Engine Oil Testing
Annual, low cost engine oil testing can tell you a lot about what’s going on inside your engines. These simple tests help determine if your engine oil is still doing its job or not and can help you increase the time between needed oil changes. By testing your engine oil, we can determine things like: if your engine is experiencing excessive wear, has internal water or coolant leaks, or may need maintenance to increase fuel efficiency. These tests can often tell you if something more serious could be lurking in the near future.10
