Default Kinda new here and I have some questions...

Hey guys, to start off I drive a 1990 Integra LS that has a few problems.
Right now it needs a tune up and I have no idea how much that is going to cost. So my first question is how much will the tune up cost at a shop?

Also, the brake lights will stay on after turn off the car and I don't know why... So if you guys know will you please tell me?
Well that's about it. If you guys have insight for me, please tell me.
Thanks!

not sure about the brake light problem to be honest, but for the tune up, i say do it yourself and save yourself the money on the labor and spend it on the tools if needed. i see your only 16, but its not very hard and you get to know your way around your car better.

a basic tune up usually consists of spark plugs/wires, cap and rotor, air filter, maybe the fuel filter. and welcome to the forum!

Thanks man! I would do it myself, but my dad thinks I will ruin the car. So that's the only reason why I have to do it at a shop.

i understand, i never got that just bc my dad was the one encouraging me to do the work lol. but i have a few friends that got that. idk exactly how much it will cost bc each shop will charge a different amount. best bet is to call around and see what the local rate is.

Bad stop switch, shorted out, or pedal is sagging and staying on it... call your local auto parts store, ask for prices on cap, rotor, plugs and wires, fuel filter and there are so many guides out there to do it properly. It is possibly the easiest thing to do to the car besides change its oil.. oh yeah, change its oil!
