Change the oil in your car on a regular basis. When you keep the oil in your car clean, you reduce the wear that is caused by friction in the moving parts of your car’s engine. Keeping track of your last oil change will save you money at the gas pump.
If you are unable to change the oil in your car on your own, make sure that you fuel up at a gas station that offers you full service. This way, you can ask the gas attendant to help you fill your car with gas as well as take a look under the hood of your car to change the oil.
