6 Summer Trip Tips
With vacations coming and going, we'd like to pass on a few
tips to help your vacation running smoothly.
1) Check your tires
Make sure they are in need of replacing, and if they are get them replaced
before your trip. Not only are worn tires hard on your car and gas mileage, but
they can be dangerous too.
2) Check your tire's air pressure
Along with point one, low air pressure costs you fuel efficiency and puts more wear on your tires.3) Rotate your tires
An often overlooked maintenance job, in an ideal world your tires wear down evenly. In reality each tire wears down in different spots and at different rates than the others do. By rotating them you can distribute the wear more evenly and sometimes lengthen the life of your tires.4) Change your oil
Clean oil lengthens your engine life, dirty oil shortens it.5) Check your fluids
You don't want your engine overheating nor do you want your brakes to fail while you're out-and-about. Simple fluid checks before your trip can save you time, money, and aggravation.6) Check your tune-up schedule
If it's time for your tuneup, get it done before your trip if possible. While on vacation you don't want to work any harder than you need to, why should your engine?
