Westmoreland Transmissions The Easy Way to Save Cash in FORT WORTHPosted January 21, 2024 2:08 AMThe hottest TX news story may be different every day, but there's one topic that seems to come up over and over again – the price of gas in FORT WORTH. If you feel like most of your paycheck goes into your gas tank, this post is for you. Here are several basic things people in FORT WORTH can do to greatly reduce their gas consumption, save money, and help the environment. You can really improve your fuel economy by how you drive – but first, here's a review of things you can do for your vehicle that'll save gas no matter how you drive. Another important item is to keep your air filter clean. An air filter all clogged up with dirt and bugs doesn't let enough clean air through to efficiently burn fuel. Using a dirty air filter will cost you almost 2 miles per gallon/.85 km per liter in reduced fuel economy. And worn spark plugs can cost about the same. A spark plug can fire as many as 3,000,000 times for every 1,000 miles/1,600 km driven. Check the vehicle owner's manual for replacement recommendations. One item FORT WORTH residents seldom think about is their gas cap. A worn, loose or missing gas cap can cost another 2 miles per gallon/.85 km per liter. Adding up all of these worn, missing or sub-par items leads to a total of almost 11.4 miles per gallon/4.85 km per liter in reduced fuel economy! And with current gas prices in the FORT WORTH area, the cost really adds up. Taking care of these simple maintenance items will save FORT WORTH drivers at the pump. Now most vehicles aren't missing on all of these items, but think about which ones might affect you right now! And don't forget tune-ups, dragging brakes, low transmission fluid, fuel system cleaning, wheels out of alignment, PCV valve, fuel filter and other services spelled out in your owner's manual. Westmoreland Transmissions Need a New Battery? Call Westmoreland Transmissions TodayPosted January 14, 2024 10:14 AMHello FORT WORTH drivers! Need a new battery? There is a good chance that you do – 70% of batteries need to be replaced within four years. As your battery discharges and then recharges as you drive around FORT WORTH, bits of the surface of the battery plates disintegrate. As this process continues over a few years, the alternator has to work harder to supplement the battery charge. Over time, enough of the battery is damaged that it can no longer hold a charge and it needs to be replaced. This also speeds up wear on the alternator. Westmoreland Transmissions Tire Maintenance in FORT WORTHPosted January 7, 2024 9:28 AMWith the recent focus in the FORT WORTH area on improving fuel economy, we've been told how important it is to maintain our tire pressure. Stop by Westmoreland Transmissions to see about tire maintenance for your vehicle. Westmoreland Transmissions Every vehicle in the FORT WORTH area has a sticker on the driver's side door jamb that tells you the vehicle manufacture's recommended tire pressure. This recommendation is an integral part of the vehicle's suspension tuning. A lot of engineering actually goes into the recommended tire pressure, so it's important for drivers to follow it. For most vehicles, front tires are rotated to the rear and vice versa. Others recommend a cross rotational pattern. Some vehicles use an asymmetrical tire so those tires need to stay on either the right or left side – it'll say which on the tire. Some high performance cars have asymmetrical tires and different sizes on the front and rear. These can't be rotated at all. Your owner's manual will have details for your vehicle or ask your service advisor at Westmoreland Transmissions. The team at Westmoreland Transmissions also wants to remind you that it is important to always use the same size tire on an axle. Different size tires on the front or on the back can lead to some real handling problems. And tire manufacturers recommend that when you get two new tires, they be installed on the rear because that's where you need the most traction to avoid spinning out.
