Your drive belts are simple but integral components to the function of your car, truck, or SUV. At Advantage Automotive Service in Murfreesboro, TN, belts are one of the first things we assess when looking over a vehicle, as they alone are in charge of operating your AC, water pump, alternator, and power steering.

Car enthusiasts would argue that "those were the days". Everything you drove was built like a tank and had the chrome on it so you enjoyed washing it but NO power steering. For most of us, it is hard to remember life without power steering – cranking those great big steering wheels? It was a pretty good workout. Now power steering is standard. The heart of any power steering system is its pump. The pump pressurizes the power steering fluid that provides assistance for steering. Most pumps are driven by a belt that is run by the engine – a few are electrically powered. A high-pressure hose passes fluid from the pump to the steering gear. A low-pressure hose returns the fluid back to the pump. Here at Advantage Automotive Service in Murfreesboro, TN we know that you depend on that power steering and check your fluid & hoses religiously!

The fuel system is an integral aspect of any combustion engine, but it’s particularly important on diesel trucks.
