Jiffy Lube Serpentine Belt Replacement


The serpentine belt is the key that keeps your car running. The belt transfers the power from your engine to other vital components of your car, including the alternator, water pump, power steering pump and the air conditioner compressor. Over time, the serpentine belt becomes worn, cracked and can break and fall off while you are driving. If this happens, your car will only continue to work for a few minutes before it breaks down. Make sure to have your serpentine belt checked and replaced regularly to keep your car on the road, not on the side of the road.

Jiffy Lube A/C Evacuation and Recharge Service


The function of an air conditioner is to help remove the heat and humidity from inside the passenger compartment of the vehicle. Powered by a belt, the air conditioning compressor compresses the refrigerant to pressurize it and pump it through the system. The refrigerant is pushed through a valve where pressure and temperature are reduced. The now-cool refrigerant travels through the evaporator in the passenger compartment. As a result, cooled air is blown into your vehicle. This refrigerant returns to the compressor, where the cycle begins once again.

Motor Oil: Proper Disposal


The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that about 185 million gallons of used motor oil are improperly disposed of by consumers each year—dumped on the ground, tossed in the trash, or poured down the drain. In fact, improperly dumped motor oil releases about 25 times more oil into the environment than spills from all modes of oil transportation combined.

10W30 Grade Oil: What do the Numbers Mean?


You see those cryptic combinations of letters and numbers on motor oil bottles everywhere. What do they mean?

To decipher them, you have to understand viscosity. Viscosity measures how much the motor oil can resist flow. In other words, if you tip a motor oil bottle over, how fast it spills out indicates its viscosity. The more viscous, the slower it moves.

Oil and Filter Maintenance Tips


Did you know that keeping your oil clean is the most vital step you can take in order to keep your engine healthy? In addition to changing your oil and oil filter regularly, it is important to check your oil level with the dipstick every time you fill up with gas. Driving your vehicle when the oil level is low deprives your engine of the critical lubrication it needs and can cause severe engine problems. Make sure to keep your oil level full to maximize the life of your vehicle.

Summer Tips: Air Filter Maintenance


Your vehicle needs to breathe. An engine air filter makes it possible for your engine to receive the flow of clean air it needs in order to run properly. However, the air outside is not clean. Over time, your air filter will become dirty or clogged. When this happens, the airflow to your engine slows down. Your engine will struggle to breathe. This decreases the performance of your engine and lowers your vehicles efficiency by up to 14 percent.

The program is a grass-roots collaborative effort established to help recognize, preserve and enhance selected roads throughout the United States.
The U.S. Secretary of Transportation recognizes certain roads as All-American Roads or National Scenic Byways based on one or more archeological, cultural, historic, natural, recreational and scenic qualities.
Why "Scenic" Byways?
Our definition of "scenic" reaches beyond breathtaking vistas. These routes represent the depth and breadth of scenery in Oregon - natural and man-made panoramas; electrifying neon landscapes; ancient and modern history coming alive; native arts and culture; and scenes of friends, families and strangers sharing their stories.
These are gateways to adventures where no two experiences are the same.
