You mentioned the use of the "Italian tune-up". Here's how my good friend Gert, who immigrated from Denmark in the mid-'60's (we met back then when we worked at the same small independent "foreign car" repair shop on Long Island) described how a tune-up ended. Gert was VOLVO trained in Denmark. Take the car on an 8 mile stretch of highway--in third gear foot to the floor--loop around and head back to the shop again in third foot to the floor. He said the car would typically go nearly 10 mph faster at the end of the return trip. :-) Dave
