Is it tune-up time? If you're the type of driver who waits for something to go wrong with your vehicle, now is the time to work on that habit, particularly if you want to keep your 1990 Mazda Miata in tip-top shape. Routine engine tune-ups can bring power back to your Miata. Tune-ups give your engine a boost in efficiency, which can mean better fuel economy (a win for you) and lower emissions (a win for the environment). When you follow the guidelines specified by Mazda for your vehicle’s tune-up schedule, you’re taking vital steps toward keeping your Miata’s engine running smoother, longer.
Your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care location has several options to choose from when it comes to Mazda Miata engine tune-up services. The first is the standard Firestone Tune-Up. It includes a complete visual inspection of engine components, installation of new spark plugs, and a lifetime warranty on parts*. A second service option replaces the air and fuel filter in your Miata. Our third service is a thorough cleaning of the fuel system. During this type of tune-up, we use a three-step process to get rid of harmful varnish, dirt, and carbon deposit buildup in your Miata’s fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate. This goes a long way in boosting your fuel system’s overall performance. Here’s something to remember when choosing services: the mileage and service history of your Miata can determine what kind of service it needs. If you’re not sure what services are the best fit for your car, let us help! Ask one of our technicians what your vehicle needs, based on your driving habits and your car’s current condition.
Schedule your next 1990 Miata engine tune-up service at Firestone Complete Auto Care. Consult your vehicle’s recommended service schedule from Mazda, or make a service appointment if you notice any of these symptoms from your engine: decreased gas mileage, "rough" idling or stalling when stopped, engine knocking, or an illuminated check engine light.
What should I do if I see leaks under my Miata? Don't ignore puddles of fluid under your Mazda Miata. 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.
