Co· Compos Carroll Solo· Company Shell instructor Billy Reynolds offers 10 clues that may help you spot trouble before it starts • Ovrn 12,000 Shell deal | ers go to Shell training I centers every year. There, I they learn how to spot trouble quickly. I f i»r/» 1Π frnnKln o»r»_ nals that Billy Reynolds, one of Shells ehief instructors, always stresses. If you notice any of them in your car, tell your Shell dealer. His advice might head off a big repair bill later on. 1. Mushy brakes. When your car is stand ing still, push the brake pedal down with a fmn, steady pressure. If it feels soft and sinks to the lloor, you've got trouble that should be fixed right away. 2. Wandering wheels. If your front tires show more wear on one side of the tread than the other, your wheel alignment is probably at fault. Out-of-line wheels can increase tire wear up to 50 percent. 3. Jiggly front end. Shove down hard on either bumper with your foot. If the car bobs up and down for a long time before coming to a rest, ask your Shell dealer to check your shock absorbers. 4. Decrepit tail pipe. If your muffler or tail pipe is rusted through in spots, it's a g<K»d idea to replace it. 5. "Bloated" radiator hoses. Inspect all of the rubber hoses that interconnect your cooling system. If they're cracked or swol len, they can fail at any time and cause your engine to overheat. 6. Marred windshield. If your windshield is scarred or streaked, it's probably due to faulty windshield wipers. Have your Shell dealer check and replace them if necessary. 7. Strange noises. Listen for any odd noises from your car. They can be warn ings of trouble on the way. 8. Under-the-hood clues. You can learn a lot by looking at your engine. Watch for oil, fuel and water leaks. Also, loose wires and worn insulation. 9. Sluggish battery. If your engine turns over more slowly than usual when you start up, a weak battery is probably the trouble. But it could be something else. Better check it. 10. Oil-streaked sidewalls. Check the sides of your tires you seldom sec—the sides facing in. Look for signs of leaking fluid on the tire walls. Could be a leaking brake cylinder, or faulty oil seals on the rear wheels. Both can be serious. Any trained Shell dealer knows many trouble signals besides these. Take advan tage of his training. And one last tip: when you've got your car in top condition. keep it filled with today's Super Shell — for top performance all year long. Super Shell's 9 ingredients for top performance TCP*—for power, mileage and longer plug life. Pen lane mix— for fast warm-ups. Anti-knock mix— for resistance to knocks. Alkylate — to help control "high-speed" knock. Butane— for quick starts. Cat-cracked gasoline— foi power. Anti-icer— added in cold weather to help check carburetor icing stalls. Gum preventive—to help keep carburet ors clean inside. Platformate— for extra mileage. SHELL ι • Trademark for «twll·· u«Hi<·* ».«Hlft» «Mit». OmoIim· ranuinin« T«T Μ nxmd t» u. X. p»t«n« aft Μ» I a.
