One of the prerequisites of a well maintained car is a frequently tuned up engine. If this is not done on a regular basis, the car will cease to be usable in a very short time. Fortunately, there are many car repair shops where you can get an affordable engine tune. On the other hand, you can do minor repairs at home by following these steps.
First off, start by wearing all the necessary safety equipment. This is because needs of engine tuning require that a lot of effort be used along with dangerous tools and chemicals. To prevent unnecessary accidents, you should wear safety goggles, closed leather shoes, high grade latex gloves etc. before starting your engine tune.
The next step is working on the most important parts of the engine. You find that if it is done on a regular basis, you will only need to work on the spark plugs, air filter, distributor cap and rotor. You may also need to replace other parts depending on the situation and engine type.
