Why does my car need a tune up?

Depending on your specific engine your car should have a tune up anywhere from 30,000 to 90,000 miles. When a tune up is performed the spark plugs and wires/boots are changed. The spark plugs are an important component that allows your engine to perform to the best of it's ability. When they are worn it can cause run-a-bility issues. 



If it's been awhile since you had a tune up on your engine give us a call or request an appointment online and we will let you know how often and when it should be done. 


Happy Adventures,
