Sponsoring its annual spring car -check campaign, which runs through April and May, the Council advised own- ers to check these positions regularly: Rear-view mirrors; for con- dition, mounting and cleanli- ness, Horn: for satisfactory opera- tion. Windshield wipers: for con- dition of blades, operation of motor and condition of wind- shield washer, - Glass: condition and opera- tion of windows, and cleanli- ness. Lights: front and rear lights for operation, and aiming of headlights. Direction signals: for opera- tion. Tires: tread wear, pressure, cracks. Steering: play in steering gear, front tires for misalign- ment. Brakes: master cylinder fluid level, hydraulic system for fluid leaks, foot and hand brakes for reserve and stopping ability. Exhaust system: manifold pipes and mufflers for tightness and leaks. Some of these items, the Council said, can be checked by a simple and regular walk around the car.
