Gasoline safety saves

Here's a way to save
gasoline, and possibly your
life, too.
Gasoline vapor is a
deadly killer, but few peo-
ple recognize its danger
when they use it for clean-
ing purposes.
"Never use gasoline as
a cleaning fluid," advises
the American Petroleum
Institute's Safety and Fire
Protection Committee.
"Use only an approved,
high flash point cleaning
solvent."
Gasoline vaporizes rap-
idly when exposed and the
vapor settles invisibly near
the floor because the
fumes are heavier than
air. Gasoline vapors have
been known to travel many
feet to an ignition source
resulting in a "flash back"
to the liquid. An explosion
can be caused by the
slightest source of ignition,
such as a pilot light, an
arc from an electric motor
or power tool, the flick of
a wall switch, or a lighted
match.
A high flash point sol-
vent such as kerosene can
be used for cleaning auto-
mobile parts or tools. For
oil and grease spills, a
cleaning compound or
sawdust can be used to
remove the bulk of the
substance and, if neces-
sary, a steam cleaner or
detergent may be • used
for additional cleaning. A
waterless hand cleaner
may be used to clean
hands and arms.
Remember, it takes
three elements for com-
bustion — air, fuel, and
an ignition source. Keep
them apart. Don't Use
Gasoline As A Cleaner!
ALIGNMENT SAVES
FUEL, RUBBER
Tests reported on by the.
Motor Vehicle Manufac-
turers Association showed
that improper front wheel
toe-in alignment of only
1/4 " can cause about a 0.3
miles per gallon economy
loss. It can also lead to
premature and expensive
tire wear.
THE INSIDE STORY
A device allowing me-
chanics to look inside an
automobile engine without
disassembling the engine
has been developed by
American Optical. This
flexible fiber rod contains
its own source of cold
light and saves service
personnel time and labor.
