That's the advice offered by Jack Morton, service liaison manager for Chrysler Corpora­ tion. Covering the engine of your car with a blanket will take off some of the chill on extremely cold nights. Parking your vehicle so that its nose doesnt head into the wind , is another precaution which winter-fighting drivers can take. An electric light bulb placed under the hood and left on all night will also keep the engine from getting too cold to start. All electrical systems should be turned off before the dHver leaves the car for a long period, whether it's the eight-hour of­ fice stretch or over-night parking. Morton says that, in extreme­ ly cold weather, pressing the accelerator to the floor several times and holding the pedal 1975 350 Kawasaki Enduro, low mileage, excellent condition.

Adams halfway down while the starting mechanism Is working will aid with morning starts or when a car has been left sitting for a while. Starting the car In neu­ tral rather than in park will also help its operation. The old argument between , letting the car warm up in the garage or driveway or letting It warm up on the road is won by the warm - up - before - you - drive contingent on bitter cold days. The car should be warmed until all the cold weather noises, creaks and groans have left and until the car has stabil­ ized itself to maintain a steady rpm. Running in first or second gear for the first part of your trip keeps the rpm up and will help your car's operations. The last tips from Chrysler's expert: make sure that your battery is fully charged and that you keep your tank full of good quality fuel in ice-cold weather. 1971 E.X.T.

For and about Teenagers BY PATRICK EDWARD THIS WEEK'S LETTER: My parents are driving me away from home and I don't know where to look for help. I'm six- I don't date; I can't play sports because of a heart c o n d i t i o n . M y parents want me to stay home, study, go to school and go to church. Anytime I try to do anything else, they discourage me in some way or they just tell me I can't do it. I'm not unpopular, it's just that whenever I try to go somewhere with my friends, my parents make me stay home. I'm in a rut, and don't know how to get out of it. OUR REPLY: There are many considerations, such as the seriousness of your heart con­ dition. Your parents may just feel they have to "watch over" you all the time. What you need to do is to arrange a session with the family doctor and your par­ ents. Let your doctor tell you-- and them--the things you should and should not do. He has cer­ tainly advised them, but it is possible that they are being over- protective. Talk to your parents; suggest this approach, and see what develops.
