Here are 8 that crop up all the time. The an swers have helped many .motorists save money. They may do the same for you. Note: New Shell X-100 Premium is the first premium motor oil that leaves no addi tive ash deposits. It fights four other inter nal troubles that can shorten engine life. 1 What's that funny noise I hear? All cars make some noise. But be particu larly alert for any squeals, squeaks, clicks, or rattles that crop up suddenly. Could be -i)HMWIlwifclM anything from a sticking valve lifter to a loose wheel lug. Ask your Shell dealer to help you track down any unusual noise. You may save yourself a big repair bill later on. 2 How can I get more mileage from my tires? Rotate all tires, including the spare, every 6,000 miles. Drive at mod erate speeds. Tires can wear fu'ice as fast at 70 miles per hour as at 45. Avoid fast cornering, "jackrabbit" starts, sudden stops. Try not to bang tires against curbs. And check your tire pressure frequendy. 3 Do I really need a lube job every thousand miles? Yes -unless you have one of the newer models that doesn't require it. But with any car, remember that frequent lubrication offers your serv iceman a chance to spot trouble before it costs you a lot of money. That's why Shell dealers give you a bumper-to-bumper in spection with every Shellubrication. 4 Can knock hurt my engine? Usu ally it's more annoying than harmful. But persistent knocking hampers perform ance and can lead to engine damage. That's why Shell scientists are such sticklers about knock. They even listen for it with stethoscopes and insist that Super Shell contain no fewer than three knock-fighting ingredients. 5 How can I make my battery last longer? Here are four suggestions: 1. Let your Shell dealer check your car's electrical system. Worn wires and loose connections can drain power. 2. Always maintain battery water to the proper level. 3. Avoid prolonged idling with radio turned on. 4. Go driving! Long drives help charge your battery. Tfcf If ? 6 What does TCP do? Shell's unique TCP is a combustion control addi tive. The hot piston device above shows one way TCP works. The glowing de posit on the left has not been neutralized with TCP. In your engine, glowing de posits can ignite fuel too soon, wasting fuel and power. Deposit on right has been "fi reproofed" by TCP. No glow no power loss. 7 How often should I change oil? The American Petroleum Institute rec ommends an oil change every 30 days in winter, every 60 days during summer. 8 Why do my tires wear out on just one side? Most likely cause: wheels out of alignment. Result: your tires drag against the road and wear unevenly. Un balanced wheels can also cause uneven wear and make your car shake or shim my. That's why it's a good idea to keep tires balanced and have wheel alignment checked twice a year. Now a question for you Is your car giving you top performance? If there's any doubt in your mind, try a tankful of today's Super Shell. It contains 9 ingredients including a gum preventive, three knock-fighters, "cat-cracked" gaso line, a mileage booster, an anti-icer, quick starting Butane, and Pentane mix for fast warm-ups. Trademark for Shell's unique gasoline additive. Gasoline containing TCP is covered by U.S. Patent 28892U. For Shell Petroleum Products Farm Chemicals PAUL PETTYJOHN CO. 183 N.
