distributor and coils should also be replaced;
- Caps and rings, belts, seals and covers are always good things to replace;
- Change the oil and oil filter; and
- Replace the air filter.
After replacing all of these items your engine should run like new. Once your mechanic gets under the hood of your car, other potential issues may be spotted and taken care of. Your car will run better and get better gas mileage after a tune up.
