Periodic tune-ups can bring more power back to your E-150 Econoline Club Wagon’s engine.

Engine Tune-Up for Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care offers a range of engine tune-up services for your 1986 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon. One option is the standard Firestone Tune-Up. It includes a complete visual inspection of engine components, installation of new spark plugs, and a lifetime warranty on parts*. A second service option replaces the air and fuel filter in your E-150 Econoline Club Wagon. 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 E-150 Econoline Club Wagon's fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate. This can improve your fuel system’s performance (and therefore, your engine’s performance). Keep in mind that your E-150 Econoline Club Wagon's mileage and maintenance history can uniquely impact its tune-up needs. This means that a tune-up service that’s a great fit for another car may not be optimal for yours. Chat with a Firestone technician before you jump into a specific service to ensure your engine tune-up money is well-spent.

Common Engine Tune-Up Q&A For 1986 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagons

  • When should Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon spark plugs be replaced? Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so. Spark plugs are small but mighty. The spark of electricity that the plug emits across a small gap creates the ignition for the combustion needed to start your car. Without that spark, your car won't start.
  • What do I do if I see a pool of liquid under my Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon? 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 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon 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 have a Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon tune-up done? At your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care! Whether you need Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon service, maintenance, or repairs, our technicians can get the job done.
  • How frequently do the fuel injectors in my Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon need to be cleaned? There is no hard and fast rule on how often fuel injectors should be cleaned, and it can vary based on driving habits and fuel type. Some manufacturers may suggest including a fuel system cleaning in your regular maintenance schedule. Or you may need to clean your fuel injectors as needed if you notice signs of a fuel system problem.
