Enhance Mitsubishi Mirage Performance with a Tune-Up

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, especially if you want your 1986 Mitsubishi Mirage’s engine to last for a long time. Periodic tune-ups can bring more power back to your Mirage’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 take your car for regular engine tune-ups as recommended by Mitsubishi, you invest in your Mirage's long-term health and engine performance.

Routine Engine Tune-Up Service for Your Mitsubishi Mirage

Your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care location has several options to choose from when it comes to Mitsubishi Mirage engine tune-up services. The standard Firestone Tune-Up is one service option. It includes a complete visual inspection of engine components, installation of new spark plugs, and a lifetime warranty on parts*. Another service option pays special attention to the filters in your Mirage. 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 Mirage. This goes a long way in boosting your fuel system’s overall performance. Consider this when choosing a tune-up service for your Mirage: 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. Talk to a technician about your driving style, mileage, and service history to learn more about your vehicle's specific needs.

Where to Get a Tune-Up for Your Mitsubishi Mirage

Use Mitsubishi’s recommended maintenance schedule as a reference point, or schedule an appointment ASAP if you notice any of these signs: 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 1986 Mitsubishi Mirage Engine Tune-Ups

  • What happens if my Mitsubishi Mirage spark plugs fail? Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so. Without the spark of electricity created by spark plugs, your engine doesn’t have the combustion it needs to start — which could leave you stranded on the road. Always replace your spark plugs on time based on Mitsubishi’s recommendations.
  • What does a puddle underneath my Mitsubishi Mirage mean? Puddles could indicate that your vehicle is leaking coolant, oil, or brake fluid. Ignoring these leaks can lead to permanent engine damage, so address these symptoms ASAP with a tune-up service.
  • Are hard starts and stops bad for my Mitsubishi Mirage 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 Mitsubishi Mirage tune-up done? At your closest Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our experienced technicians offer Mitsubishi Mirage service, maintenance, and repairs.
  • How frequently do the fuel injectors in my Mitsubishi Mirage need to be cleaned? The cleaning schedule for vehicle fuel injectors varies depending on your driving conditions and the type of fuel you use. Some manufacturers suggest cleaning your fuel system as part of routine maintenance, while others will recommend it on an as-needed basis if you’re experiencing poor performance. Reference your Mitsubishi owner’s manual for exact guidelines.
