Car Forum / Acura Cars / August 20063.2 TL Tune Up Kit
I have a 2000 3.2 TL with 163K miles on it. I'm needing another tune up. Gas milege used to be about 400 miles to a tank (even in the summer) and I'm getting about 340 now. Can anyone suggest a good place to buy a genuine Acura tune up kit online? I want to make sure I get ALL the necessary parts. Would someone please let me know ALL the parts needed as well so I don't forget anything, unless there is a "complete" kit available. Your help is truly appreciated.

I think I asked nicely enough and you gotta give some smart a.s answer like that? In fact, that's the 1st time I've ever seen a response like that here. You know, I play guitar and I'm kind of an expert at musical gear if you will. I visit the guitar groups daily and people ask questions all day and I help them. Makes me feel good. Why waste your time with a reply like that? Jeff >>>>I have a 2000 3.2 TL with 163K miles on it.

Helllloooooooo out there?" that prompted the comment, not the original question. So, tell us, *have* you RTFM? The answer's in there. Sorry to offend the delicate sensibilities of a "guitar player," I know you guys are a lot more sensitive than drummers...

I got the car back, obviously. > Sorry to offend the delicate sensibilities of a "guitar player," I > know you guys are a lot more sensitive than drummers... No man... You don't offend me, you're just being a jerk is all. SignatureJeff http://tinyurl.com/8sz9r >No man... You don't offend me, you're just being a jerk is all. Oh, the irony.

There is no such thing as a standard "tune-up" kit. You buy the parts you need be they spark plugs, filters, etc. John >>> I have a 2000 3.2 TL with 163K miles on it. I'm needing another tune >>> up.

He's probably due for new plug wires,dist.cap and rotor,too. What I don't understand is a guy who's capable of doing his own "tune-up" work but doesn't know that "complete tune-up kits" are not made for any car. That seems contradictory.

I having a friend that's going to do it for me (has done other work for me in the past), I was just trying to buy the stuff for him and make sure I had everything covered.... I've been a subscriber to this group for a couple years, but I rarely post, as I'm not an expert, but I've owned mostly Acuras and Hondas the last 20 years and just come here to read and learn. However, over the past 2 years I saved links you you all suggested to other posters to get said parts but I lost them all when my computer got a bad virus. I was in a hurry when I posted the original question. My apologies to anyone that was offended. Jeff I'm merely looking for a link to get these parts from a reputable online service >>>>> I have a 2000 3.2 TL with 163K miles on it. I'm needing another >>>>> tune up.

You also may want to get your wheel bearings regreased and CV boots and joints checked. SignatureJim Yanik jyanik at kua.net >>>>>> I have a 2000 3.2 TL with 163K miles on it.

Thanks a lot Jim... Much appreciated. Jeff >He's probably due for new plug wires,dist.cap and rotor,too. NJK makes an oxygen sensor for the TL. Is that something that should be changed regularly? I haven't seen it in the book. Signature"What, me worry?" - Alfred E. Neuman >>He's probably due for new plug wires,dist.cap and rotor,too. > > NJK makes an oxygen sensor for the TL.

Some were 60K mi.,some were 100K mi. SignatureJim Yanik jyanik at kua.net
