The cell phones I've purchased are functional and connect me to the person I want to talk to. Okay, to be honest, I've never actually purchased a cell phone. I wait for a company to offer me a free phone as a bonus for signing up to their service. A friend of mine paid $300 for a phone exactly like the one I'm using now that I got for free. Not to rub it in, but he's bought two other phones since then, while my freebie is still working like a charm.
14. Keep your fuel tank full: People look at me funny when I mention this: Whenever possible, keep that gas tank full. If you run around with a fuel tank that's even partially empty, the empty portion of your tank is displaced by ambient air wherever you drive. This air invariably has moisture in it, which condenses on the sides of your fuel tank and runs down into your fuel line. When enough of this water accumulates in your fuel line during freezing conditions, it blocks the flow of fuel to your engine. Stranded again. As a general rule of thumb, refueling the tank when it's a quarter to halfway full will do the job.
You may find some products at your favorite auto parts store near me that are meant to be added to the water you use to wash your car. Some consumers swear by these products, other feel they aren't necessary. If you're curious, ask the experts at the auto parts store near me. They'll be able to tell you what these products do and how to use them. Then you can make an informed decision about whether a water additive is right for you or not.
Ever have a fuse blow and find yourself with no replacements handy? Here are two methods that will get you back on the road. If the fuse is the old glass enclosed type just wrap a gum wrapper around the fuse and put it back into the socket. The foil will act as a conductor and the circuit will be alive again.
Have you ever done this kind of work before? closest advance auto to my location would be the same if you wanted to work in a nearby clothing shop or auto store near me. The important thing is it's the type of work you want to do and the business you picked to do it for.
If you are experienced in car maintenance you can do this yourself at home. My family always brings our too Jiffy Lube, they are fast and have locations everywhere. They will change your oil, check your fluids and filters and advise you if any need replacement. And don't forget if you go on a long road trip to see if your oil will need another change when you return.
One of the last things I replaced on the car from the auto parts near me, was a new set of distributor wires going to each of the 4 spark plugs. It had been running rough even with new spark plugs, so I hoped the new spark plug wires would solve the problem. I had been taking regular drives into the country side, over some fairly steep mountain roads. This put added strain on the engine, and very likely brought about the end sooner. I thought the car was running smoother, with the new parts just installed. It seemed to have more power and to be doing better going up and down the steep mountain roads.
As soon as you notice a small ding or scratch in the paint, use a dab of touch up paint. The touch up paint will help keep the spot from rusting. Larger dings, dents and scratches should also be taken care of as quickly as possible to avoid rust developing.
