When should I get a tune up?
There’s no one size fits all answer to this. Checking your manual is a good place to start. The manufacture will most likely suggest how often a tune up should be performed on your specific vehicle. Generally an auto tune up is done at 30k, 60k and 90k miles. If your gas millage is dropping, your car doesn’t want to start like it used to or you feel a jeering when you shift these are all signs your car is craving a tune up. The mechanics at Uncle Al’s Automotive Services can help you decide a schedule that works best for you and your car.

While cars now have computers instead of mechanical ignition systems, they still require maintenance. A tune up now days will involve inspecting your car, checking belts, spark plugs, flushing liquids, testing your battery, checking your tires, checking your brakes and much more.
