Does a tune up come with an oil change? About how much should one expect to pay if all the spark plugs and wires need to be replaced??Does a tune up come with an oil change? About how much should one expect to pay if all the spark plugs and..?
Of course not.
Pricing depends on what kind of car or truck.

Ok i have a oldsmobile 1980 delta88 and its a v8 5.7 but it runs real slow just changed spark plugs?
and the spark plug wires does any one know how to make it run like a 5.7Ok i have a oldsmobile 1980 delta88 and its a v8 5.7 but it runs real slow just changed spark plugs?
its time to take this car to the junk yard and LEAVE IT!

Check the timing and how much timing error there is due to the slack in the timing chain if it is worn out. Put headers and dual exhausts on it for extra horsepower. Put a K%26amp;N air filter in it for a little more power.Ok i have a oldsmobile 1980 delta88 and its a v8 5.7 but it runs real slow just changed spark plugs?
Check everything in your emissions aka Air filter, Mass air sensor things like that. Also make sure your timing is correct, if its a little bit off it causes the %26quot;car lagging%26quot;. You might also want to check your fuel filter because if you changed your spark plugs its a %26quot;general%26quot; rule to change your fuel filter. Also, you can check out some of your sensors. Oh yes and one more! aha sorry, it could also be your Idle Air Control Valve! That's what creates your idle, and if that's bad, you'll have bad pick-up (example: takes more than 20 seconds to get to 35 miles per hour)Ok i have a oldsmobile 1980 delta88 and its a v8 5.7 but it runs real slow just changed spark plugs?
Did you replace all components of the system? A bad cap/rotor/points (if your car has all of those) will dramatically affect performance.
Consider having the exhaust system checked. If you don't have proper back-pressure then you may experience a loss of performance.
Also, run fuel with the proper octane rating. If you're running regular unleaded, try stepping up to mid-grade. You may even see an improvement in fuel economy by doing this...which will help to off-set the added expense.Ok i have a oldsmobile 1980 delta88 and its a v8 5.7 but it runs real slow just changed spark plugs?

Changing out the air filter, fuel filter, and checking the timing might bring up your horsepower a little. Your engine might have many miles on it and an overhaul might be right for you. The rings and your cylinder compression might have something to do with it too.compost pile need advice sausage in a pasta recipe

My husband was changing the spark plugs on my car, when he tried to crank it, a small fire started.?
I drive a 1999 Ford Taurus. %26quot;I%26quot; know to only take off one spark plug/wire at a time but he took them all off and of course is trying to figure out how they go. But when he was doing this, a small fire started. We poured water on it, but I'm concerned about damage and what started it. HELP?My husband was changing the spark plugs on my car, when he tried to crank it, a small fire started.?
the engine will back flow the fire if you don't have the spark plugs in the right order what causes this is it ignites in the cylinder when the intake valve is open and ignites the fuel as its coming in if no hoses were burnt or anything on the outside of the motor you should be fine just get the correct firing order and put them on right and you should be fine
PS it can burn as it kicks the fuel backMy husband was changing the spark plugs on my car, when he tried to crank it, a small fire started.?
Should not have been anything under the hood to catch fire. Tow it to a professional to diagnose-it sounds like he knocked something loose. As far as how bad the damage is-kinda hard to see from here....................................My husband was changing the spark plugs on my car, when he tried to crank it, a small fire started.?
Should not of dumped water in there like that. I would take it to the shop but if little bit of water went in the motor .You can get a manual or maybe even the owners manual you have and it should tell you the order the plugs go.

How to change spark plugs!!! Trouble shooting?
I was chaining the spark plugs on my grand prix and were the spark plug meet the wire there a metel tube around the wire well when i replaced the spark plug and pressed it down the metel tube seemed loose is that normal are do i need to do something to that!! And on the other spark plug i pulled it to hard and now the part that claps on to the spark plug is showing some and i cant get the plastic sleeve to cover it!!! is that a problem and if so what can happen!! Thanks BrandonHow to change spark plugs!!! Trouble shooting?
Along with new wires you should get a distributor cap and rotor. About the wiggly cylinder I don't know what it could be but i dont think it will be a problem.How to change spark plugs!!! Trouble shooting?
You need to buy some new spark plug wires. You should get new wires every time you change the plugs.How to change spark plugs!!! Trouble shooting?
use a pair of plyers to crimp that part tighter so it grabs the head of the plug good and tight,, be real careful not to put a hole in the rubber with the plyers, if your scared u will ruin the rubber use an old rag around the wire and grip it that way,, dont put to much force on it or u wont get the plug in it no more,, take a cpl times to get it right,,and when u replace the plugs its a good idea to use antiseize on the threads and conductive grease on the park plug boot to aid in the next removal,,ArtHow to change spark plugs!!! Trouble shooting?
No thats not a problem . Your wires may be bad but even when there new they can be hard to get on. If you just push hard on the wires you will feel it click and it wont be loose at all.
If you can see the clamps in the wires sticking out it wont be a problem. If you damaged the wire to bad it will just not work and it wont fire off that plug but it will be fine. Wires will last a long time so it will probably be fine.

How to change the spark plugs on a 2001 pontiac grand am?
dont see the spark plugs or wires on the engineHow to change the spark plugs on a 2001 pontiac grand am?
You need 4 spark plugs. They are located under the cover on the top of the engine. Remove the 4 bolts (13mm) on the cover and carefully unplug the harness on the end of the cover to your right. Pull the cover straight up (you will have some resistance). Before removing the plugs blow out any dirt and debris so that it can not fall into the engine with the plugs removed. Then remove the plugs, I remove and replace one plug at a time. After all 4 plugs have been replaced carefully put the cover back in place making sure the plug wires are in position. Install the 4 bolts and plug in the wire harness.
NOTE: You may want to replace the spark plug wires while you have it unassembled. About $20.00 at a parts store.
Also, do not over tighten the plugs or the bolts on the cover.

Have fun and think pure thoughts while doing this.

if its a v6 your going to have to get at those back 3 by going under the car, if that doesent work ied take it to the dealer because if your asking this you dont know how to remove the intake manifold or how to rerout vacume lines and sutch but try going under the car to get the other 3. good luck dont give up

How can you tell if the ignition control module is bad?
I done a simle tune up. i got it all changed spark plugs, wires, rotor button, distributor cap, now it cranks but wont start. getting good fire from coil just none from distributor to plugs?How can you tell if the ignition control module is bad?
Double check to see if your rotor and cap are both seated correctly.How can you tell if the ignition control module is bad?
take out all the guess work out of it take it to like a auto-zone they test it for freeHow can you tell if the ignition control module is bad?
If you had a bad ignition control module you wouldn't get any spark from the coil at all. Your problem lies in the wires. Either the coil wire is not inserted all the way at both ends which is why there is no power at the distributor or some of the wires are switched. I am thinking the wires are switched or not inserted all the way and are not making a good contact. Sure to make sure they are all making contacts.need girl names with meanings accountant can do from home
