The Impact of Oil Viscosity on Your Vehicle in Cold Weather

By Bill DeBoer on Dec 28, 2023 11:45:00 AM

As winter approaches, it's crucial to consider the effects of oil viscosity on your vehicle's performance. Oil viscosity, or its thickness, plays a significant role in engine function, especially in colder temperatures. Understanding this factor can help car owners make informed decisions about the type of oil they use and the importance of routine maintenance.
In colder weather, traditional oils tend to thicken, creating challenges for engines during startup. Thickened oil struggles to flow efficiently, increasing friction and wear on engine components. This can result in poor fuel efficiency, reduced engine performance, and potential long-term damage.

Winter Ready: 3 Vital Checks for Your Vehicle

By Bill DeBoer on Dec 21, 2023 8:15:15 PM

Winter is upon us, and ensuring your vehicle is equipped to handle the challenging conditions is crucial for both safety and performance. Here are the top three things you need to check to winterize your ride:

1. Battery Condition:
As temperatures drop, your car's battery has to work harder. Cold weather can significantly reduce its efficiency. Make certain your battery is in optimal condition by checking the charge and inspecting for any signs of corrosion on the terminals. If your battery is more than three years old, it's wise to have it professionally tested or replaced to prevent any unexpected breakdowns in the freezing weather.

Understanding the Ideal Gas Theory: How It Affects Your Tire Pressure in Cold Weather

By Bill DeBoer on Nov 14, 2023 9:33:26 AM

You may be wondering how this chemistry lesson relates to our work on cars. The ideal gas theory is an equation that uses P for pressure and V for volume. This theory explains what happens to the air in your tires during cold weather. As the temperature drops, the pressure in your tires decreases due to a direct correlation. This is the reason why you may see your tire light come on every morning during the winter months.

The formula for the ideal gas theory is PV = NRT. This means that the pressure times volume equals the number of moles of air multiplied by the gas constant rate and temperature. Although we cannot control the weather, we can help you when your tire pressure is low and direct you on how to keep your tire pressure in a safe range so that you can travel safely.
