Engine essentials - The basicsPettit Racing believe that improving your car should always be prefaced by making your car run perfectly as the day it was new. To help keep it that way we recommend a few simple tips.
Keep checking your oil, use good quality oil, and change it regularly. We recommend our new specially developed Revomax 15w40 semi synthetic oil
Make sure you complement the oil with Protek-R fuel based lubricant
Make sure you keep your tyres correctly inflated, and use ONLY good quality tyres. What joins you to the road is in many ways the most important component of your car! When they are worn replace them, and if conditions demand it, use winter tyres as well. Pettit Racing UK can recommend Yokohama Advan Sports tyres, or Toyo T1Rs.
Common items that often need changing are the coil packs, HT leads and spark plugs. Failing coil packs, or fouled plugs can lead to inneficient burning of fuel, which can lead to engine problems, or even a ruined catalytic converter. Proper maintenance and regular changes are cost effective preventative cures, and should keep your car running smooth and strong.
Don't run the car til something beraks, keep ahead of the game, and keep things fresh and strong. |
