#1 Change your oil, air filter and oil filter. You probably do this regularly but make sure that you do it before the heat of the summer takes place. Your oil, oil filter and your air cleaner will help cool your car and cause less strain on your engine. Less strain means fewer problems.
Then there's the case of actually buying the replacement headlights. You can look at an auto parts near me or another store that sells auto accessories, but unfortunately they often have the downside of jacking up the prices. In this economy, the last thing that you need is a price that could be lower but isn't. Which is why you can look online and find better prices. Make sure that if you do that you take the time to look over the site and figure out what their reputation is and to use that to make a decision as to if you should order from that particular site or not.
This might actually be one of the first things you should check. Removing two or three bolts will give you access to the thermostat. Lift the cover away from the top of the engine. You will need to replace this gasket and scrape off the old one before bolting things back together. Pull out the old thermostat and drop in a new one. Replace the gasket and cover and bolt it down. This fix is over.
Before you head off to your local auto parts store near me to look at covers, know this. All you will find are ready-fit products. The price is right, but I suggest you do your research before you even consider one. My personal experience with ready-fit car covers is that they can do more harm than good. I've had a lot of cars (thirty-two at last count) and all but my Bronco and trucks have had a Covercraft or Coverking. Let me explain why.
You can forget going to the corner gas station and buying a Genaric radiator hose, as you would have done back in the 70's. Today they're all preformed with a number of corners required to make the twists and turns to properly align with the engine and radiator connection points. The radiator hose has become a specialty item that is car and engine specific. You have little choice but to go back to the dealer or have it special ordered at a auto store near me.
closest advance auto parts to me about fuses. They can and do, simply wear out and fail. Each time you activate a circuit in your car like the lights for example, current will flow through that fuse. So that fuse heats up a tiny bit each time it is used. Over the years this flexing from heat expansion will cause that fuse to fail when there is no overload or short in the circuit whatsoever.
