Question No. 1 Do hydraulic brakes seed adjust ing? The salesman said not. but a friend said yes. Ana. The friend is right. They do need adjusting but not equalizing as that is automatic, unless there is some thing wrong with some of the brakes. Grease, dust, leaking wheel cylinder, loose wheel-bearing, uneven tire pressure or uneven tread are some causes of one wheel holding tighter than others. The brake pedal should never have to be pressed mor* than two inches from the toe boards to apply hy draulic brakes, at which time an ad justment is needed, to protect the rubber cups in the wheel cyl. DON’T PUT ANYTHING BUT A REPU TABLE FLUID IN YOUR BRAKES. Do you have a budget plan such as some shops advertise? > Ans. No. We investigated it and found the usual bugs in it as in all other easy pay plans, plus the catch that we were still responsible if the cus tomer didn’t meet his payments. In such a plan you pay from 10 to 15 per cent on the entire amount of the bill which is too much when it is often paid oft in six months. Another objection is you are often tempted to have work done long be fore needed in order to get it all in on one bill ERNIE AMBY M KW Auto Senrice Tire Information Headquarters Thornton Tire Service Southern Oregon’* largest and most Complete Tiro Servie* 340 W.
