Caution Urged In Anti-Freeze Reuse Owners and operators of all types of motor vehicles planning to use anti-freeze this winter which was saved over from last year, should have the liquid test ed before putting it into the radi ator, Jim H. Busch, district man ager of ODT's division of motor transport advises. Mr. Busch stated that in order to prevent a recurrence of dam aged vehicles from use of harm ful solutions such as experienced last winter, motorists, truck op erators and others should make certain that the anti freeze is: 1. Not of a harmful oil or salt (corrosive) type. 2. That its anti-freeze strength is not impaired. 3. That it contains sufficient acid and rust inhibitor. He. said that instructions on this subject recently issued by W. J. dimming, chief of vehicle maintenance section of ODT's division o f motor transport, state, "Antifreezes of the deleteri ous salt or oil type should not be used or reused; If saved over from last winter, they should be discarded. With the addition of acid and rust inhibitor as needed, permanent type anti-freezes (the ethylene-glycol type) can be re used safely as long as they have the required anti-freeze strength. They can be easily tested with a standard tester and if found weak in active anti freeze, ethylene-glycol to give the required anti freeze strength should be added."
