Janesville Plant of Chevrolet 'Runs Off 500,000th Car Clean Out Radiator Well to Prevent Trouble Later Motorists who fail to thoroughly remove the anti-freeze solution from their radiators after the danger of freezing is past are inviting serious motor trouble later in the summer, according to a bulletin issued by the mecha,pical &rst aid department of the Chicago Motor CJub. "This attitude of letting Nature take its course with reference to disposing of the anti-freeze," the bulletin stated, "costs heavily in some cases. It lays the car ope!l to the whole gamut of ills that follow overheating. This is especiaily true if the anti-freeze is an alchohol solution which will reduce the boiling point to below that of the regular wa_ t er content normally carried in the warmer weather. "If motorists would realize that overheating is a prominent cause of the severest engine troubles-scored cylinders, piston seizure, bearing destruction, ~alve deterioration, and the likethey would see to it that the cooling system was kept constantly up to par. "Putting it in perfect condition at this season of the year involves, first, draining the anti-freeze. After this is done, the whole system should be flushed out with a sal-soda solution which will remove· the scale and rust from the inside of the radiator and water jackets. Then, a thorough flushing with pure water should follow to eliminate the soda solution before the radiator is refilled with· clean water. "Some forms of anti-freeze have a destructive effect on hose connections hy permitting them to shrink. When they are expanded by the water with which the cooling system is filled when warmer weather arrives, they are likely to be found porous and ill-fitthg. If this occurs, · the hose connections should be replaced." newe pepped ¥ Chevrolets Buicks Dodges Nashes Cadillacs Hudsons Auburns Packards Pontiacs ¥ I Winter's business has left a large accumulation of used cars in the hands of practically every north shore automobile dealer.
