Essential Maintenance to Keep Your Chevrolet S10 Blazer Running Newer, Longer

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1985 Chevrolet S10 Blazer and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your S10 Blazer's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1985 Chevrolet S10 Blazer. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Chevrolet S10 Blazer battery. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty S10 Blazer) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Chevrolet S10 Blazer won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can help your 1985 Chevrolet S10 Blazer's engine run smoother. See Chevrolet's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 1985 S10 Blazer in the chart at the top of this page. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 1985 Chevrolet S10 Blazer.

Periodic service to the steering system in your Chevrolet S10 Blazer can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!).
