Winter affects the engine of car and bike. Due to which many times there is difficulty in starting. If you take a little caution. So the engine will be safe and the vehicle will run smoothly. For this, some important tricks should be adopted.

It is important to check engine oil in winter. Thick oil can affect the efficiency of the engine in cold weather. Therefore, as soon as winter starts, check the engine oil and if necessary, add light or cold suitable oil. This will start the engine quickly and reduce friction.

Also check the condition of the battery. Battery capacity reduces slightly in cold. If the battery is old or weak. So the vehicle will delay starting. Keep the battery terminals clean and get them charged if necessary. With the right battery the engine starts instantly.

Pay attention to tire pressure also. Air pressure decreases in cold. Due to which the tires may appear weak and the mileage is affected. Check tire pressure every 15-20 days and adjust according to winter. This is also important from security point of view.

It is necessary to check the engine coolant or radiator fluid. Freezing of water in cold weather can cause damage to the engine. Therefore, keep the coolant level and mixture correct. If necessary, add anti-freeze to protect the radiator. So that the engine runs without any problem.

Prime the engine before starting. Instead of starting the bike or car immediately after parking it for a long time, first run the engine lightly to distribute the oil throughout the system. It is safe for the engine and reduces starting problems.
