We offer affordable and timely oil change services to those in the local area of Herrin, Illinois. With years of experience, you can count on our team to get it done right. Here are some helpful auto maintenance tips regarding regular oil changes that all car owners should know:
Oil Change Regular Maintenance
It’s important to keep your oil changed because it keeps your engine clean. It’s extremely common for motor oil to be contaminated by many things. Those include:
- Dust
- Metal Shavings
- Natural Condensation
- Antifreeze
- Other Engine Fluids or Particles
The additives within your oil often break down over time and will convert from a protectant to a contaminate. That’s why it is recommended that you receive an oil change every 3,000-5,000 miles or every 3-6 months (depending on the miles you place on your vehicle within that given time frame).
Personal Oil Changes – How to Recycle Your Old Oil
If you tend to change your own oil, make sure you are being cautious and courteous when disposing of the waste. Did you know that just a QUART of USED ENGINE OIL is enough to pollute 250,000 gallons of water? It’s important that oil NEVER gets drained down a sink or on the ground. It is illegal, can contaminate the environment, and cause severe sickness. Used engine oil can be cleaned and converted for other uses such as industrial fuel or factory lubricants. When disposing of, make sure you pour the used oil into OIL CONTAINERS that CLOSE. Then label the container and transport it to a local facility that accepts used engine oil. If you are unsure, call your local auto repair service and we can point you in the right direction.
