Rough Seas Ahead? Check Your Rigging! ⚓️🚗

​Your engine can’t cruise smoothly on worn-out spark plugs!

​This Chevy Cruze was running rougher than a storm on the high seas. A quick look under the hood revealed the culprits: these tired, corroded old plugs were barely firing a spark.

​How we got her back to smooth sailing:

​Fresh Quality Plugs: Installed a brand new set of OEM plugs to restore clean ignition and peak fuel efficiency.

AMSOIL ​Throttle Body Service: Cleared out carbon buildup to ensure proper airflow and crisp throttle response.

​Now she’s running and ready for the road ahead. Don’t wait until your vessel leaves you stranded — stay ahead of routine maintenance!

At Kraken Automotive, we’ve just leveled up our Pre-Purchase Inspections (PPI). Every comprehensive inspection now comes standard with a coolant quality test.

​Coolant is more than just colored fluid—it prevents freezing, stops boiling, and protects vital engine metals from internal corrosion. A simple visual glance won't tell the whole story, but our test strips reveal:

​Freeze & Boil Protection: Verifies the correct antifreeze-to-water ratio so your engine stays safe in extreme temps.

​Corrosion Inhibitor Levels: Ensures internal engine passageways, water pumps, and radiators aren't corroding from the inside out.

​pH & Acidity Balance: Checks if degraded fluid is turning acidic and eating away at delicate gaskets and seals.

​Before you hand over your hard-earned treasure for a used vehicle, let us inspect it from bumper to bumper so you know exactly what’s lurking beneath the surface.
