Lubricating Your Doors & Hinges

If I didn't think it was truly important and wouldn't get gaffed-off I wouldn't even mention this simple part of car maintenance. But the fact is that most folks don't do this and the car pays the price for their short-falls. Lubricating your hinges is vital if you like nice closing doors, doors that don't sag down, deck lid hinges that don't sag; you get the idea. Lubing is almost fool-proof and frankly I almost feel foolish for adding this, but I know many of you will never do it if not told it's important :-)

TOOLS REQUIRED:

1 - Rag

PARTS REQUIRED:

Motor oil

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Open door.

2. Squirt, brush, dab or drip some oil on the hinge; soaking it.

3. Work the door open and closed 4 - 5 times.

4. Wipe excess oil from hinge area with rag.
