Keep Your Engine Running with Regular Oil Changes!

We all know you should change your car’s oil every 3,000-5,000 miles, right? Your car’s manual even tells you when you should and gives you instructions. So is it important to change your oil regularly? Yes, of course it is because when it comes down to routine maintenance, changing your car’s oil is really one of the more inexpensive services. Even though, changing your engine’s oil is inexpensive you really can’t afford not to on a regular basis, as it will help prevent you from paying out a larger sum down the road.
Your engine oil has three essential functions. Firstly it helps in keeping the integral parts of the engine to work smoothly together. Secondly, it acts as a lubricant and your engine is hot so it draws the heat away from the combustion chamber and last but not least it helps prevent varnishes and carbon from collecting in the engine.
Using your owner’s manual will inform you of what type of oil should be used in your vehicle and what the viscosity is. Viscosity refers to the measure of  how much resistance a fluid has to flowing.
Even though the general recommendation for changing your oil is between every 3,000-5,000 miles it is also important to determine how many miles you drive each month and if you tow a lot of heavy weight behind your car, as these will affect your oil too!
Thinking that you just don’t have the time or the money and it can just wait, then your oil will in due course get worse and worse becoming more sludge like and clogging your engine. Your engine is expensive to clean and you do not want that expense of replacing worn-out pistons, as that will be an expensive bill. So the point is this, it is worth your time to spend a minimal cost of maintenance now and keep the health of your engine for the long run.
