It's starting to get cooler, thankfully. How long has it been since you had your coolant flushed? COOLANT DOES MORE THAN YOU THINK!

Bring your car in so we can check your thermostat, water pump, along with your coolant quality. Call 620-331-3730 or schedule your appointment at https://www.ashcrafttireco.com/contact-ashcraft

Your engine coolant (antifreeze) keeps your engine from overheating in summer AND freezing in winter — but it doesn't last forever.

Over time, coolant:
• Becomes acidic and eats away at hoses, gaskets, and the radiator
• Loses its corrosion inhibitors
• Can cause scale and rust buildup inside your cooling system

📅 Recommended service intervals:
• Most vehicles: every 30,000 miles or every 2–3 years
• Extended-life coolant (OAT/HOAT): every 5 years or 100,000–150,000 miles
• Always verify in your owner's manual!

A proper coolant flush removes old fluid AND the contaminants that come with it — a simple top-off doesn't cut it.

Our BG Cooling System Service includes a full flush and professional-grade coolant. Schedule your service today!

GAS PRICES! Is your fuel system running clean?

Over time, carbon deposits build up on your fuel injectors, intake valves, and combustion chambers. The result?
• Reduced fuel economy
• Rough idle or hesitation

And in newer GDI (Gasoline Direct Injection) engines, intake valve deposits are a known issue that affects performance — because fuel doesn't wash over the valves like it used to.

BG Fuel System Service — recommended every:
• 15,000–30,000 miles for most vehicles
• Or any time you notice performance issues

🔧 What's included:
✅ BG 44K fuel system cleaner (added to tank)
✅ Direct intake/injector cleaning
✅ BG combustion chamber cleaner
✅ Restores power, efficiency, and drivability

Many customers report improved MPG immediately after service!

Summer heat is coming… make sure the air inside stays fresh. ☀️

When the AC is running nonstop, buildup inside the system can lead to odors and reduced air quality.

BG Climate Control Service helps:
✔️ Eliminate odor-causing buildup
✔️ Improve cabin air quality
✔️ Keep the system running clean and fresh

Because comfort isn’t just about temperature—it’s about the air you breathe.

Start the season fresh.

Not all performance loss is obvious… until you feel it.

Over time, carbon buildup in the fuel and air system can reduce power, lower MPG, and increase emissions.

BG Fuel & Air Induction Cleaning Service helps:
✔️ Restore lost power
✔️ Improve fuel economy
✔️ Reduce harmful emissions

It’s not just about cleaning—it’s about bringing engines back to the way they’re supposed to perform.

Because when airflow and fuel delivery are working together, everything runs better.
