I am 19, and I don't really know anything about cars. Besides oil change, what should I do on a regular basis to keep my car in good condition? I wan't to make the car last a long time.


Do the fuel types really matter? Should I just stick with the middle quality gas at Mobil?

Is the more expensive oil worth getting?

Should I clean my engine?

I always use the mid grade gasoline on my daily commute and my car doing fine with it, you might want to try them out to see the difference. I always keep your car clean in or out.
