Enhance Chevrolet Caprice Performance with a Tune-Up
Is it tune-up time? If you tend to ignore your car until something goes wrong, it might be time to change your ways, especially if you want your 1996 Chevrolet Caprice’s engine to last for a long time. Periodic tune-ups can bring more power back to your Caprice’s engine. They're designed to help your engine start easier and run more efficiently, which can mean better fuel economy (a win for you) and lower emissions (a win for the environment). When you take your car for regular engine tune-ups as recommended by Chevrolet, you invest in your Caprice's long-term health and engine performance.
Routine Engine Tune-Up Service for Your Chevrolet Caprice
Your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care location has several options to choose from when it comes to Chevrolet Caprice engine tune-up services. The standard Firestone Tune-Up is one service option. This includes the installation of new spark plugs and a visual inspection of your engine’s components, plus a lifetime warranty on parts*. Another service option pays special attention to the filters in your Caprice. Specifically, we replace the fuel filter and air filter. Yet another service is a fuel system cleaning process, which involves removing varnish, dirt, and carbon deposits that have built up inside the fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate in your Caprice. This can improve your fuel system’s performance (and therefore, your engine’s performance). Here’s something to remember when choosing services: the mileage and service history of your Caprice can determine what kind of service it needs. A one-size-fits-all engine tune-up procedure doesn’t necessarily exist. Chat with a Firestone technician before you jump into a specific service to ensure your engine tune-up money is well-spent.
Where to Get a Tune-Up for Your Chevrolet Caprice
Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for your next 1996 Caprice engine tune-up. Not sure when you’re due for a tune-up? Use Chevrolet’s recommended maintenance schedule as a reference point, or schedule an appointment ASAP if you notice any of these signs: shaking while the engine is idling, poor fuel economy, an illuminated check engine light on your dashboard, or a knocking sound when the engine is running.

1996 Chevrolet Caprice Engine Tune-Up Q&A
-
When should Chevrolet Caprice spark plugs be replaced? When it’s time to replace the spark plugs, don’t delay. These small (but vital!) parts provide the electric spark that your car needs in order to start, and old spark plugs can prevent your car from starting at all. Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so.
-
What do I do if I see a pool of liquid under my Chevrolet Caprice? Puddles could indicate an oil leak, coolant leak, or brake fluid leak– all of which can critically hurt your engine. Have your engine inspected as soon as you spot a pool of liquid in your usual parking spot.
-
Are hard starts and stops bad for my Chevrolet Caprice engine? Hard starts and stops put extra wear and tear on engine components. Smooth, gradual starts and stops, on the other hand, are a great way to help your engine run better. They can also help maximize your fuel economy.
