Change Your Oil:
Frequent oil changes and proper lubrication of the engine and its entire components is crucial in the
longevity of the engine. Premature engine wear kills gas mileage, robs horsepower and will eventually
seize your engine. During the summer, the temperature outside makes your oil even hotter inside
the engine, heat thins oil, so stop in today and get an oil change before the summer heat!

Changing Spark Plugs:
It's a good idea to check your spark plugs and replace them when necessary. The purpose of spark plugs is to ignite the air/fuel mixture, which turns that mixture into the energy that moves your car.
If you are driving around with dirty spark plugs, the air/fuel mixture will be ignited less efficiently, which cuts into your car's performance and wastes gas. You should replace your vehicle's spark plugs every two years or 30,000 miles, although some plugs may get up to 100,000 miles before they need to be replaced. Spark plugs also need to be replaced when they lose their efficiency due to carbon build up.
Following this advice will help you improve the performance of your vehicle as well as your gas mileage.
