Jiffy Lube wants to offer Mommies with Cents readers these Winter Driving Tips:
- Check Your Vitals: Knowing how to check for proper antifreeze and windshield washer fluid levels, battery power and tire pressure – among other key vehicle components – is a must to help conquer cold-weather driving.
- Fill Up: Keeping your gas tank at least half full will help avoid gas line freeze-up. To conserve gas, run the heater just long enough to defrost.
- Check Your Oil Grade: Using the recommended grade of oil for the winter months can help save money. Simply using your vehicle manufacturer’s recommended oil grade (found in your owner’s manual) can improve gas mileage by one-to-two percent. **
- Avoid Panic: If your vehicle breaks down or the weather makes it difficult to drive, you could find yourself stuck on the side of the road in freezing temperatures and in need of a vehicle emergency kit. Suggested items to have on hand include a first aid kit, jumper cables, a flashlight, bottled water, extra blankets, gloves and hat, energy bars, duct tape, a can of Fix-a-Flat®, an ice scraper and a hand shovel.
For more tips, visit & “like” the Facebook community – “Keeping My Ride Alive” Do you have or have you had a car with lots of miles on it? You can share your story there or read other people stories about where their vehicle has taken them.
