TEST OWNERS FIRST IDEA

4 ajority of new drivers. and sur

motorists will do more to harm a new
automobile engine liz the first 30 miles
of DRIVING than in the following 2ccO
miles. according 20 claude s. Briggs.
pre- sdent OF the Br;hsS- DCtrGite- Com

No matter how carefully an engine
may be built, it rcquirest certain
amount of running to get the parts thor
uughy worked in. and the treatment
given the motor during its first 2oo miles
of driving. governs, 10 Il large extent. its
future service.
There Is a strong temptation that
even seasoned motorists suCcumb to. to
attempt a good many stunts during tn"
first two or three days driving. that Will
be seldom repeated throughout season.

Tests First Idea Of Owner.
about he first thing tested Is the
speed of the car. and on a nice. level
piece Of road. the throttle is opened IN
wide \ sim Hill or a bit OF heavy road
is the next Ting in order. or perhaps
it is a long trip with n full load of pas
senEers during which the new motor is
subjected to as many tests as the driver
can think Of.
The strains to which the working
parts are put while they are still green
too frequently result in ovcrheating,
with the attendant train Of troubles that
materially shorten the service given by
the motor and make the maintenance
and operating cost much greater than 1t
need be.
IF motorists would learn to restrict
themselves to a speed OF fifteen or eight
cen mics an hor for the first two or
three hundred miles and see 10 1t that
plenty OF the right kind OF lubricant Is
used, they would md that the precau-
ton would return dividends later on in
better and cheaper service"
