A tune up is as important as an oil change. Regular oil changes and tune ups will make a difference the life of your car.

A dirty fuel filter and a dirty air filter will most likely, reduce your fuel economy about 20 percent. Maintaining tune ups and using quality fuel are a great way to increase your fuel mileage.

Is your car stalling? When I hit my gas pedal my car runs rough. Why is it hard to get my car started? While these are probably symptoms of a needed tune up there could be other issues.

Check your manufacturer manual for suggested tune up maintenance. While new cars today can drive anywhere from 25,000 to 100,000 miles before needing a tune up.

As with any car maintenance frequency, it seems like, it will probably depend greatly, on how you drive your vehicle. Driving your vehicle in a safe manner and keeping it maintained with tune ups,

oil changes, tire rotations and other maintenance items, will most definitely help your vehicle stay safe and last longer.
