Austin West, founder of IT Veterans remembered Jim as "always dedicated to the success of whatever he was working on. He was definitely a 'whatever it takes' and 'get it done' kind of guy. At first glance, most people didn't appreciate who Jim was and what he was capable of. But it usually wasn't long before most realized the value that Jim brought to any work he was doing. A bit old school, but smart enough to embrace new ideas and concepts if they made sense, Jim was great to work with and IT Veterans is proud to have had him on our team. "Jim was truly a good man. He was the kind of friend that we all want. He was honest, loyal, and would stand up for what is right even if it wasn't the popular choice. He was the friend that would be there in an instant if you needed him, no matter what. Jim had values and morals, and he stuck by them. He made his little corner of the world a better place as well as the people he touched. He was a great father and husband and was loved by many."

By J&J Automotive Services Did you know that 30% of vehicles on the road today have low, overfull, or dirty engine oil. "Clean" oil is the life-blood of any engine and changing the oil and the oil filter frequently is what keeps the vehicle's engine running smoothly, mile after mile. Each mechanical system in a vehicle works in concert with the other, like cells, muscles and tissues in the human body. Oil protects, lubricates and cools the mechanical component through which it flows. Changing your oil and oil filter at the vehicle manufacturer's recommended intervals keeps contaminants out and protects your vehicle's engine from costly, maybe irreparable, damage. The oil lubricates the internal moving parts of your car's engine and keeps them working together with minimum friction. The oil filter plays the highly important role of sifting out the harmful dirt and contaminants that threaten to enter the oil system. Failure to change the oil and filter routinely often causes increased oil consumption, premature engine wear, major repairs and in extreme cases, engine failure. Jim Drollinger, owner of J&J Automotive Services states, "Changing the oil and filter frequently is your part of practicing preventive maintenance not to mention it is much less expensive than a major repair or engine replacement." The first automotive oil filter was invented in 1923. That alone should be a clue to motorists just how critical this service is to perform regularly. Drollinger suggests motorists follow the guidelines given in their vehicle owner's manual when determining your correct service interval. Motorists in our metropolitan area that experience frequent starts and stops, idling for extended periods of time, and or towing a recreational vehicle are defined as a "severe" driving condition therefore, it's best to it's better to stick to the tried-and-true three months or 3,000 miles oil change schedule. Drollinger tells us, "The oil filter is designed to keep out the contaminants while at the same time allowing clean oil to flow through the system. Motorists should always change the oil filter at the same time they are changing the engine oil. This is one area where motorists need to not cut corners, unless they can afford to pay the price of an engine replacement." Drollinger recommends changing your oil every 3,000 miles or every 3 months which ever comes first. J&J Automotive Services is offering a FREE Report on the "5 Steps to Maximum Fuel Economy".
