Crucial Aspects Of Tuning A Car

- The first auto tires were thinner, similar to bike tires found nowadays.
- There are six primary fluids used by cars regularly to function properly.
- The antilock brake systems are one of the newest inventions for cars.
Tuning up a machine is a pretty important process in any case. For example, a car is a complex machine with many rotating parts working simultaneously. These parts, over time, tend to lose their quality and maybe even start malfunctioning. Thus, it is pretty important to understand what steps to take for tuning up the car.

Here are some extremely important factors which must be monitored on an ongoing basis to avoid any unpleasant experiences while driving: -
Focusing on spark plugs
Spark plugs are one of the most vulnerable yet important parts of the car's engine system. These are primarily responsible for providing ignition to the fuel that is present in the engine. Hence, these plugs should be replaced when the tuning process occurs.

Ignition timing
Ignition timing should be checked for the car if possible. If there is any significant delay or it turns out to be unresponsive, immediate repairs should be done.
Replacing the air filter
The air filter performs a very important task inside the engine. This filter is responsible for preventing unwanted materials from entering the main chamber. If these particles go inside, they will cause misfires or even explosions. The air filter, over time, gets clogged or lose out of its position. It is advisable to either have it cleaned up or replace the filter entirely, which is easy.
Fuel cleaning
The fuel injector can get clogged due to repeated use. There are a few ways to clean it out, which include:
- Using a special fuel injector cleaner that professionals use.
- Focusing on the throttle body. A lot of dirt and debris can get deposited on it, which can cause major problems. That should be cleaned out.
- Lubrication of the throttle plate and body to avoid any future dirt deposition.
- Lubrication of the various moving parts like cylinders and rings.
- Using a deposit cleaner to dissolve the dirt particles.

Benefits of proper tune up
Makes the car more reliable: One of the worst things that could happen to a person is being stranded in the car. Fine-tuning up ensures that the car stays reliable even in adverse conditions.
Increased fuel efficiency: A good tune-up ensures that the distance covered on a given amount of fuel is increased. So, the customer gets an increased fuel efficiency.
Resale value increased: Proper maintenance and tuning up increases the car's value. At reselling time, when the customer is looking to sell the car after a long period of usage, then a car with proper maintenance can ensure more profit for the user.
Reduction of emissions: Improper maintenance of a car harms the environment. Old, dilapidated cars give out more harmful emissions that can be very dangerous.
Regularly tuning up the car will increase its life and deliver an impeccable driving experience.
