does this replace a routine tune-up at the mechanics? or part of one?

Part of one. But be careful, after I did the tune-up, just a week later I had issues with my engine running rough and ended up having to take it into my regular mechanic and do a "real tune-up".

It is a generic kit, and there may be some adjustments necessary, depending on what you are replacing. But, it is better than most.

Yes, it did help. We have a 1981 Volvo, ran better after. (Eventually we had to do a major tune upto fix the 'problem' of 'rough start'. Needed new plugs etc))

Yes to both. But keep the manual crank in a handy spot...you'll be using it often.

the install is straight forward and simple.what are you installing it on? however i think that i have not got it tuned right yet as the mph seems to be off the faster i go

would work for tune ups but would go with the plug in model. battery doesn't last that long.

Just do the reassembly as instructed by your maintenance manual and the additional guidance sheet provided. If you don't have a maintenance manual, I recommend you get a Haynes or a Chilton Manual.

Definitely change the serpentine belt, have your mechanic check the cam seals and a new thermastat is not a bad idea!

I bought one of these, but had a mechanic install it. He did not mention needing anything else.

I am not a small engine mechanic. It has been a while, but from what I remember it was a simple process. It comes as a kit. You take I believe for screws out. Take broken recoil off. And the new one is easily replaced. I was surprised. That is what I remember. Also, the Recumseh has worked very well since it was replaced. 2 years I think.

No. But I replaced belt and 2 weeks later the clutch froze up. So I've now done both. YouTube it

No it does not fixes the problem, unles your car has Diagnostic Trouble Codes specific on this, this can be a internal transmission problem.

It is best to get a tune but the ecu will adjust the air fuel mixture to account for this intake being installed . Most people agree that you will run lean without a tune through .

Yes. If you have spent time cleaning you're gear box and still are encountering the issue, purchasing this will resolve the issue.

It was installed for me by my mechanic. I don't know what he did but it is working well. sorry I am of no help.

I think that since it operates on 10m and 12m, without a tuner, it should "tune up" with a tuner...........may ask the dealer for sure

Just install the factory tune before you bring it in and there is no cause for concern. Depending on the dealer you could just leave the tune in. Some will have a hissy fit, some won't. All depends on your local dealer.
