Oil Change
Why Regular Oil Changes and Engine Flushes are Vital for Your Vehicle
At PMFS®, we believe in the power of proactive maintenance to keep your vehicle running smoothly and reliably for years to come. Two essential services that play a critical role in this are regular oil changes and engine flushes. Here's why they are so important:
REGULAR OIL CHANGES
1. Lubrication and Cooling
Engine Oil serves as the lifeblood of your vehicle's engine, lubricating its moving parts and reducing friction. This prevents wear and tear, extending the lifespan of your engine components. Additionally, oil helps dissipate heat, keeping the engine operating at the optimal temperature and preventing overheating.
2. Contaminant Removal
Over time, engine oil becomes contaminated with dirt, debris, and combustion byproducts. Regular oil changes remove these contaminants, preventing them from building up and causing damage to your engine. Clean oil also ensures proper engine friction and performance.
3. Fuel Efficiency
Clean oil reduces friction and improves engine efficiency, leading to better fuel economy. By regularly changing your oil according to the manufacturer's recommendations, you can maximize your vehicle's fuel efficiency and save money on gas.
ENGINE FLUSHES
1. Removing Deposits
Despite regular oil changes, some contaminants may still accumulate in your engine over time, such as sludge, varnish, and carbon deposits. Engine flushes help remove these deposits, restoring optimal engine performance and efficiency.
2. Preventing Engine Damage
Accumulated deposits an obstruct oil passages and lead to restricted oil flow, resulting in inadequate lubrication and increased wear on engine components. Engine flushes help prevent this by thoroughly cleaning the internal components of your engine, reducing the risk of damage and costly repairs.
3. Maintaining Performance
A clean engine operates more efficiently, delivering better power, smoother acceleration, and improved overall performance. Engine flushes help maintain your vehicles performance and responsiveness, ensuring a more enjoyable driving experience.
