The Benefits of Oil Changes

By getting your oil changed on a regular basis, you will not only improve the life of your

cars engine, but you will also allow your car to maximize the horsepower it puts on the

road; and you can make sure that all of your cylinders are firing and working as properly

as when the car was new.

The benefits of oil changes are not so great as the drawbacks of not getting your oil

changed, which are catastrophic. While you do increase the life of your engine and keep

your horsepower maximized by getting your oil changed regularly, these are not as

significant as the problems that can arise if you do not change your oil when it is

recommended to do so.

Firstly, not changing your oil often enough can cause significant damage to your engine,

as the oil is necessary to keep all of the moving parts lubricated. By not having enough oil

or by using oil that has outlived its usefulness (is filled with dirt or has low viscosity), you

run the risk of allowing parts to not work as efficiently as they possibly could.

In the long run, such parts grinding together without lubrication in such a stressful

environment as an internal combustion engine could eventually lead to such parts fusing

together, jamming up or altogether failing. This is catastrophic to your engine, as the

engine could simply stop working or actually explode if enough parts refuse to work

At IQ Auto Works we follow your vehicle manufacturers specifications to make sure

you get the correct type of oil change!

MOST COMMON TUNE UP

Most engine tune-ups consist of: fuel injection service, spark plugs, ignition wires, fuel filter,

distributor cap and ignition rotor. Some new vehicles have a coil per cylinder arrangement

that eliminates the distributor cap and ignition rotor, the ignition coil will mount directly on

the spark plug via a small rubber boot. The use of fuel injection cleaners and additives can

help keep varnish or other contaminants from lowering the performance of the vehicle.

No matter what kind of vehicle you drive always use factory replacement parts, they may

cost a little more but they will outperform and outlast most all aftermarket parts. We at IQ

Auto Works use the highest quality oem parts and computer diagnostics to ensure that

your tune-up is done right.

way to prevent costly breakdowns . At IQ Auto Works We provide pre-purchase vehicle

inspections and mileage interval services such as 30k, 60k, 90k. Each vehicle is different

Having your oil changed on a regular basis is one of the

most important things you can do to keep your car in

proper running order. Literally speaking, there is no

better way to keep your car in tip top performance and

have it run for hundreds of thousands of miles than to

keep your oil changed whenever it is recommended

by the car manufacture.

controlled complex system, but the computer cannot

vehicles engine tuned up properly is vital to maintaining
