The Almighty Tune-Up Rip-offs
This is an outline taken directly from the chapter "The
Almighty Tune-Up Rip-offs" from the book "Car
Secrets Revealed".
Engine tune ups can be an overpriced rip-off. If you
own a car built in the mid 80s it probably does not need to
have a tune-up.
Almost Every Car Built Now Is Run By A Computer And Does
Not Need The Tune Up That We Are Accustomed To Paying For.
Old habits die hard and we fall into the grandfather
syndrome and waste a lot of money on needless repairs and
engine tune ups. In earlier years cars had carburetors,
distributors and other auto parts that had to be tuned,
adjusted and maintained periodically by hand by your auto
mechanic.
Today there are no more distributor caps with points or
condensers and no more carburetors to adjust. Todays new
cars are fuel injected with high performance ignition systems
and fuel injection systems all controlled by a computer that
monitors your car engines performance.
Your car engines computer actually adjusts adjusts the
necessary components to maximize fuel economy, engine
performance and exhaust emissions. So what is left to tune-up
and how do you avoid getting ripped-off, that is what this
chapter is all about.
 |
What you should be looking at when you take your car into
one of these tune up shops. |
|
|
How read the wording quick tune up shops use and what it
really means for you and your wallet. |
|
|
What type of work tune-up shops really do and how verify
that your car does not need a tune up and just some basic
maintenance. |
|
|
Where to find the information that will tell you what work
you can and cannot do on your car. |
|
|
What to ask your auto mechanic to check if your car is not
running well. If you ask for a tune-up that is what
you will get and there is a very good chance that this
will not solve your problem. |
|
|
Why poor fuel economy probably will not be fixed with a
tune-up. There are just to many possible reasons why
you are getting bad gas mileage. |
|
|
Why your car may be getting poor fuel economy and what can
you do about it. |
|
|
Why you are wasting your money buying fuel injector
cleaner. |
|
|
When you should be using fuel injector cleaner. |
|
|
What you should do before you go out and get an expensive
fuel injector purge. This inexpensive idea may fix
the problem you have with your fuel injectors. |
|
|
What you should check before you ask for a tune up if your
car seems to surge or hesitate and you are experiencing
high oil consumption. |
|
|
If your engine stalls without warning chances are that
this is not a performance problem and a tune up will not
fix this but is easy to find the problem and get it
repaired. |
|
|
Why a tune up is not going to help you if your cars engine
lacks power, this could be a multitude of problems but
there is one very good source of your problem and it is
not in your cars engine. |
|
|
The Great Mileage Scam. Why you appear get great
mileage and better fuel economy after getting a tune up. |
|
|
Carbureted do need tune-ups and this can increase your
fuel mileage by up to 11% but there is a cover up that
auto mechanics use all the time if they cannot get your
engine running smoothly. |
|
|
Why these tricks your auto mechanic will use to get your
engine running smoothly will actually give you worse fuel
economy and you will fail your next smog or emissions
test. |
|
|
If you have a carbureted engine your auto mechanic will
replace several parts that do not have to be replaced
unless they have 50,000 miles on them. They say that
this is insurance, but it is really a waste of your money. |
|
|
Why fuel injector cleanings are mostly a waste of time and
money. |
|
|
There are some very valid reasons why you should have you
fuel injectors cleaned, but never as often as most auto
mechanics say it should be done. |
|
|
Why many automotive repair shops recommend fuel injector
cleanings as a cure for many unrelated performance
problems. |
|
|
If you have a clogged fuel injector you only have to clean
that one fuel injector, not the entire set of fuel
injectors. A good auto mechanic should be able to
tell you which fuel injector is the bad one. |
|
|
Why many auto repair shops will try and talk you into a
tune up after you replace your car battery. |
|
|
Why this scam works so well and why you do not need a tune
up after replacing your car battery. |
|
|
In many tune up cases you should not have to pay for
diagnosis or repairs to your car. You can get more

your car is being repaired the chances of you being ripped off
