One topic that hits the news in Redmond on a regular basis is the price of gas. The answer for some Oregon car owners is to buy a vehicle that gets better fuel efficiency. For those of us Redmond motorists who don’t want to add a car payment to our monthly expenses, we need to improve our fuel economy any way we can.
Following recommended service intervals by coming into Marshalls Automotive is one of the best ways Redmond car owners can keep their SUV running efficiently. That means better gas mileage. When you give it some thought, it only makes sense. Dirty oil or transmission fluid can’t lubricate or clean. That means more drag which reduces fuel economy.
Keeping up with scheduled oil changes and transmission services will save gas for Oregon motorists.
Dirty engine air filters are another efficiency pirate. They rob your pickup engine of enough air to effectively burn the fuel, so you need more gas to get the job done. Replacing a dirty air filter can pay for itself in fuel savings before the next oil change.
You can imagine what dirty fuel injectors can do to your vehicle as you drive around Redmond. If your sedan owner’s manual recommends a fuel system cleaning, come into Marshalls Automotive and ask us to get it done for you.
A simple, but very effective way for Redmond auto owners to save gas is to keep their tires properly inflated. Low tires can cost you up to a mile per gallon. Check your tire pressure when you gas up – or at least once a month.
