PAGE 6-SUPPLEMENT TO THE McHfcNKl f ut i . n, <* Seven Points to Help You Start Cold Motor 1 . Transmis s ion: To lessen the load on the starter, release manual shift transmissions by de­ pressing the clutch pedal; placr automatic transmis­ sions in "neutral" before attempting to start the engine. 2. Elec t r i ca l Acces so ­ ries: Shut off lights, wind­ shield wipers, defrosters, heater, radio, etc., before attempting to start the engine. This will assure maximum voltage avail­ able for both the starter motor and the ignition system. 3 . ( h i t k i n a : W h i l e complete setting of hand choke is obvious, some drivers don't realize that most automatic chokes must be set "on" by de­ pressing the accelerator be fore s tar t ing . ( M a n y cold weather starting fail­ ures are due entirely to this oversight.) 4. Pumping the Acce l ­ erator: An additional one or two pumps on the ac­ celerator pedal will dump Like people, car engines are reluctant to get going on cold mornings. It 's a small wonder when near- zero temperatures thicken various lubricating oils and greases which makes it tougher for parts of the engine to move. Also, the colder the tem­ perature, the less efficient the batterv becomes At zero degrees, for instance, the battery is only about half as efficient as on a normal summer morning. Herewith is a list of tips from Champion Spark Plug Company. These will keep voltage demands on your car's battery down during the vulnerable pe­ riod when the battery loses much of its punch. r;iv> guMilini' into the in­ take manifold and help get enough \apori/.ed fuel into the cylinder* (luring very cold weather. T I t r i > t t i e S e l l i n g : W lien the starter is en­ ergized, the accelerator -liould be about half way down to get enough air rushing through the mani­ fold to pick up the fuel and carry it into the cyl­ inders. 6. Star t e r Motor : Ener­ gize the starter at relative­ ly short intervals. Avoid grinding away or you may overheat the starter motor and cause excessive drain on the battery. 7. S h u t - o f f : Place transmission in "neutral" and run engine at fast i d l e . W h e n s w i t c h i s o f f , depress accelerator to "flood" the engine. This will insure a supply of gasoline in the cylinders for the next start. A complete check of the ignition system and spark plugs before the first cold snap hits is advised. A weak ignition coil, defec­ tive distributor points or worn spark plugs can kick starting voltage require­ ments way up. And, of VlymoutH (HKVSI I II Hometown Chrysler-Plymouth says... Duster vs. Pinto & Vega? May the best car win. A Li- CHRYSLER MCFO^S COA^OAAriOfi LAKELAND 815-385-3100 Chrysler-Plymouth, Inc. Rte. i20.McHenrv Ours Plymouth Duster. Some people don't think it's fair that we compare our little Duster to Pinto and Vega. After all, Duster's bigger, has more room inside a bigger trunk, and still gets good gas mileage. But then we tell these people to compare the prices of all three cars. Then it 's even easier to understand why our Valiant is the best- selling small car in America Come on in, we'll make you No. 1, too course, if battery vol^ge is too low to meet these increased demands, the engine won't start. EfrETROIT-The 1975 Cadil­ lac Fleetwood Eldorado series again features both Coupe (above) and Convertible models and utilizes rectangular head­ lights. as on the standard Cadil­ lac. A newly styled grille on these popular front-wheel-drive cars is highlighted by larger rec­ tangular openings and bold ver­ tical fins. A new fixed rear quarter window has been added to the Coupe, providing a larger glass area than in past models. •The rear wheel openings are new on the 1975 F.ldorados and no longer feature a cover.

MINIMIZE THE USE OF AIR CONDITIONERS. Air- conditioning puts a sub­ stantial load on automo­ bile engines, and should, therefore, be used only on the hottest days. While driving at 30 miles per hour, for example, use of the air conditioner can re­ sult in a fuel economy loss of two miles per gallon. As a rule, use of the air conditioner cuts gasoline mileage by 10 per cent. • * • MAINTAIN CORRECT TIRE PRESSURE. Under- inflated tires reduce gaso­ line mileage slightly. Soft tires also wear out more quickly, and may adverse­ ly affect vehicle handling, thus creating a potential safety hazard. Many auto­ mobile manufacturers rec­ ommend increasing the tire air pressure by ap­ proximately four pounds before high-speed driving. Tires should not, however, be inflated above the max­ imum recommended pres­ sure. CORVETTE - New soft - tace front bumper with restorable honeycomb cell core.
