Keep Your Car Running
Longer
When you think of a new car, you think of that clean car
smell, the shiny untouched paint, and those looks from other drivers. But what
goes into keeping your car fresh? This advice will be sure to help.
When it comes to gas
in this economy, most people just see a gas station with a cheap price and
think “BINGO!” Well…not exactly. Look at the surroundings.
- A reputable gas station could save your tank’s life. Making sure the gas is clean and from a good source is a must.
- If there is a tanker at the gas station you chose to drive up on, don’t fill up. The tanker is stirring up all the built up sediment from who knows how long ago and that could clog up your tank and cause problems in the future.
- Go ahead and ask a gas station if they change their filters regularly. If the answer is yes, then go ahead, fill up with no worries. If no…then I think you know what to do. (DRIVE AWAY).
Keep your keychain
light
If you have 10 cute decorations hanging from your keychain,
your car ignition switch is at risk. Having all that weight hanging from your
ignition from day after day could lead to paying for a new ignition switch and
a whole new key to start your car. It happened to me…take it from experience,
you don’t want a key to unlock your doors and another key to start your car.
Rotate your tires and
maintain tire inflation
Underinflated tires can cause damage to your wheels. If
enough pressure is put onto the underinflated tires, they could completely give
out and leave you with more than one flat tire. Rotating your tires, can help
keep the tire wear stay evenly distributed.
