Archive for February 2022Timing Belt Service to Save Big Bucks in FORT WORTHPosted February 27, 2022 8:44 AMYour engine is like a finely choreographed dance. All the parts have to work together. If the timing is off at the ballet, dancers crash into each other and fall down. It the timing is off in your engine, it may not run at all. One of the most intricate dances in your engine has to do with the combustion cycle. Call Westmoreland Transmissions at 817.466.7295 for answers about your timing belt, or drop by our FORT WORTH, TX, service center on 2001 E LOOP 820 S STE 19A. It's critical that the values be timed to open and close at precisely the right time in the combustion cycle, or the engine will run poorly or not at all. Westmoreland Transmissions The Westmoreland Transmissions Guide to Caring for Your TransmissionPosted February 20, 2022 10:30 AMMost vehicles have automatic transmissions, yet a lot of FORT WORTH drivers only have a fuzzy understanding about what a transmission does. Think back to the last time you rode a bike in FORT WORTH. You started out in a lower gear and shifted to higher gears as you went faster. Down shift for hills, stuff like that. Think of your legs as the engine – there's an ideal speed you can pedal and you change gears to leverage the work you're doing. At Westmoreland Transmissions, we routinely service transmissions with six speeds and several have seven or even eight speeds. As you can imagine, this means more parts. Any they all have to fit into roughly the same space. Transmissions are computer controlled these days, with some high end transmissions having two or three computers. Transmissions are engineered to last. But they are also engineered to tighter tolerances. If a portion of the transmission is starved for lubrication, it can lead to failure. It's really important for FORT WORTH area drivers to carefully follow the manufacturer's transmission service schedule. At Westmoreland Transmissions in FORT WORTH, we hope you never become shiftless in FORT WORTH because you didn't take care of your transmission. Westmoreland Transmissions
Don't Neglect Your Spare (Spare Tire Care)Posted February 13, 2022 9:11 AMIf you've ever had a flat tire, then you know welcome it is to have a spare tire that is properly inflated, in good shape and easy to get to. Problem is many of us don't even give our spare tire (if we even have one) a second thought. If you have an SUV or truck with a spare, it may be mounted outside the vehicle, such as on the tailgate or underneath the vehicle. All of them, especially those underneath, take the brunt of debris, moisture, salt and dirt from the road surface, a potpourri of corrosion potential. The hardware that holds these on can rust into a solid mess, making it hard for you or even a roadside assistance service to get off. If you have one of those, have it checked and maintained at your vehicle repair facility on a regular basis. They should be lubricated and cleaned periodically, and some recommend doing this service every time you have your tires rotated. If the spare is the same size as the tires on the vehicle, it may be a good idea to have it rotated with the others. Some vehicles have compact spares that are in a small well in the trunk or some other spot. Most drivers don't pay any attention to them. Over time, air leaks out of those spares, leaving them flat when you most need them. When you have your vehicle in for service or routine maintenance, ask your service advisor for his or her advice on making sure the spare is inflated properly and cleaned, usually at least twice a year. You may not know it, but your vehicle may not have any spare at all. Instead, it may have an inflator kit that you are supposed to use to inflate and seal a flat tire. That sealant has a limited life span and should be replaced every few years. Check with your service advisor to make sure the kit is up to date and will do the job when called upon. Manufacturers know a flat tire's always a possibility. No matter what contingency solution they've included with your vehicle, keep it in shape and in good working order. When you need it, you'll be very glad you did. Westmoreland Transmissions Give Your Engine Clean Fuel with a New Fuel Filter from Westmoreland TransmissionsPosted February 6, 2022 11:17 AMYour vehicle requires plenty of clean fuel to run. If your fuel contains contaminants, your fuel injectors will eventually become clogged up. When this happens, your vehicle engine may not get the proper amount of fuel at the correct pressure to run at peak performance. This hurts performance as you drive around the FORT WORTH area. It can also lead to the buildup of harmful deposits on valves and in the combustion chamber. Westmoreland Transmissions | ||
