Oil Changes at The Auto Clinic

Oil lubricates your engine and keeps it running smoothly. If you’re running low, there is increased friction in your engine. Friction creates drag, which means more fuel to keep the motor running. This all translates to lower gas mileage. Dirty oil grits up your engine, which also creates friction. So even if there’s enough oil, you’re still getting that drag that reduces your gas mileage. The types of surfaces you drive on, the climate where you live and the air quality in your area can all affect how often you should change your oil. That’s why it’s important to have regular oil changes!
