Engine Tune-up

When your car is properly tuned, the ignition system, fuel system, emission system and the computer system are all working together. This results in peak efficiency and optimum performance. A drivability problem is not always solved by a standard tune-up. The problem may be unrelated to a tune-up and may require a comprehensive diagnostic service. Trust Lamb's Tire & Automotive Centers for expert maintenance tune-ups and engine diagnostic services.

Lamb's Maintenance Engine Tune-Up service includes installing new spark plugs, set timing (if applicable), adjust carburetor (if applicable), inspect secondary wires, distributor cap, rotor, PCV valve, coil, and crankcase vent filter.
