PROACTIVELY PROTECT YOUR ENGINE

As you probably already know, the engine in your car requires scheduled maintenance on a number of components including the oil, air filter, and even regular gas fill-ups. Here are a few ways you can prevent having to take your car in for an engine repair servicing.

Regularly Conduct and Receive Oil Changes – This is absolutely one of the most important things you can do for your engine. The oil keeps your engine parts well lubricated so that they won’t overheat. Your car engine can’t function without oil and if you go too long between oil changes it could cause lasting harm. Suggestions for oil change timelines will vary, but a widely accepted standard for modern cars is to change the oil every 5,000 miles. Some engines can go a little longer while some older engines may require an oil change sooner than that. Make sure to look in your car’s manual for your specific vehicle’s oil change interval to avoid costly engine repair.

Ensure Proper Functioning of the Cooling System – Making sure you have the proper amount of coolant (radiator fluid) circulating throughout the engine is the best way to protect your engine from overheating. The cooling system is made up of a radiator, thermostat, water pump, and coolant. Coolant circulates through your engine when your car’s thermostat reads that it’s getting too hot. The water pump pulls coolant from the radiator and delivers it to the engine block and then sends it back out to the radiator to be cooled back down.

Check your coolant level frequently – it’s a clear tank under the hood with a green or orange-colored liquid in it. Coolant should stay above the minimum mark and below the maximum mark. Brothers Auto & Glass provides thorough cooling system checks. We promise you that the cost to find and replace a problem ahead of time will easily offset the harm done to your engine if it ever overheats. We will do what we can to keep you from having to pay for a full engine repair.

Keep the Engine Breathing – Other than fuel, the air is one of the most essential ingredients in keeping your engine healthy. Cars need a constant flow of air just like humans do. Air should be coming into the engine persistently, without constraint or debris to hinder it. Your car’s air filters are a line of defense against debris that can get clogged with dirt and need to be switched out. If the filter gets clogged with dirt, then it’s not doing its job efficiently. This can cause it to starve your engine for oxygen, let in too much junk, or a combination of the two. Brothers Auto & Glass’s professional and forward-thinking mechanics will help you with preventative care by taking a look at the air filter when we change your oil. If necessary, we can replace it to keep that engine running smoothly.

Check for Leaks – Be sure to check under the car to see if anything is leaking onto the pavement or your garage floor below from time to time. You don’t have to be a rockstar mechanic to spot a leak. Oil and antifreeze are the two main fluids you want to make sure aren’t leaking out of your engine. Rubber engine hoses that are old and cracked can leak antifreeze and any parts that join together with a rubber seal and silicon can eventually begin leaking. Brothers can assure you that treating a minor leak before it turns into a major problem requiring engine repair will save you a headache later on.

Fill Up Your Gas Tank Before It Gets Too Low – Try not to run your car all the way down to empty all the time. Doing this means you’re pulling from the bottom of the barrel and all the sediment that’s accumulated there can cause engine damage. After years of driving and many fill-ups, a fair amount of junk can accumulate at the bottom of your fuel tank. If you always fill up only when you’re running on empty, that junk can get into the engine and cause internal damage. Don’t make your engine work harder or put yourself in a position where you need costly engine repair!

KEEP YOUR ENGINE RUNNING LIKE NEW

The majority of us don’t spend a lot of time considering how to extend the life of our engines. We hop into the car, turn the key and get on the road. When we don’t prioritize the health of a car’s engine, it tells us! The engine starts to make sounds we’re not familiar with, or the car feels a little different when we drive.

Engines need to be cared for – they need a good and thorough visit to the auto shop every now and then. Regular maintenance is required to keep them in top condition and to avoid engine repair, and Brothers Auto & Glass is here to help.

At Brothers, we know that taking proper care of your engine can keep it from creating severe problems later on. Our goal is to provide you with the information you need to proactively maintain your engine’s health. If you stay on top of these suggestions, your engine will not only run better, but it will last longer and keep you from emptying your wallet on engine repairs in the future.
