First payment of $199.89 FRIDAY, DECEMBER 8, 2000 - Most people think that if they winterize their cars in the fall, before it gets really cold, they'll make it through the winter without prob- lems. And they're mostly right. Others think that if they haven't had a problem yet, they won't have one for the rest of the winter. Difficulty starting? A cold engine is a stiff engine -- it's hard to get the pistons mov- ing, to draw in the fuel, and get started. So it needs more battery power. In cold weather, your battery may produce only 40 per cent of the power it produces in warm weather, so give it a break -- use a block heater. A block heater, with a timer to turn it on a couple of hours before you need your: car, will make starting much easier. Starting warm can save you money on gas, too. Take a look at your battery terminals. Is there any white deposit on them? That cor- rosion can insulate the ter- minals and prevent the bat- tery giving your car its first boost of power in the morn- ing to get it going. If your just to be sure. One of the most important things to watch is your cool- ing system. There are two things to watch: the concen- tration of coolant, and the amount. In most parts of Canada, a 50/50 mix of coolant and water keeps the coolant from freezing, lubri- cates the water pump, and protects the cooling system from corrosion. In very cold areas, it may be necessary to increase the concentra- tion of coolant -- but never more than 70 per cent coolant to 30 percent water. But if you're like most Canadians, you're more concerned about heating than cooling at this time of year. The only heat you get is from the engine, which is why your heater blows cold when you first start your vehicle (before the engine warms up). If your coolant is low, your heater is the first thing to suffer, so keep your antifreeze topped up. You may also hear a squealing noise (audible over your own teeth chatter- ing)>from the heater fan. u --e plus security deposi of $0 due upon delivery for Rio S.

If the ignition wires are worn or cracked, some of that power may not make it, and you could have starting troubles -- especial- ly in damp weather. Another tip -- keep your gas tank at least half full. That limits any condensa- tion in the tank, so you're less likely to get gas line freezing. Add a little gas antifreeze every second time you fill up the gas tank on you when you need it most. If there's a lot of moisture on your windshield, and the defroster can't remove it, you could have a faulty heater core. That's a mini- radiator that transfers engine heat into your pas- senger compartment. Don't delay, get it fixed -- you need to be able to see where you're going, and defrosters have enough trouble keeping windows clear in very cold weather. TI TT Wg RN Tn ER,
