Default Best tips for maintaining car engine ?

Here are the best tips for maintaining car engine:

1. Engine oil is the most element of a car engine that plays a vital role in car performance. It should be changed periodically or after every 3,000 to 6,000 miles. Also check the oil level and refill the tank if the level is low.

2. Check the condition of the air filter. If you find any kind of dirt or crack in the air filter, immediately replace it or else it would hamper the functioning of the car engine.

3. Whenever you decide to replace engine parts, ensure that you use original components. Faulty and fake engine components may damage the engine completely if they don't fit in well or are not reliable.

4. Use clean fuel for your car. Adding a fuel stabilizer to the engine can also be helpful for preventing gas from going stale.

5. Inspect the condition of the spark plug and if required change them. Damaged or ineffective spark plugs hamper the performance of the car engine and also prevents costly engine repairs.

6. If in case you find any kind of strange noises from the engine, get it checked from the mechanic and make sure that the necessary repair is done.

It is important to maintain car engine and check it regularly because it is the main part of our car. You have to remove old oil and add new oil for engine at sure time. Whenever you replace your parts of your car at that time you have to ensure that mechanic use original parts because duplicate parts damage your car.
