Answers to 8 questions on car care
that Shell dealers often hear
Shell dealers answer thousands of questions every
year. 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.

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.
