Question about tune up!

How much will it cost to get a tune up for a 1991 Camaro RS?

And, how much would it cost for a Fuel Filter and plugs to go along with it.

Service as well.

Well for a FULL Tune-up, your gonna need the following:

Spark Plugs
Ignition Wires
Oil Filter
Air Filter
Fuel Filter
Coil
Cap
Rotor
PCV Valve
Oil fluid change
Transmission fluid change
Rear-end fluid change

U can also add if u want:

Thermostat
O2 Sensor

Id say everything is gonna running u around $200 just for the products, for service id say at least another $100, IF there gonna do everything. Though i recommend if u know your way around an engine, and are handy with some tools, to go ahead and do most of that stuff yourself. Trust me, u save money, and learn things too.

Fuel filter should be no more than $10, and plugs no more than $4 each.

Id just got done doing a FULL tune-up on mine, and i still have the transmission and rear-end fluid to do, but everything else is done. It cost me more than $200, but i did get MSD cap, rotor, and coil, and installed everything myself.

But that should be most of it, if i forgot anything, someone else here should fill u in.

Good luck!

do it yourself. nothing like the feeling that you know everything was done right.
