Vehicle Oil Filter

Engine oil is always flowing through a running engine and the oil filter helps to remove contaminates. The process of filtration is to keep the engine clean. 

Therefore, you have to make sure to change the oil filter at least in every 5000 kilo meters. Whatever the function of an oil filter operates, the physical appearance is equal to each other. Normal filters have cellulose fiber and micro grass fiber filters are expensive. There are three types of oil filters.
  • Primary oil filters – Normally, this filter is available in every vehicle to remove contaminates keep the engine clean. If the filter is block, there is a bypass valve and the oil will flow to the engine directly without filtering. 
  • Secondary filters – This can be found in Diesel engine. A portal of oil send to this secondary filter and clean the oil again. We can install a secondary filter in a patrol engine.
  • Magnetic filters – A magnet is located inside the filter and it attracts small metal particles. Then store inside of the filter.


An also we can categorize the filter as their operational behavior. 

  • Mechanical – prevent contaminates by a fiber mesh. 
  • Magnetic – abstract contaminants by magnetically attraction. 
  • Centrifugal – by rotation movements and centrifugal force, it abstracts unclean particles.

If you are going to buy a new filter, it is better to buy a filter with the same number that has having with your old filter. Then you don’t worry about the oil leak by unfitting the oil filter.

The Easiest Way to Maintain A/C System on a Car

Sometime you may feel that the air condition in your car is not maintaining the best level of satisfaction when you drive the car in a hot day. Then you feel to open the shutters to get some fresh air into the car. However, when you open the shutters, it is difficult to drive the car due to the noises coming from outside and if there is more traffic on the road, there should be more polluted air and gasses around. 

To avoid this bad feeling, you try to close the shutters and drive the car even you feel uncomfortable. Perhaps you already have felt this situation. Whatever, if you maintain your vehicle A/C system properly, you will not feel those troubles that we have discussed above.

Basically, if there is even a small gas leak in you’re A/C system, it will reduce the air condition level in your vehicle and not maintaining the condition of the cool air inside of the vehicle for long time. Therefore, if you feel the A/C is not well and not cooling the vehicle, you must be checked whether there is a gas leakage in you’re A/C system. There are some other reasons to reduce the A/C system cooling performance as well. Here I have listed some of well-known facts as follows.

  • Stretch the drive belt more that to its tension level. 
  • Block the air flow which is flowing through the condenser and radiator.
  • Due to the refrigerant oil leakage, oil leak spots can be seen on compressor, hoses, pipes and fitting.
  • Compressor mounting brackets loose or errors.  
  • Missing the service port cap.


If you have any kind of issue with is impacting with above, we strongly recommend to take your vehicle to a motor mechanical technician to diagnose the issue.Let’s see how to maintain you vehicle A/C system at home.There is no any matter you drive you vehicle every day with A/C. If not, it’s good to run the A/C at least for 10 to 20 minutes per week. But some people didn’t put the A/C ON to reduce the fuel consumption. Actually, it will not enhance the fuel consumption. Assume that you OFF the A/C, then you open the shutters to control the inside heating condition. After you open the shutters, the air will come into the vehicle and it will a problem to the aerodynamics of the vehicle. Therefore, you need extra force to drive the vehicle and engine is going to generate an extra force. Thus, the losing of the fuel consumption is getting high somehow even you shut down the A/C. And also due to the air coming from outside, the vehicle interior parts get dirty. Whatever, remember to put ON the A/C at least 10 to 20 minutes per week. It will prevent to ruin the compressor seal and stop blocking the hose.

Set you A/C to the coolest level, leverage the fan speed into the highest speed level. Then put the defrost mode and run the A/C for 10 minutes. This method will clean the A/C system, loose the fungi and muddy smell. A/C system on a vehicle is not only cooling the inside of the vehicle but also it will stop the humidity inside of the vehicle. Therefore, you have to put the A/C on even a rainy day. Otherwise the windscreen will influence with moisture. 

