Engine Tune Up

A Spark Plug is the firing point in which the electricity is past through a gap to ignite the fuel/air mixture inside the engine (combustion chamber).   Spark Plug Wires - need to be changed every time a tune up is performed. With today's ignition systems, the running voltage and amperage is higher than ever; even more reason to service your spark plugs wires before they burn out and cause a misfire.  An ignition rotor is used to relay the electrical spark from the ignition coil to the terminals on the distributor cap and then on the sparkplug wires and eventually to the spark plugs. Some cars and trucks do not use a ignition rotor so inspect your vehicle before you start.  Fuel filters will last up to 5,000 miles or more depending on the type of driving you do. Make sure to replace your fuel filter at regular intervals to insure the safety of your vehicles fuel injection system.  A distributor cap is the component that allows the ignition spark from the ignition coil and separates it into the individual spark plugs as it rotates inside the ignition distributor. Some cars and trucks do not use a ignition rotor so inspect your vehicle before you start.  Air filters will last up to 3,000 miles or more depending on the type of driving you do.  Contact Montgomery BCC Transmissions to schedule your next tune up.
