Tune Into Your Dodge Caravan

Is it tune-up time? If you usually wait until your car has an issue to take it in for service, it could be time for a new way of doing things, particularly if you want to keep your 1985 Dodge Caravan in tip-top shape. Periodic tune-ups can bring more power back to your Caravan’s engine. Tune-ups give your engine a boost in efficiency, so you can enjoy improved fuel economy and lower emissions. When you follow the guidelines specified by Dodge for your vehicle’s tune-up schedule, you invest in your Caravan's long-term health and engine performance.

Engine Tune-Up for Dodge Caravan

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care offers a range of engine tune-up services for your 1985 Dodge Caravan. The first is the standard Firestone Tune-Up. 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 Caravan. Specifically, we replace the fuel filter and air filter. The third tune-up option is a fuel system cleaning service, which is a three-step process that removes varnish, dirt, and carbon deposits on your Caravan's fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate. This goes a long way in boosting your fuel system’s overall performance. Here’s something to remember when choosing services: the mileage and service history of your Caravan can determine what kind of service it needs. This means that a tune-up service that’s a great fit for another car may not be optimal for yours. Ask one of our technicians what your vehicle needs, based on your driving habits and your car’s current condition.

Questions About 1985 Dodge Caravan Engine Tune-Ups

  • When should Dodge Caravan 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 should I do if I see leaks under my Caravan? 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 Dodge Caravan engine? Hard stops and starts can lead to premature wear on your engine’s components. Lighten up that lead foot and opt for steady, fluid starts and stops instead. Your engine (and your passengers!) will thank you.
  • Where can I get a tune-up for my Dodge Caravan? At your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care! Whether you need Dodge Caravan service, maintenance, or repairs, our technicians can get the job done.
  • How frequently do I need to get my Dodge Caravan fuel injectors cleaned? Factors like fuel type and driving conditions can affect how frequently you need to clean your Caravan fuel injectors. Some manufacturers recommend a fuel system cleaning as part of routine maintenance, or as needed if your vehicle is showing signs of poor fuel system performance.
