Wheel Alignment
I was driving to school the other day and I noticed my car woujld drift to the right when I would let go of the wheel. I figured this had to be due to a bad alignment. I know you drive with two hands, but I am concerned about my tires. With the car drifting towards the right won't my tires get worn out faster than normal? Also, can any tire shop align a car and about how much does it cost? I am also looking for a tire shop that uses a touchless alignment so my rims don't get scratched, if you know of one please let me know.

Oil Leak?
I noticed the other day when I got home from driving my engine was smoking. I didn't know what to do, I thought my car was going to catch on fire. After a few minutes the smoking stopped. I thought this could be from an oil leak somewhere, but I am not sure . Does anyone know if having a smokey engine is most likely related to an oil leak?

Squeaky Clean
Alright I just found a great way to make your car squeaky clean and looking like showroom finish. You will need a few materials: car wash soap, a bucket, Mcguires clay-bar and quick detailer, and wax. All you need to do is wash your car, dry it, then spray the quick detail spray on sections of the car at a time, then rub the clay bar on and wipe it off. After you are done clay-barring the whole car move onto to waxing. After you are done waxing step back and admire your shiny showroom finish car. This process is a pain in the ass and takes about four hours, but the results are well worth it. The clay-bar takes out dirt that is embedded in your paint as you will notice after you are done rubbing the clay bar on the desired section there will be brownish-blackish spots on the clay and your car will feel a whole lot smoother than before.
