Motor tuneups end starting failures
Motor tuneups prevent starting failures in cold weather says George Barres of Barres Garage. Ignition problems from worn sparkplugs and breaker points cause most issues, so a timing tuneup every 10 000 miles is advised alongside winter anti freeze and radiator checks. The shop offers 24 hour service and two heavy duty wreckers to assist stranded motorists.
