DIY CAR MAINTENANCE<br />
When was the last time you serviced your car ON YOUR OWN? Our<br />
pretty four wheels deserve attention, too and this means more than<br />
just a car wash. Here are a few tune-up tips you can do on your own:<br />
1. Air filter - You need a new air filter for your car every 12 months or<br />
12,000 miles, whichever comes first. You can pay a mechanic and give<br />
up your car for a day or you can replace your air filter at home in about<br />
ten minutes.<br />
2. Windshield Wipers - You’ll need new wiper blades after about six<br />
months or a year of use. You shouldn’t deal with the danger of streaking<br />
while you put off an inconvenient trip to the auto shop.<br />
3. Oil and filter - Experts say you should change your oil every 3,000<br />
miles, but with better products and cars operating more efficiently,<br />
you can get away with changing it every 5,000 miles. Whichever<br />
benchmark you decide to use, you can save time and money by<br />
handling the change yourself.<br />
4. Battery maintenance - if you’ve had the same battery for a few years,<br />
pop your hood every few months and take a look at the battery to see<br />
if it needs a simple cleaning.<br />

<strong>April</strong> was formerly the second month in the ancient Roman<br />
year, when March began the calendar. The real origin of its<br />
name has been lost. The most common theory is that <strong>April</strong> is<br />
