Full Engine Tune Up

Here are a few of the most common indicators that your vehicle is ready for Full Engine Tune Up Service:

• A misfiring engine. This occurs when a vehicle’s spark plugs ignite at the wrong time. The cause could be worn out or dirty plugs. Bad plugs may also result in lower fuel economy, difficulty starting and slow acceleration for a vehicle. Most spark plugs should last for about 100,000 miles or more. A dirty, clogged engine air filter is more prone to reduce acceleration rather than affect fuel economy, based on tests performed by the EPA. Since filters get dirty over time, you might not notice a small but continual loss of performance until your car is accelerating noticeably slower. If the filter in your vehicle has not been changed for a couple of years that could very well be part of the problem.
• Engine deposits brought on by low-quality or dirtied fuel can cause drivability issues, and the solution for that may be a fuel system cleaning.
• A lit check engine light signals when something is wrong in your vehicle’s emissions control system. Depending on what the problem is it might also have an effect on fuel economy and engine performance so don’t delay in bringing your vehicle in for Tune Up Service. A malfunctioning oxygen sensor, for example, can prevent the engine’s computer from setting a correct air-fuel mixture – which can make the engine work harder and diminish fuel economy.
• An aging oxygen sensor that has 90,000 miles or more on it might still work efficiently enough that it doesn’t set off the check engine light but could still limit fuel economy. Engine performance may also be decreased by more severe internal problems such as valves that don’t fit properly, worn out piston rings or by limitations in the vehicle’s exhaust system.
