This survey of ignition systems and starting performance was conducted in 400 communities in the United States and Canada. Results showed poor maintenance by the average motorist. Over a third of all vehicles tested had ignition systems with low output and 60% needed spark plug service or replacement. Approximately one-fourth of all motorists reported hard starting. Only 60% intended to have a tune-up; only 40% actually had it. Tune-ups usually consisted only of spark plug servicing.This survey indicates rather conclusively the great need to make motorists aware of the value of periodic maintenance.
