At ECO Engines, Inc in Parlin, NJ, we can tell a lot about the condition of a vehicle just by listening to it. Specific noises and where they come from are often all you need to diagnose an issue and the severity of the problem. Here are some signs to listen out for.

Cars driving on road with wipers and headlights on

True safety starts with being able to see where you are driving. Your lights and wipers play a major role in safe driving and the chance of an accident increases if you can't see or be seen.

From the driver's seat, you may not notice a light that isn't working, but when a big rain comes it becomes easier to see what you are missing! When wet weather hits your roads is not the time for you to discover limited visibility problems.

Have you always wondered what a spark plug does? Our team here at ECO Engines, Inc is here to help you out. It's simple in theory but does quite a lot of work for such a small piece of equipment.

Without it, you wouldn't be able to drive your car or truck.
