92 Accord EX Tune up help.............................................. ..........
I have a 92 accord EX that I just bought off a guy for $450. Its the
4 speed auto. I am getting 18-19 mpg and I am runnin it like my grandma would. I also live out in Cow Town. It's got 155,000 miles on it and I think it needs a tune up, bad. Do any of you guys have a list of stuff that is included in a "tune up"? Any help would be great. He didn't have any matience records. TIA, -Adam |

Does it smoke? If not, I would (in this order)
check air pressure in tires change oil and oil filter change air filter change spark plugs change fuel filter If low mileage persists, you have to look into the more expensive items. Also, you are way past due for a new timing belt.

To Ed's list, I'd add:
Change distributor cap & distributor rotor Change ignition wires Change PCV valve Altogether, these are the easy-to-do, but also fortunately low-cost, tune-up items. If things go wrong after all these are done, then the car will be easier to troubleshoot. "Ed" <do.not@spam.me> wrote > Does it smoke?
