Well when is the last time it had a tune-up? cleaned the MAF? did the brake trick?

DarrenOrtego22 07-16-2015 09:33 AM

I just bought it and the previous owner had no clue on rotary maintenance. brake trick???? and I can do all of that today but a tune up is about 300 which im totally OK with if it fixes my problem just hate to throw money at a car blind.

Depends what's included in the tune-up. Most of the "tune up", like changing spark plugs, you can do yourself.
