SATURDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1960 MYHERE'S no trick to mak- ing your winter driving a treat if you take time now to make sure your car is pre- pared for the long, cold months, Dependable starting, prop- er engine cooling, top engine performance, protection against wear, safe braking, good Sires, dependable head- lamps, signal lights, . wind- shield wipers and heaters are all important factors in gua- ranteeing safe and comfort- able cold-weather driving. Service engineers at auto manufacturing headquarters particularly recommend that yo: have your ignition sys- vem checked and adjusted for sure-fire performance; that the cooling system should be drained, flushed, checked for leaks and refilled with dependable anti-freeze as required; that the engine be given expert tuning for quick response, full power and best economy of operation; that all-point lubrication be carried out for protection against unnecessary wear; that brake performance be checked and all essential parts inspected and adjusted where necessary; and that tires be thoroughly examined and rotated to equalize wear and extend tire life, And as an economy hint, the engineers suggest that a well-tuned engine will give you more miles per gallon of winter-time driving if you follow a few common-sense driving rules, < They< point out that ex- cessive speed burns far more gasoline -- holding steady at 50 instead of zooming to 70 can save you as much as two miles per gallon, Tread softly on the accelerator from a standing start and you'll get there just as quickly saving gasoline all the way, And if you anticipate speed zones and stops -- and don't rush up to every red light -- you'll save gasoline, Every time you step on the brake you burn up sto rod "momentum. energy" and each time you accelerate again it costs you extra gas, In other words, say 4 J a steady pace is always the most économical pace, Junior gets an early lesson in the importance of getting a car ready for the winter, WESTCLOX WEEK October 29th to November 5th 1.
