Tune Into Your Oldsmobile 98

Is it time for an engine tune-up? If you tend to ignore your car until something goes wrong, it could be time for a new way of doing things, especially if you want your 1986 Oldsmobile 98’s engine to last for a long time. Periodic tune-ups can bring more power back to your 98’s engine. Tune-ups give your engine a boost in efficiency, so you can enjoy improved fuel economy and lower emissions. When you get routine engine tune-ups based on Oldsmobile's recommendations, you’re taking vital steps toward keeping your 98’s engine running smoother, longer.

Oldsmobile 98 Engine Tune-Up Services

Your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care location has several options to choose from when it comes to Oldsmobile 98 engine tune-up services. One option is the standard Firestone Tune-Up. 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 98. 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 98'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 98'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. 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 Oldsmobile 98 Tune-Up

Common Engine Tune-Up Q&A For 1986 Oldsmobile 98s

  • What happens if my Oldsmobile 98 spark plugs fail? When it’s time to replace the spark plugs, don’t delay. These small (but vital!) parts provide the electric spark that your car needs in order to start, and old spark plugs can prevent your car from starting at all. Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so.
  • What should I do if I see leaks under my 98? 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 Oldsmobile 98 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 Oldsmobile 98 tune-up done? At your closest Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our experienced technicians offer Oldsmobile 98 service, maintenance, and repairs.
