 3 Tips To Save Your Engine This Winter




How to save your car during winter by Ski LebanonWith temperatures dropping to record numbers this winter, one of the things you should make sure of is keeping your car engine running. Frozen engines are very common when the temperature decreases, but luckily a few, quite simple things can help reduce the risks of that happening to your car.

Engine Coolant, which is also known as Antifreeze, helps to decrease the freezing temperature of water found inside the engine. It also prevents the deformation of your car engine if and when water expands to form ice. To ensure proper results, always mix and use antifreeze according to the product's label and intsructions.

The right oil and viscosity is necessary to keeping your engine running during the colder months. Make sure you have the right ammount of oil for your car's engine in order to ensure your car starts properly on cold mornings.

Car antifreeze by Ski LebanonAnother thing to keep in mind is your battery. You should regularly check and clean your car battery throughout the year, and if it is getting old and starting to act up it is a good idea to replace it before winter sets in. To protect your battery from the frost and ice, you could buy a battery blanket which helps to protect and insulate your battery from the cold. A budget-friendly alterntive would be to wrap old, used blankets on the exterior of your car. Funny and very efficient!
