It's aston ishing how often an empty fuel tank is all that keeps the engine from starting. According to American Automobile Association figures, motorists run out of fuel more than 5,000 times m day. If you have an automatic transmission, make sure your selector is in the correct position for starting. Next step is to run through these seven tips from Shell dealers. Any one of them could help you get started. 1 Use the starter in short bursts. A long, steady grinding runs your bat tery down drastically. In fact, if the car won't start in the first few attempts, it's a good idea to wait several minutes before trying again. This lets the battery recover some of its life. O If you have a manual shift, keep the clutch pressed all the way down when you're starting. This helps to take some of the strain oil' the battery, particu larly in cold weather. note: An engine in good mechanical con dition should usually start in 3 or 4 sec onds. Today's Super Shell gasoline can help. During coldest months, it contains an extra dose of Butane, a special quick start ingredient. Keep the battery connectors tight. If battery terminal connectors are loose, you may not get full battery voltage, when you try to start. With reduced volt age, the engine is harder to start. Some times the starter won't even turn the en gine. It's easy to keep connectors tight. Wash, at the home of Mrs. Deits' mother, Mrs. E. J. Finch.
