Tune Up and how often should my vehicles be

A. We hear from Brian MacDonald, long time

also runs cleaner. Depending on your vehicle a tune-
up is recommended from 30,000 Kilometers to a
100,000 Kilometers, with the average tune-up being
slipper conditions by putting snow tires on your vehi- done every 50,000 Kilometers."

mechanic. It could be one of a numerous of prob-
lems. However to insure you and your families safe-
ty get the problem fixed. -In winter weather the last

• How important is keeping my vehicles
interior and exterior dirt and salt free?
• Marc Robinet of Archies' Service Centre
responds to this question. "Dirt and salt are corrosive
substances. Dirt will cause wear and tear on the car-
pet inside your car. Both will cause damage to the
outside. Keeping your vehicle clean both inside and
out, waxing twice a year will go a long way in pro-
tecting your vehicles from those elements."
• How often should 1 change my oil?

running as efficiently as possible, and to avoid any
serious problems caused from running low on oil. If
