6 Ways To Maintain A Car’s Engine

4/17/2023

​Having a car also means keeping it secure and safe from any damage. Car maintenance can be expensive, especially if you let small issues fall by the wayside and do not get them checked by your mechanic. You should know the basic car maintenance routine to keep your car engine healthy and safe to drive.
6 Ways to Maintain a Car’s Engine
Car engines have different parts that need regular checking. You must keep in mind these common ways to maintain your engine:
  1. Cooling System
    It is important to check if your car can maintain the ideal temperature and hold an adequate level of coolant. The cooling system should be able to take excess heat out of your engine, which prevents overheating. You can examine this by checking the coolant tank to see if you can see the liquid inside. It should be green or orange-colored and over half full. Never mix the two different color types of coolant.  

  2. Air Filter
    Oxygen should have a constant flow to keep the engine running. Checking air filters will help you see any particles or dirt that can hinder the flow of air that enters the engine. You must have a regular checking schedule of the air filter to ensure that the filter needs replacement.

  3. Warning Light
    Seeing an orange color near the speedometer usually indicates a problem with your engine’s temperature, alternator, battery, and other parts. Make immediate action to take your car to the service center when you notice an engine icon in your instrument cluster.

  4. Leakage
    Leaks can be checked by looking for fluids like oil below your car, especially for diesel engines. Engine hoses may cause this issue. You can also find leaks in closed or joined parts, like rubber seals or silicon. It is important to fix this issue immediately and have it checked by the nearest auto services center. 

  5. Reserve Fuel
    Fuel tanks can accumulate massive amounts of junk diesel and petrol. A fuel filter helps prevent these sediments from entering the engine. The fuel filter can be damaged when driving with reserve fuel. Since the junk can be pulled from the bottom of the tank, it may enter and cause the engine to get internal damage. 

  6. Change the Oil
    Lubrication using engine oil is essential for engines to function. Carmakers set oil change intervals to ensure the engine functions well. Avoid serious damage and expensive maintenance by following the set oil change schedule.

Save Your Engine From Damages
Small issues can lead to more serious damages and car problems in the long run. Regular checking a maintenance routine will keep you updated with your car’s status and keep you and your passengers safe.
