Tune Into Your Jeep Grand Cherokee

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 Jeep Grand Cherokee’s engine to last for a long time. Regular engine tune-ups can optimize your Grand Cherokee’s power on the road. They're designed to help your engine start easier and run more efficiently, so you can enjoy improved fuel economy and lower emissions. When you take your car for regular engine tune-ups as recommended by Jeep, you can rest assured you’re investing in your Grand Cherokee’s long-term engine performance.

Routine Engine Tune-Up Service for Your Jeep Grand Cherokee

The Firestone Complete Auto Care location in your community offers several Jeep Grand Cherokee engine tune-up services. The standard Firestone Tune-Up is one service option. The standard Firestone Tune-Up includes new spark plugs (and installation!), a thorough inspection of engine components, and a lifetime parts warranty*. Another service option pays special attention to the filters in your Grand Cherokee. 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 Grand Cherokee'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 Grand Cherokee's mileage and maintenance history can uniquely impact its tune-up 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 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee Engine Tune-Ups

  • Will it hurt my Jeep Grand Cherokee to drive with old spark plugs? 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 Jeep Grand Cherokee? 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 some driving habits better for my Jeep Grand Cherokee engine than others? 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.
  • I need a Jeep Grand Cherokee tune-up. Where can I get on? At your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care! Whether you need Jeep Grand Cherokee service, maintenance, or repairs, our technicians can get the job done.
  • How frequently do I need to get my Jeep Grand Cherokee fuel injectors 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.
