How to Get the MOST out of it YOUR CAR T* FEEL ITS PULSE OCCASIONALLY - A modern automobile, like a human being, can take a lot of punishment and still keep going. Just because your car is able to move away from the curb under its own power, don't assume it ¡s operating efficiently. If you notice some obvious symj>- tuma, naturally you investigate. But even if you don't find any symptoms, it pays to run a finger over your car’s pulse Simplest^check is gas consumption. - J Fill your tank.*-;iote ■ L your speedometer mileage. Keep a record of the gas a< ded. After 1000 miles fill the tank again and divide the mileage di iven Sr the number of gallons added plus the gas required to fill it e second time. Most car ailments affect gas mileage, iust as most bodily ailments affect pulse beat. So if your mileage per _ gallon is low, further investigation is warranted. Bad spkrk plugib oluira. for example, examole. sometime» sometimes waste as much as one gallon galh *® ten- Occasional periodic check-ups are following: Cooling system. Radiator, Bush out twice a year. Fan belt, check for shredding at 10,000 miles. .Ignition system. Distributor points and timing, every 10,000 miles. Spsrk plugs, every 5,000 miles. Spark con trol, for com troi, correct adjustment to type of recommended for the •» h£ >. gas used. Fuel system. Automatic choke, f’ric® * year if seaynal adjustments are required. Fuel pump, once or * twice a year. Fuel lines, occasionally for leaks. Don't forget the air cleaner needs cleaning too, and don’t tinker with the carburetor. - Drive system. Adjust clutch occasionally so that pedal has one irtch of "play.” Tea Given Tuesday For Bride-To-Be Automotive Electric Phone 33 ■ ■ 435 W. 2nd - ____________ .
