Will it hurt my Plymouth Colt to drive with old spark plugs?

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 does a puddle underneath my Plymouth Colt mean?

Don't ignore puddles of fluid under your Plymouth Colt. 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 Plymouth Colt 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.

How frequently do I need to get my Plymouth Colt fuel injectors cleaned?

Tune-Ups to Help Your Plymouth Colt Run Better

Is your engine overdue for a tune-up? If you usually wait until your car has an issue to take it in for service, it might be time to change your ways, especially if you drive a 1985 Plymouth Colt. Regular engine tune-ups can optimize your Colt’s power on the road. They're designed to help your engine start easier and run more efficiently, which can lead to lower emission levels and better fuel economy. When you follow the guidelines specified by Plymouth for your vehicle’s tune-up schedule, you invest in your Colt's long-term health and engine performance.

Routine Engine Tune-Up Service for Your Plymouth Colt

Your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care location has several options to choose from when it comes to Plymouth Colt engine tune-up services. One option is the standard Firestone Tune-Up. The standard Firestone Tune-Up includes new spark plugs (and installation!), a thorough inspection of engine components, and a lifetime parts warranty*. A second service option replaces the air and fuel filter in your Colt. 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 Colt. The result? Restored fuel system performance. Consider this when choosing a tune-up service for your Colt: 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. Chat with a Firestone technician before you jump into a specific service to ensure your engine tune-up money is well-spent.

Where to Get a Plymouth Colt Tune-Up

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for your next 1985 Colt engine tune-up. Consult your vehicle’s recommended service schedule from Plymouth, or make a service appointment if you notice any of these symptoms from your engine: shaking while the engine is idling, poor fuel economy, engine knocking, or an illuminated check engine light.
