Regular oil changes every 5,000 miles is crucial for keeping the engine running smoothly. You should also check the oil levels and top up if necessary in between oil changes.

O

Replace the spark plugs every 30,000 miles. Old or worn out spark plugs can decrease engine performance and fuel efficiency.

M

Use only high-quality fuel and make sure to keep the gas tank at least halfway full. This will prevent sediment buildup and protect the engine from potential damage.

N

Keep an eye on the engine air filter and replace it every 15,000 miles or when it looks clogged or dirty.

I

Don't forget to also check and replace the engine coolant and transmission fluid at recommended intervals.
