Tune up

[hops]

Pano malalaman kung kelangan mo ng ipa-tune up ang isang sasakyan?
Thanks.

Follow your PMS schedule in your car's manual. Otherwise, have your car checked after every 5T km or 3 mos., whichever comes first.

If you drive your car everyday, you'll "feel" it if its not being responsive or efficient as it was when you first acquired it.

you should do it regularly.

on efi engines though 5k kms is too soon. tsaka palit plugs lang naman yun so every 10k kms is ok with regular plugs. air filter halos ganun din. fuel filter every 30-40k kms. tappets every 40k kms.

one basic question lang po: what checks/adjustments/corrections/replacements are made during tune-up (at the very least)?

and magkano kaya aabutin sa speedyfix?

[speedyfix]

tappet adjustement for 4cyl gas engines is 500.

normally you just check the timing pero aside from replacing the plugs then no other major work is needed.

thanks sir speedyfix... follow up questions lang po: how about things like valve clearance adjustments?

[speedyfix]

adjusting the clearance should be done every 30-40k kms. sabay na yun with the fuel filter.
