Need your Oil Changed in Owensville, MO

Why are oil changes important?

Motor oil is possibly the most important component of your vehicle. The engine's oil handles many tasks within the engine.
This includes lubricating the moving components, cool engine components, pump with ease to important engine parts at lower temperatures and keep internal elements clean and totally free from varnish or deposits.
Regardless the quality of the oil used sooner or later the ability to perform these tasks are compromised, along with your engine. It is at this time the oil will need to be changed before any sludge or deposits can develop. When the oil is removed so are the contaminants.

What are some common oil issues that may develop over time?

Oil issues can crop up with the age and usage of your vehicle. By regularly changing your oil you are taking the right steps to extend the life of your car or truck.
Oil changes are known to drastically decrease the danger of engine issues down the line. Here is a list of the top 3 oil issues to be aware of:

• Oil Stress

Excessive heat can cause a thermal breakdown that wears on the oil additives and lubricants. When your lubrication breaks down parts of the engine may rub against one another causing engine issues and shorting the car or trucks lifespan.

• Clogged Filters

When you have your oil changed you should also have the filter changes. The filter job is to prevent the sludge from ever reaching your engine parts in the first place. However, if the filter is not changed frequently it will become clogged and this will decrease the amount of quality oil the engine will get. A decrease in engine oil can kill your engine.

• Internal Leaks

Given enough time a vehicle's engine can leak and gasoline and coolant may mix with the oil. Even though this is not common you would never know it is happening unless a professional checked it out or changed your oil. This type of leaks can seriously contaminate the engine and will damage it in time.
