For your car to be running while at its best, it’s imperative for every driver to keep up with the scheduled routine inspections. With the help of these inspections, the mechanics will be able to ascertain if there is anything wrong with your car. You might be riding in a car whose oil level is low or whose motor oil is contaminated. These are among the things that may be checked during an inspection. Many drivers have gotten used to letting their mechanics change their oil and pay for that service without even understanding the oil being put in the car.

Two oil types have been adopted by many car drivers and mechanics namely synthetic and conventional. Synthetic oil is chemically engineered to offer a pure lubricant. With their pure molecular structure, the oil can provide film strength and fuel efficiency to your vehicle. Conventional oil, on the other hand, is manufactured from crude oil and has various contaminants such as nitrogen, sulfur and even oxygen. Though synthetic oil is expensive, it has been preferred by many drivers due to its pure property.

For any questions or more information regarding these oils, contact us at L.B. Smith Ford and let us help you understand your oil.
