It is obvious that gas is needed to get from point a to b, unless you have an electric car. Either way, some type of electric or gas power is needed to propel you around where you need to go. What about your oil? What do you need to check for to make sure everything is smooth and problem free?
Oil Level:
Checking your oil level regularly is an important habit to begin. To check your oil level is not as hard as it may seem. Before anything, make sure you have a paper towel or washcloth. We will talk about that later.
The first thing to do is to pop your hood. Look inside your car on the driver’s side, you should see the lever that will allow you to open the hood. Once your hood is slightly popped, feel around for the lever that allows the hood to rise all the way up (hardest part) and lastly search for the oil gauge. The gauge will look like a long thermometer once you pull it out. There is a minimum, and a maximum oil level to monitor.
To view this, wipe the oil off of the gauge with your cloth or paper towel. You can use your hand, but then you will realize that oil is slimy and nasty. To get rid of the sliminess, the first instinct is to wipe it on your pants. This is not what we recommend at Edmond Hyundai, don’t ruin your pants or washer machine by wiping oil on them. This is a party foul.
Save yourself the trouble and use your cloth or paper towel then stick the gauge back into to the oil compartment. Upon the second viewing, you will get a clear reading. Too low oil level will be below the minimum line, too much oil level will be over the maximum line.
Low oil will lead to a decrease in car performance, burning oil smell, engine clunking and overheating. All of these can lead to further problems that might be beyond repair.
Too much oil and the more the merrier does not apply here. Instead, think more oil more problems. Overflowing of oil can happen if there is too much in your car, burning oil smell is another side effect and smoke from the engine compartment. Only place rising smoke is accepted and cherished is on a grill or a smoker. Never from your engine.
