Default tuneing question....

when you change your head gasket, cambelt, and water pump, do you need to then go and get your car tuned up again.... because obviously the timing has been changed and what not.

Timing should be the exact same matey, unless its running advanced cam timing if its been played with before but then again all depends what car you have

Assuming the timing was correct before and is after the HG change will be perfectly ok, where dizzies etc are moved and not marked a timing light would come in handy to reset ignition.
