I think my speedometer is right. I checked it with a app on my phone. I can go 55 at just rarely under 2000 rpm.
What all is included in a tune up? Plugs, wires?
It depends on the engine and how it’s setup.
Plugs and wires are part of it. Don’t cheap out on them. Motorcraft or Autolite for the plugs. Use only what is recommended getting fancy plugs often just make your wallet lighter and not much else. Don’t forget to check the gap. They can be off from being dropped or rough handling during shipping.
The same goes with wires, don’t go cheap.
Does your truck have a distributor? If so, it’s time for a rotor and cap. The contacts oxidize and corrode over time.
Your timing might need to be checked.
Change the PCV valve.
Change the fuel filter.
Take a look at the air filter. If you can’t see light through the element, time to change it. If the engine can’t breathe well, it will effect your fuel mileage.
I already mentioned fuel system cleaner and cleaning the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor. Cleaning the throttle body or carburetor too.
I think that about covers the main things. Someone will chime in if I forgot something.
