Do I Need A Coolant Flush and Refill?
While you are spring cleaning, add automotive maintenance to the list. Take your radiator for example. When was the last time you had the fluid’s PH checked or the coolant replaced? If you want better performance start with a radiator flush and new coolant.
Why a coolant flush is a good idea:
- Helps to prevent rust and corrosion in the cooling system
- Restores heat transfer properties
- Can improve the longevity of your engine by keeping it running cooler
A coolant flush is an important part of maintaining your vehicle and can help prevent larger, more costly repairs down the road. So, when you’re thinking about spring automotive maintenance, don’t forget the coolant flush!
Additional tips for spring automotive maintenance:
- Check your battery and clean if necessary
- Inspect your tires – check tread depth and tire pressure
- Schedule an appointment for a thorough inspection
- Clean out any debris that may have collected in and around filters
As we prepare for the New Mexico summer temperatures, your radiator needs to up for the task. This means fresh coolant that can take your engines heat and keep it cool. Coolant degrades over time, so it is important to check the coolants properties yearly and do a complete flush and fill every couple of years.
