Tune-Ups to Help Your Oldsmobile Silhouette Run Better

Is your engine overdue for a tune-up? If you're the type of driver who waits for something to go wrong with your vehicle, it might be time to change your ways, especially if you drive a 1999 Oldsmobile Silhouette. Routine engine tune-ups can bring power back to your Silhouette. Tune-ups give your engine a boost in efficiency, which can lead to lower emission levels and better fuel economy. When you get routine engine tune-ups based on Oldsmobile's recommendations, you can rest assured you’re investing in your Silhouette’s long-term engine performance.

Oldsmobile Silhouette Engine Tune-Up Services

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care offers a range of engine tune-up services for your 1999 Oldsmobile Silhouette. 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*. Another service option pays special attention to the filters in your Silhouette. 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 Silhouette. The result? Restored fuel system performance. Consider this when choosing a tune-up service for your Silhouette: your vehicle’s maintenance record and mileage can determine which service is best. This means that a tune-up service that’s a great fit for another car may not be optimal for yours. Chat with a Firestone technician before you jump into a specific service to ensure your engine tune-up money is well-spent.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for your next 1999 Silhouette engine tune-up. Consult your vehicle’s recommended service schedule from Oldsmobile, or make a service appointment if you notice any of these symptoms from your engine: decreased gas mileage, "rough" idling or stalling when stopped, knocking noises in the engine, or a lit up check engine light on your dashboard.
