Simple tune ups are done by replacing the air filter, changing the oil, and setting the timing correctly. You can get this done at any mechanic for a standard rate. They usually offer a deal.

For a tune-up you usually replace the following parts: air filter, fuel filter, spark plugs, distributor, distributor cap, and spark plug wires. I would also check the brakes and replace them as needed. All that is usually needed for that are the brake pads and rotors or you can have your existing rotors turned.

To tune up your PT Cruiser you want to be with new oil and a fresh filter. Next change all spark plugs, wires, cap and rotor. This will not only improve performance but gas mileage as well. Be sure to replace all air and fuel filters.

Install a cold air intake which will increase 10-15 HPdepending on your model and engine. However if you are fast then there are nitous systems, tubochargers and superchargers.
