DOCTOR H 40 RUSSETT AVE:* U>NIT NO. 2 OSHAWA 728*-268 LooSe exhaust parts are triple Lhreat A Detroit police car's fiashing blue Iights sig- naled a car 10 the curb dur- ing a recent coid wave. The t'am.iiy of tour was hurried- ly pulled froni the vehicle as an officer announced: "You've got a bonfire un- der-the gias taiik!" The car's' danglirîg iuf- t'Icr, dragging* against the pavement, had created so miuch friction it was glow- ing' red and throwing sparks. Latcr thc alert. police- man drove the famiiy tb a relative's home rather than garnible, further withi the disabied car. Like so many other au- tomnotive troublés, this one is more prcvalent in coid wcather when condensa- tion and sait speed the rust- ing-and weakening of ex- haust systern parts, says Car Care Council. The danger of a gas tank fire is flot the oniy con- cern. Anyone who has run into a failen muffler at highway speeds knows' tlýis t100 is a very reai haz- ard . The imost comnmon threat comes from poison-. ous carbon monoxide fumies. which can enter a car fromn a Icaking exhaust syNtemi., Car Care Council urges imotorisîs to check their ve- hicie's exhaust systemis frequcntiy. The safcst way is with <an inspection Ironi undcrneath. Short of that, a good tug on the tait pipe can tel] you if you arc in danger of iosing your muf- fier. Heed Warnings Turning u.p your car ra- dio is no way to cure a ioud muffier. But lis tcning for unusual sounds coming fronm underneath your vehi- cie can heip prevent seri- ous and expenisive repairs. Rusty, corrodcd, inuffi1er connections usuaiIy start as smiaii perforations and de- veiop into iarger hoies until the connection simpiy breaks off. That moment is eas*iy identified when you hear a loud, roaring noise. Exhaust systemis aiso becomie clogged due to in- ternai parts in the miuffler breaking loose and restrici- ing the flow of' exhaust gases. A pinched or bent pipe can aiso cause restric- tions.which can lead to en- gine overheating and pow- er Ioss. Due 10 extremie heat, muffiers and tiipipes can deteriorate quickiy and are usuaily repiaced at the sanie lime by, repair shops. An efficient exhaust sys- tenm not oniy keeps y>ur car quiet, but is also saf*er and can save mioney in the long run. A resîricted ex- haust can cause poor per- formance and sacrifice fuel el'ficiency. A noisy exhaust system flot, only is a public nuisance but can allow poisonous fumes to sccp into your car.