Never run you’re A/C system either in low oil volume or gas, it will not good for the compressor. Normally, 10% of A/C gas is permeating from A/C system per year. Therefore, it is better to check the A/C system and refill the gas every two years. So, make sure to check and diagnose your A/C system before starting the summer. Then you do not want to worry about the environmental heat and you have more time to repair the compressor after the diagnostic.

Filling Tires by Nitrogen Gas Vs Normal Gas

Today’s world people have different kinds of ideas about Nitrogen gas which is to use fill vehicles tires. Among those people, some of them are telling that we are filling tires by Nitrogen gas, it will not only enhance the performance, driver safety, fuel efficiency but also life span of tires. Whatever, the facts we are talking about Nitrogen gas, we all have known that it is an environmental friendly gas. However, some people do not filling tires by Nitrogen because of they just believe that Nitrogen is a business strategy to earn money in vehicle market. Normally, Nitrogen gas cost is higher than normal gas.

If you are traveling long distance away from your city and go to rural area, it is hard to find even a gas filling station. However, the changing from Nitrogen to normal gas is a huge procedure as well. Another fact is, nitrogen is not available in every filling stations and due to that situation filling tires by Nitrogen cost is high because it is minimal in generally. The high stress and high performance tires which have been using by NASCAR race cars, commercial aircraft and NASA used Nitrogen gas for long time ago. Nitrogen gas decrease the tire temperature rapidly and reduce the fire risk. Therefore racing cars and airplanes are filling tires by nitrogen gas in generally.  But tires are burn rarely what kind of gas you use. Whatever, the Nitrogen gas became more popular through marketing method and people started to filling tires by Nitrogen for normal vehicle most recently.  Anyway, we have to believe the benefits of this gas is depending on how you driving your vehicle and the condition as well. 

Normal gas consists of 78% of Nitrogen (Nitrogen - minimize fire hazards) and it can be reserved as a normal gas, 21% Oxygen (due to oxidizing it can be flammable), rest are water vapor (when cooling, it turns into solution and when heating it turns to a gas. Nitrogen gas tires doesn’t contain water vapor. Therefore the gas volume can be maintain in a certain level.), carbon dioxide and gas particles are containing as small particles (no impact either performance or wreck of the tire). To manufacture Nitrogen gas to fill tires, remove Oxygen and water vapor from normal gas. Therefore we can enhance the safety and trust that no harmful effects on the security by removing Oxygen and water vapor.  

Thus filling tires by nitrogen gets more benefit. Mostly, those advantages can be acquired due to unavailability of Oxygen and water vapor. The pressure of the tire can be maintained for long time in a certain level by itself due to the Nitrogen molecules are in large size. Therefore, the leaking of the gas is almost in a minimal level. Nitrogen can retain up to three times the gas over normal gas. Tires are touching the ground correctly and due to that it has not only enhanced the fuel efficiency but also the safety. Thus it reduces the wreck of the tire. However, it is most important to maintain the pressure of the tire in certain level. 

Another advantage is, always you don’t want to check and test your tires. Because when we are filling normal gas using an air compressor, additional water vapor volume can be entered to the tire. It is very danger and there is no impact in Nitrogen gas filling.  The core factor to reduce the condition of inside the tire is Oxygen and the wetness. Nitrogen is non-corrosive gas. Therefore Nitrogen doesn’t do anything to lose the inside condition of the tire due to non-corrosive and also reduce the corrosive of the wheel. Nitrogen gas is very useful to users who are not using their vehicles every day and the sellers who have more vehicles in their showrooms due to this non-corrosive fact. 

Sometime Nitrogen gas is useful to use in wreck tires. However, if you drive your vehicle every day, tires wreck from outside than inside. In that kind of situation, there may be a problem. That’s why we said at the beginning the benefit of filling nitrogen gas is depending on the condition that you drive your vehicle. The best thing is to consider about the method how you manage your trip and fill your tires.

Have a SAFE Journey. Cheers!
