Enhance Mazda MX-6 Performance with a Tune-Up

Is your engine overdue for a tune-up? If you tend to ignore your car until something goes wrong, now is the time to work on that habit, especially if you want your 1996 Mazda MX-6’s engine to last for a long time. Periodic tune-ups can bring more power back to your MX-6’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 get routine engine tune-ups based on Mazda's recommendations, you can rest assured you’re investing in your MX-6’s long-term engine performance.

Routine Engine Tune-Up Service for Your Mazda MX-6

Your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care location has several options to choose from when it comes to Mazda MX-6 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*. A second service option replaces the air and fuel filter in your MX-6. 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 MX-6. This can improve your fuel system’s performance (and therefore, your engine’s performance). Consider this when choosing a tune-up service for your MX-6: your vehicle’s maintenance record and mileage can determine which service is best. 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.

Where to Get a Tune-Up for Your Mazda MX-6

Follow Mazda's recommended maintenance schedule or book an appointment as soon as you notice one of the following: stalling or shaky idling when you’re stopped, diminished fuel economy, knocking noises in the engine, or a lit up check engine light on your dashboard.

Questions About 1996 Mazda MX-6 Engine Tune-Ups

  • When should Mazda MX-6 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 Mazda MX-6? Don't ignore puddles of fluid under your Mazda MX-6. It could signal a coolant leak, brake fluid leak, or an oil leak. Let any one of these leaks linger and it could cause engine damage.
  • Are some driving habits better for my Mazda MX-6 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.
  • Where can I get a Mazda MX-6 tune-up? At your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care! Whether you need Mazda MX-6 service, maintenance, or repairs, our technicians can get the job done.

Reference your Mazda owner’s manual for exact guidelines.
