When any of these conditions exist, the
motorist should give serious consideration
to replacing the belts and avoid any winter
woes. Dayco;h'as more mcently introduced
a new automotive replacement belt which
has been engineered to last the life of your
car: Called the Top Cog® belt because of
the rectangularly shaped "cogs" located
on a normally flat Aide of a. V Belt, this
new belt vents heat better and faster,
which makes the product last much longer.
Tires need proper care in winter
Proper inflation and tire rotation. These
two factors can make a world of difference
between a motorist being satisfied with his
tires or being disappointed with their
performance and mileage, according to
engineers at The Kelly -Springfield Tire
Company.
They suggest checking tire inflation
monthly, when the tires are cool, and
maintaining the manufacturer's recom-
mendedinflation level. They also suggest
rotating tires at six to eight thousand miles
and again at 18 to 24 thousand miles.
If irregular wear is evident, rotate the
tires after determining and correcting the ,
cause.
On front -wheel -drive vehicles, the front
tires go straight to the rear on the same
side and rear tires are crossed to the oppo-
site side front position.
When rotating tires on a rear -wheel -
drive vehicle, move -the rear tires straight
to the front and cross the front tires to op-
posite rear wheel positions.

Easy -to -follow c
prepares car for cold
weather operation
When the going gets cold this winter,
make sureyour car keeps going. Get it
ready now, for.: better driving efficiency
and improved economy. Start with this
easy -to -follow checklist.
• Coolant: Be certain it is strong
enough for cold temperatures. Drain and
flush cooling system if coolant appears
rusty. Pgiodically add water to maintain
proper coolant and water mix.
• Engine oil: Truly the lifeblood of your
car. Check for proper oil,level by reading
oil dip stick found near oil fill cap. Keep-
ing oil level full helps your car run more
efficiently. This can now be easily and
cleanly done by using Kendall Superb 100
10W-30 or 10W-40 Gasoline Saving Motor
Oil in handy FUN-L-FIL resealable one -
quart plastic containers.
A consistently `full' oil level adds to
overall engine performance. For diesel car
owners, Kendall Super DSL, the motor oil
engineered Tor automobile diesel engines,
offers complete diesel engine protection.
• Oil change: It should be near oil
change time especially at summer's end.
Changing oil regularly at every 3,500
miles helps engines run better because 90
percent of driving is stop -and -go variety,
creating higher running temperatures and
increased wear on the engine as well as the
oil.
• Carburetor and choke: Clean the car-
buretor and reset .the choke to avoid over -
fueling and a loss of fuel economy. A
malfunctioning choke will cause difficult
start-up in cold weather.
• Battery: Maintain proper water lev-
els. Use a wire brush -to free terminals of
any acidic buildup. Carefully tighten ca-
bles to terminals.
• Transmission and axle fluids: Hardly
ever checked. Both are crucial to vehicle
life. Check levels and change at manufac-
turer recommended intervals.
• Grease: Clean wheel bearings of
grease and repack with fresh, high quality
wheel bearing grease to defend against
water and road salt.
• Warm up from a cold start: Avoid ex-
tended idling at warm up especially in cold
weather. Allow 15 seconds then proceed at
moderate speed. This will hasten warm
up, permitting oil to better circulate
through engine. Don't gun or race engine!
