He used to drop into my chambers once in a while to smoke, and was first-rate company. When I gave a dinner there was generally a cover laid for him. I liked the man for his own sake, and even had he promised to turn out a celebrity it would have had no weight with me.
The owners manual on every vehicle should state how often the manufacturer recommends that you tune up cars, but as a general rule it is every two years or 30,000 miles, whichever comes first. Driving under extreme temperature and weather conditions will make parts wear out faster, however.
How often should I get a tune-up? The answer to this question really depends on what kind of car you drive and how old it is. For vehicles manufactured earlier than 2008, the rule of thumb is that you need a tune-up every 30,000 miles. For newer vehicles, it could range anywhere from every 50,000 to every 100,000 miles.
