Archive for October 2016Know Your Towing Limits in BushwoodPosted October 24, 2016 9:20 AMSome Bushwood drivers figure that anything they can attach to their trailer hitch can be towed by their vehicle.

Hey Bushwood Drivers, How Many Miles Are on Your Car?Posted October 16, 2016 11:40 AM
And keeping current with your full-service oil change schedule is important for a couple of reasons. First, older engines have had more time to build up oil sludge. Skipping an oil change here and there can really compound the problem for your vehicle. Another equally important reason is that your other fluids are routinely checked and topped off. Power steering fluid, brake fluid, coolant and transmission fluid can be kept at optimal levels even though the older seals and gaskets are leaking more than when they were new.
Hill's Auto Repair, Inc. Fuel Injector Cleaning at Hill's Auto Repair, Inc.Posted October 9, 2016 10:44 AMIn very simple terms, a fuel injector is a valve that squirts fuel into your vehicle engine. Your engine control computer tells the fuel injector how much fuel to deliver as well as the precise time it should be delivered. Of course this happens thousands of times a minute in every single fuel-injected vehicle driving down Bushwood roads. A few have recently introduced gas direct injection systems on some engines. They are now available at some Maryland dealerships. These systems inject the gas directly into the cylinders under very high pressure – many times the pressure of port injection systems. Although more complicated, direct injection technology promises greater power with improved fuel economy. Maryland motorists can expect to see more of it in the future. Your technician at Hill's Auto Repair, Inc. can perform a fuel system service for you in which the fuel injectors are cleaned so that they operate properly and deliver the right amount of fuel at the right time. Proper maintenance of your vehicle fuel system means that you will spend less on gas, enjoy strong performance and prevent repair bills down the road. Hill's Auto Repair, Inc. Vive la Differential at Hill's Auto Repair, Inc. in BushwoodPosted October 3, 2016 10:15 AMThere are a lot of drivers in Bushwood who are due for a differential service, but had never heard of a differential before. With front-wheel drive being so common in Maryland these days, the differential is just taken care of during a transmission service, so most Bushwood folks don't even have to think about it. And rear-wheel drive differentials don't need to be serviced for years, so it's understandable that it's not something on the top of your mind. It's not uncommon for people in Bushwood to not know they have a differential, let alone know that it needs service. Hill's Auto Repair, Inc. | ||
