Our expert team is here to provide top-notch heavy-duty oil and fluid repairs to keep your trucks running smoothly on the road. From engine oil changes to addressing contained oil, no matter what, we've got you covered.
Is It Ok to Change Oil Once a Year?
It is essential to change your oil annually, even if you have driven less than 25,000 miles. Despite low mileage, engine oil can deteriorate over time due to exposure to temperature fluctuations, contaminants, and oxidation. Regular oil changes help maintain optimal lubrication, cooling, and protection for your engine.
What Does Black Engine Oil Mean?
Thick, very dark, or black engine oil typically indicates that your oil has been exposed to dirt or dust contaminants, leading to soot build-up. In direct-injection diesel engines, soot is a natural byproduct, causing your oil to turn black and thick.
Commercial Truck Oil Change in Plaistow, NH
At Tri-State Diesel Repair, we follow a meticulous process for heavy-duty truck oil changes to ensure the best results:
Drain Old Oil: We begin by draining the old engine oil completely. This step is crucial to removing contaminants and used-up additives.
Replace Oil Filter: A clean oil filter is essential to trap impurities and protect the engine from harmful particles. We replace the oil filter with a high-quality one.
Check Oil Viscosity: Choosing the right oil viscosity is crucial for heavy-duty engines. Our experts ensure the correct oil type and viscosity for your specific truck model.
Inspect Oil Pan and Drain Plug: We carefully inspect the oil pan and drain plug for any signs of damage or leaks, addressing them promptly to prevent further issues.
Refill with Fresh Oil: We refill the engine with high-quality, heavy-duty oil that meets or exceeds manufacturer specifications.
Run the Engine and Check for Leaks: After the oil change, we run the engine and thoroughly inspect for any leaks or irregularities.
