religious habit of mine when I do a gas up. check the oil. check the clutch and brake fluid level and colors (any big change from the last check up gets noted and actioned if required)
that is every 120 miles. yep. 120 miles. I average 15mpg. last gas up I averaged 12.5mpg if that tells you how I drive my car.
I did an oil change early (i do every 5000km but this time about 3000) because I did notice some oil burning. Probably because the past few tanks I've been driving a lot more aggressively in higher temps and in DD as well.
your basic checks every gas up could have saved you a lot of heart ache
