DEALER GIVES HINTS
TO MOTOR CAR OWNERS

"This, the ending of the winter
season, is the time when those few
car owners who did not use their
cars during the winter are getting
the driving fever" says Carl E.,
Haviland of the Winnemucca Ga
rage. "They are also wondering
what should be done before putting
the car into SERVICE"
IF the car was performing nicely
before putting up for the winter,
very little need be done. In fact,
nothing to require the attention of
mechanic.
'The following is about all that
should be necessary:
"Drain motor of all old oil and
clean thoroughly with kerosene. Re-
fill with fresh supply of good oil.
Clean transmission case, flush with
kerosene and refill with fresh lub-
ricant. Drain old lubricant from
rear axle differential, flush with
kerosene and refill. Two and one
half quarts for all semi-floating
and three quarts for all full-float-
ing axles.
Remove front wheels, cleaning
bearings and hubs thoroughly and
repack with grease.
'The foregoing covers fabrication
of the main units. Cluth bearing,
universals, spring shackles, steering
gear, steering spindles, fan bearings,
rear axle and bearing, brake shaft,
steering, reach and connecting rods
are no less important. A good
practice is to follow Systematically
all lubricating points on one side
of the car, starting at the front
and working to the rear, or from
the rear to the front, and then
go over the opposite side in like
manner.
Additional comfort can be OBJ
tanned as well as add to the life
Of the springs, by lubricating be-
tween leaves. If no leaf wedge
or spreader is at hand, a screw
driver can be used, by driving it
between the leaves at a point near
the end of each lower leaf. Use
thin oil into which has been
mixed a small amount Of graphite,
squirting between the leaves with
a hand oiler, allowing the oil to
drain toward center of leaf before
removing screw driver.
"Clean and set spark plug points.
If storage battery has not been
placed in storage, have battery in
spected and recharged if necessary
by battery expert"
