I have recently purchased a Ford Transit Custom and I want to make sure that I am properly maintaining its engine. I want to make sure it can last for a long time without any major issues. What are some important maintenance tasks I should be doing and how often should I do them? Are there any specific products or techniques I should use for maintenance?
ReplyHi John, to properly maintain your Ford Transit Custom's engine, you should regularly check the engine oil level and quality. It is recommended to change the oil every 5,000 miles or every 6 months. You should also check and replace the air filter as needed, usually every 15,000 miles. Other important maintenance tasks include inspecting the spark plugs, belts, and hoses for any wear and tear and replacing them as necessary. As for products, make sure to use high-quality, recommended engine oil and fuel for optimal performance and longevity.
Hey John, as a car mechanic with years of experience, my advice to you would be to also regularly check and replace the cabin air filter, as it plays a crucial role in keeping your engine clean and running smoothly. Additionally, make sure to follow the manufacturer's recommendations for maintenance schedule and keep a record of all the maintenance tasks you perform.
