Is it tune-up time? If you're the type of driver who waits for something to go wrong with your vehicle, it could be time for a new way of doing things, especially if you drive a 1988 Ford E-150 Econoline. Routine engine tune-ups can bring power back to your E-150 Econoline. Tune-ups give your engine a boost in efficiency, which can lead to lower emission levels and better fuel economy.

Engine Tune-Up for Ford E-150 Econoline

Your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care location has several options to choose from when it comes to Ford E-150 Econoline 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 E-150 Econoline. 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 E-150 Econoline. The result? Restored fuel system performance. Here’s something to remember when choosing services: the mileage and service history of your E-150 Econoline can determine what kind of service it needs. A one-size-fits-all engine tune-up procedure doesn’t necessarily exist. Ask one of our technicians what your vehicle needs, based on your driving habits and your car’s current condition.

Questions About 1988 Ford E-150 Econoline Engine Tune-Ups

  • What happens if my Ford E-150 Econoline spark plugs fail? 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 should I do if I see leaks under my E-150 Econoline? 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 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 tune-up done? At your closest Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our experienced technicians offer Ford E-150 Econoline service, maintenance, and repairs.
