Would “Old Faithful
Leave You Stranded?
Any motorist who’s been stalled
in a precarious situation knows the
value of a dependable vehicle In
treacherous weather the risk of being
stranded is especially serious.
To help reduce this risk, the C ar
Care Council lists early warning signs
of engine trouble. These symptoms
often are subtle, sometimes camou­
flaged by computerized engine con­
trols designed to compensate for dete­
rioration of components.
Periodic engine diagnosis can
keep Old Faithful running trouble free
for years. But if you do note a change
in performance, report the symptoms
to your auto technician for diagnosis.
' Hard Starting.. This is the most
common form of car trouble and the
one motorists fear most during winter
months.
If the starter eranks the engine,
the electrical system probably is OK.
The culprit could be a starting sensor
or choke mechanism Also, starting
trouble can be traced to an electronic
component or computer control. Ex­
pert diagnosis may be required.
Knocking lor Pingingl... This
noise generally is heard when the
engine is under load, such as when
accelerating or climbing a hill. While
it may be caused b> inferior gas, igni­
tion knock often is a sign your engine
needs service. It also can be due to
carbon deposits inside the combustion
chamber. Newer engines have a sen­
sor which "‘Hears a knock, makes
corrective adjustments, but cannot
compensate for a severe malfunction.
