Need a shovel to dig out of mud, snow or sand? In a pinch, take off your license plate and use that. Radial tires roll more easily than conventional tires and put less stroin on the engine. Result: better gas mileage. Dirty oil on the dipstick? Don't worry ---today's oils are sup- posed to remove deposits on carbon -from inside the engine. With normal use, oil changes are only needed after 4 to 6 thousand miles. When cold weather is in the of- fing, the smart driver checks the muffler, exhaust manifold, exhaust pipes and breather pipes for the possibility of es- caping carbon monoxide.
