Show Many Autoists Neglect Oiling of Vital Parts The modern motorist by this time has become, as a rule, well educated in the care of his car, save in the single respect of attending to the lubrication lu-brication of the chassis. The average motorist has learned, perhaps, by the experience of paying $40 or $n0 for a new battery, that it pays to attend regularly to its filling and testing. lie has learned, perhaps, through paying for new bearings for his motor that it pays to keep plenty of oil in his crank case. Hut It is the average motorist who does not realize the importance of chassis lubrication, because he never has realized sharply just what his nsg-lect nsg-lect in this respect costs him. He is more apt, very humanly, to blame it upon the maker of the car, and tells his friends that his car lws not "stood up" the way It should. If there were some way of making the motorist realize that it Is nothing more or less than his own neglect of chassis chas-sis lubrication that has been the cause of most of his troubles it would go a long way toward prolonging the life and the satisfactory service of most motor cars. |
