Spring Isn't Just For Cleaning - Flush Your Car's Engine Coolant Now, Warns Pinnacle Auto Repair & Tires
Mark Ogborn, Owner of Pinnacle Auto Repair & Tires, advises car owners to flush their car's engine coolant during the cool weather months
PHILADELPHIA, April 1, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Spring arrives this week—and temperatures will soon begin to rise. Ogborn, Owner of Pinnacle Auto Repair & Tires, says that the best way to prevent costly engine repairs is to flush car engine fluid before the summer heat arrives.
"The hot temperatures we experience during the summer months makes the engine coolant's job much harder," said Ogborn. "When working properly, engine coolant prevents your car from overheating. Driving with old coolant can do serious damage to the car's engine and radiator, leading to costly repairs."
A coolant system flush involves draining and replacing coolant, which removes rust, dirt, and other contaminants that can clog the car's radiator. The process is relatively fast and inexpensive.
Engine coolant ranges in color from green to orange to red, which will signal the age of the fluid. Old coolant looks sludgy and brownish in color, and should be changed immediately. New coolant appears green and translucent.
"Engine coolant should be flushed at least once every two years," noted Ogborn. "Modern cars cannot tolerate excess heat. Old coolant fluid will cause an engine to overheat, which can lead to catastrophic damage. A little preventative maintenance will go a long way."
