Change your oil yourself or go
to a 10 minute lube?
This is the $20 ques-
tion, or is it? Why change your oil just to save $20? Well,
it gets you under the car! And, you may see something
which if you catch it now will save you time and money
later! When changing my oil last fall I noticed a brake
hose had come loose and was starting to rub on the disc.
Another 1,000 miles and I'd have had no brakes! All I did
was push the brake hose grommet back into the clip and it
was done! Did it save me a $2,000 accident? A $10 brake
line? Would the oil change guy have seen it? Would that
line have gone bad at the wrong moment?
Besides all the "what-ifs," I actually like doing it! Just
because others consider it work, I don't. That's why I
change my own oil.
OIL FILTERS
We sell only first-quality filters. Our suppliers, Mann &
MAHLE, are original equipment manufacturers. These brands
are first-class OEM. The Mann filters are made in Germany, and
cost a little more than the MAHLE (which is OEM and made in
Austria), but some people prefer them so we carry them under
their own set of part numbers.
They are superior to those off-the-wall brands you can get at
discount drug stores. Try this: Take one of our filters and weigh
it. Now, take one of "theirs" and do the same. Ours weighs more.
Why? Did they forget something?
Change the oil every 3,000 miles using brand-name oil.

GAS FUEL FILTERS
Replace your car's fuel filter every six months or every
10,000 miles to protect its fuel system from dirt and
rust. Gas fuel-injection systems don't like dirt, water or
solvents. Make sure you buy good gas. A batch of bad
gas can clog the system, and the VW dealer's typical
solution is to remove the injectors, the gas tank, (and
everything in-between) and replace them with new
parts. We have seen estimates of $1600. A clean fuel
filter helps.
DIESEL FUEL FILTERS
Diesel fuel is sprayed at 1,500/psi through a pin-sized
hole. If the fuel is dirty, it erodes the ends of the injectors
making a crater a few thousandths of an inch deep. This
causes injection problems and your diesel shakes and
starts hard. You can buy 15 filters for the price of one
new set of injectors. Why don't you change the filters
regularly and avoid the cost of injectors.

Mechanic General's Warning:
Next to an oil
change, valve
adjustment is
the most impor-
tant mainte-
nance procedure
for a VW
. Valve
adjustments must be performed reli-
giously for your VW
to remain cheap
transportation. PartsPlace recom-
mends you do your own valve adjust-
ments with the engine "dead cold"
and at intervals of six thousand miles
(with every other oil change). For
instructions and more information
see either a Haynes manual or come
by Parts Place and we will give you
all the details.
others consider it work, I don t. That s
my own oil.
