Keeping Your Car in Tune

By: Kimberly Meyer

Nobody looses from keeping a car taken cared of well. If you do
follow maintenance schedules and do repairs well, you would not
only be helping your pocket but you also would be helping the
environment be greener than ever. You see, if a vehicle is
well-maintained, chances are that it would be running better,
safer, and more efficiently.

The engine is a very important and essential part of the whole
car's system. By keeping it tuned rightly, your vehicle would be
running much smoother. In fact, if your engine has a misfiring
spark plug, your vehicle's fuel efficiency actually is cut down
to around thirty percent. Thirty percent is a great amount. If
there is a need to replace filters and fluids, do not hesitate
to do so. In fact, it would be best to follow service schedules.

Improperly inflated tires may not be a big deal for most people,
however, the sad truth behind this is that improperly inflated
tires bring down your vehicle's fuel efficiency. This could also
be the start of expensive damages on your vehicle. For sure,
these are some matters that you would like to avoid as much as
possible. Keep your tires properly maintained and properly
inflated so as not to waste those precious drops of fuel.

It is also important to keep your vehicle's air conditioner
working properly. If it needs any kind of servicing, have the
work done by only a technician who is certified to do such types
of duties. Make sure that you choose a qualified technician.

On the other hand, you can also do things yourself like dispose
of used motor oil, change anti-freeze and coolant, check tires,
and replace old batteries properly. However, do not simply dump
these anywhere. There are recycling sites that handle such
wastes so much so that it does not harm other people and harm
the environment as well.
