Q & A with Tom and Ray 11/18/11

When I was younger, I had a friend who had an early-'80s Pontiac Firebird. It was in rough shape, and it had the 305 small-block engine with a four-barrel carburetor. It never seemed to run smoothly, and it could have used a tuneup. During this time, the owner of the Firebird was living with a mutual friend, who had a little brother. The little brother and his friend didn't like owner of the Firebird, so for a week they urinated into a plastic gallon jug behind the garage, with the intent of dumping it into the gas tank of the Firebird. So, one morning the owner of the Firebird showed up at my door and told me to hop in. He was really excited, and when I got into the car, he went on about how his vehicle was running the best it had ever run, and he couldn't figure out why. It was true -- the engine ran like a clock, and the dual exhaust sounded great.

Is It Pretty Costly To Replace Your Car’s Air Filter And Wiper Blades Yourself?

Perhaps you could have figured out that not all you have discovered will apply to you.

In terms of changing wiper blades and air filters, virtually all people use the schedule suggested by their local oil change service provider. The problem with this is that you are wasting money by using their service. This article will reveal how you can save money by swapping these products yourself.

First off with regards to the air filter in your vehicle did you know that most manufacturers recommend you change the air filter every 20,000 miles? Exposed to normal driving factors, this is what your car requires. However, you don’t have to change your air filter every 20,000 miles if it’s not really dirty. If you follow the recommendation of the vast majority of oil change locations, you will change your air filter approximately every six months. Since they make quick cash replacing air filters, it is a good idea that they would recommend this.
