Times are changing...cars are changing. One of the biggest changes in today's
automotive industry is the perception of a "tune-up." Ask 10 vehicle
owners their definition of a tune-up and chances are there'll be 10 different
answers. The classic "tune-up" was once the heart of the automotive
business and contrary to some beliefs; today's modern vehicles still need
tune-ups to keep them performing at the most efficient levels.
The tune-up was historically associated with the routine replacement of key
ignition system parts like spark plugs and ignition points, along with some
basic adjustments to help "tune" the engine. Mounting pressure
for increased fuel economy and lower emissions drove the car manufacturers
to adopt electronics and to do away with ignition points in the '70s, along
with the carburetor in the middle '80s. This eliminated the need for the
replacement and adjustment of a growing number of ignition and fuel system
parts.
Skyway Auto Tune inspects the following items for your tune up:
Some vehicles need a tune-up every two years or 48,000
kilometers, while some new vehicles can go as long as 161,000 kilometers
before needing one. It’s important to check your owner’s manual
for your vehicle’s
standard maintenance schedule and take it in for routine care.
Be
sure that if you don’t plan to do the job yourself, you take your vehicle
to a qualified auto repair shop. Skyway Auto Tune will be able to explain
exactly what needs to be done and fast.
To help ensure good performance, fuel economy and emissions, Skyway Auto
Tune also recommends that motorists take the time necessary to become familiar
with their vehicle from every aspect. Study the owner's manual to become
thoroughly acquainted with the operation of all systems. Pay special attention
to the indicator lights and instruments.
