IS your car more than five years old and do you want to save money on fuel costs?

If so, then head to Eastleigh College’s free Reduce Your Car’s Carbon Footprint day on Wednesday March 11.

All eligible cars will receive a free ‘injector value clean’ which organisers say will reduce emissions and improve fuel efficiency.

Mike Driscoll, learning manager for the college’s automotive department said: “Not only are you helping save the environment by having a cleaner running engine, but you are also saving yourself money on petrol.

“That’s got to be good for everyone.”

All vehicles will be inspected by Eastleigh’s workshop technician James Francis before being accepted on to the programme.

Typically vehicles dating from between 1996 and 2002 are required (petrol engines only).

To book in your vehicle for an initial inspection call James Francis, Eastleigh College’s automotive technician on 023 8091 1075 or e-mail autoservice@eastleigh.ac.uk.
