Improve Fuel Economy with Proper Maintenance at Gilmore's Auto Service in Walnut CreekPosted June 21, 2020 7:20 AMWith Walnut Creek gas prices being what they are, many of us in CA are driving less and looking into purchasing smaller or more efficient vehicles. Walnut Creek area residents who have to drive a lot, have large families or need four-wheel drive are particularly hard hit by the cost of fuel in CA. But there are things all Walnut Creek drivers can do to save fuel: We can improve our driving habits and stay on top of preventive maintenance at Gilmore's Auto Service. These things make small savings possible, but they can really add up. Clean out your trunk. Every ounce in your vehicle translates to a bit more fuel required to drive around Walnut Creek. First, if your gas cap is leaking or worn, get a new one. Third, don't ignore your Check Engine light. Problems that cause that light to come on usually affect your fuel efficiency.

OUR REVIEWS
Richard Runswick, 04/13/2024I own a 2006 Ford Expedition that required a new driver’s seat motor system, allowing the seat to move forward and recline. I bought a used one from EBay Motors. But I needed to get someone to install. Josh and two other mechanics installed the system. Not sure if many auto shops would have attempted. Had some doubts whether it would work - a combination of system I bought and / or installing it properly. Success. Took almost three hours, with three mechanics help. Very pleased.
