Damn, I'm getting my 97 civic hatchback in a half and hour and I'm paying 353.89 for a freaking tune up and an oil change and a new antenna... damn that's a lot of fawking money. Luckily I get paid next friday.

Don't you guys think that's a little high for a tune up and what usually consists of one?

change oil and check fluids , hahahahaha wait wait, they check your tire pressure.

THey may top out your fluids too, oooooooooooooooooo

Major tune up?

If so, plugs, valve adjustment, all fluilds, brakes, filters...I think that's about it. You can do most of it yourself.

yeah it was basically a major tune up, those were the things done to it except the brakes.

could have just paid to do a valve adjustment for $60 and do the rest urself. h:

Or buy some feeler gauges and a box end 10mm wrench and do it yourself.

Im in the wrong business. I'd of done all that for $200! It's only $50 dollars of parts, and with a lift/airtools 1.5 hours of labor.

ya im very new, but at the same time very cheap so i have done every thing my self.... valve adjustments are very eazy. timing belt/ water pump on the other hand took forever
