Keep Your Car Happy this Winter


One of the most important things you can do to make sure your car stays happy this winter is to keep your coolant level full. You need to check this more often in the winter than in the summer.
Why do you need to check the coolant more often in the winter?
Surprisingly , the car will over heat faster in the winter than in the summer because it takes longer for the engine oil to warm and lubricate in return creating more friction which causes heat. So the more friction for a longer period of time will create more heat , faster.
Each car runs a 50/50 ratio of coolant and water. So if your level is less than a qt low, you can simply add water. It is recommended to use distilled water, but when it means making it home ... I think tap water will work just fine.
Keep your car happy and hopefully it will return the favor ~!!
