Description of service

My scooter has been troubling me, it was making jerks while driving. It was the oil that was pretty low and causing trouble so i thought i would do it myself saving some bucks but then one of mt friends said that changing your oil sounds simple enough, but even so called "Experts" can goof it up. He cited his example so i went to a garage and got it changed. Oil costs me $20 and rest was changing charges.


Review of Service

The service was fast and quick and result was evident as the sound and the jerks went off completely. The mechanic knows it's task pretty well. He ran the engine just to make the oil warm enough to take it out and then checked the level of oil carefully while poring in the new one. Oil is the life of the scooter and without it engine will die in a week so make sure you never drive your vehicle without oil and also don't compromise on the quality of oil and but genuine and prescribed oil for your scooter as its worth the cost.


Tips

1. If you want to keep your engine going, change your oil often.

2. It's best to drain the oil when the engine is good and hot.

3. If you put too little oil in, you blow up your engine, so you had best be accurate in the amount that goes in.

4. If you are doing it by yourself then do make sure that you are wearing proper safety equipments and also do take good care while emptying and handling the old oil as it may burn your skin.
