^gggmggggBS^SSSSSSBU J.IU .1 I I ' ...iSpring
Car Care
Aims For Safety
This year spring car care has two
important a ape eta?the usual atepa
for increased efficiency, and elimination
of the unsafe factors that caused
an increased number of accidents
last year, according to J. C. Gilli?,
Firestone dealer, He gives here suggestions
from his experience with
thousands of motorists. He takes up
the matter of safe tires first, advising
that tire prices are bound to go up
and now is the time to save money.
"It will come as news to many motorists
that an old or worn tire is
less safe now than at the height of
winter; from now op tires will run
hotter, and heat is their greatest enemy,"
he said. "Blowouts "will be
more common."
The axiom that any car is only as
safe as its tires is one that motorists
should keep in rtiind, Mr. Gillis
asserts. Unlike hrakee and headlights,
there are no legal specifications
as to what is a safe tire. There
is, however, a common-sense definition-^
tire with the non-?kid tread
worn off or n tire worn down to the
ftibric is unsafe.
"Such tires should be replaced for
safety of yourself and other motorists
if for no other reason," he said.
"But actually it will cost you less
money to replace worn tires*- than
wait until they are punctured or go
fiat. The last 1000 miles in the average
tire is worth only cents, based
on today's prices and mileages. New
Firestone tires have extra values at
no extra cost, and they will improve
the appearance and handling of \oui
car. give added safety and cost you
less in the long run.
"The brake lining on thousands of
cars is now worn to a wafer-like
thinness. It is past the normal expectancy.
The brake drums are being
damaged. It will amaze you to
find how much safer your car feels
with new lining, such as that recently
announced bv Firestone?that is iml^rrvious
to moisture, is a new revelation
in 'soft-pedal' control, and sets
new standards of long wear.
"The battery has been under a
strain in cold weather, and by spring
is probably in a weaker condition.
Its charging rate should be checked
and the generator adjusted for summer
driving. At the Firestone Battery
Factories?-which are considered
the most efficient in the world?observation
of batteries in test cars
prove that battery testing extends
the life and service of the 'batteries.
"The worn windshield wiper should
be replaced. Lights should be inspected.
'"'Radiator hose and fan belt
should be inspected and the radiator
flushed and foreyfgn matter removed
with a dependable compound, such as
Firestone Radiator Cleaner.
"If your spark plugs are worn?
thus wasting a gallon of gas in every
ten?it will pay you to give them
attention. In replacing plugs that
have gone 10,000 miles, and putting
in new Firestone Spark Plugs you
will see a vast improvemenyin performance
of your car."
