Preventative Maintenance Tips

At A & B Tire, we want our customers to be in the know about how to properly care for their car or truck. We want you to understand why and how your tires wear, how to get the best gas mileage, and how to get the most life out of your vehicle. Hopefully, with these helpful tips you will be able to improve gas mileage, reduce tire wear and extend the life of your vehicle.

Preventative Maintenance Tips

  • Change your fluids on time, every time.
  • Follow the oil change schedule recommended for your specific vehicle and oil type.
  • Change antifreeze fluid every 30,000 miles.
  • Change brake fluid every 30,000 miles.
  • Change transmission fluid every 30,000 miles.
  • Schedule regular maintenance checks.
  • Replace your air filter every 12 months or 12,000 miles (whichever comes first).
  • Replace your fuel filter every 2 years or 24,000 miles (whichever comes first).


Tire Maintenance Tips

  • Rotate your tires every 5,000 miles or every 6 months.
  • Check your tire pressures approximately once a week.
  • Always make sure that your wheels are properly aligned.
  • Check your spare tire each month and keep it properly inflated so it's ready to go when you need it.
  • Use the penny trick to determine if the tread on your tires is worn to low. Take a penny and put Abraham Lincoln's head into one of the grooves of the tread. If part of his head is covered by the tread, you're ok. If you can see all of his head, it's time to replace the tire. When the tread is worn down to 1/16 of an inch, tires must be replaced.


Gas Mileage Tips

  • Check and/or change your air filter every 6 months to improve fuel economy and keep your engine running smoothly.
  • Don't top off. Don't bother topping off when filling your car's gas tank. Any additional gas is just going to slop around or seep out.
  • Tighten up that gas cap. Gas will evaporate from your car's gas tank if it has an escape. Loose, missing or damaged gas caps cause 147 million gallons of gas to evaporate each year!
