Car & Truck Care Quick Tips |
Consult your vehicle owner's manual for individual service schedules as manufacturer
maintenance requirements will vary. |
|
According to recent studies, 5 percent of all motor vehicle fatalities are clearly
caused by automobile maintenance neglect. |
Always consult your owners manual, but have the oil filter and oil changed
regularly, every 3,000 to 4,000 miles. |
Check tire inflation. Under-inflated tires can result in a loss of fuel efficiency. Tire air pressure should be checked once a month. |
Check battery cables and posts for corrosion and clean them as needed. Check the
battery fluid in non maintenace free batteries. |
Inspect engine belts regularly. Look for cracks and missing sections or segments. |
The air filter should be checked approximately every other oil change for clogging
or damage. |
Have all the fluids regulary checked, including brake, power steering, transmission/transaxle, windshield washer solvent and antifreeze. |
Tune the engine for peak performance, a fouled spark plug or plugged/restricted fuel injector can
reduce fuel efficiency as much as 30 percent. |
Lubricate the chassis often to prevent wear of the moving parts |
