MOTORISTS C AN SAVE ON GAS OLINE BY SIMPLE METHODS Detroit, Oct 14.?Millions of dol lars could be saved annually by th? automobile-owning public through a more strict observance ot the (actors that control the gasoline mileage of fered by the average aittomoblle, II was revealed In a survey on fuel econ omy today by the Chevrolet Motor Company. A gain of from two to five miles cn the gallon of gas could be effected, on the average, it was ahowp, If the motorist paid strict attention to the elements that govern fuel consump tion. The matter of economy has always been a factor of the uppermost im portance with Chevrolet In designing of its cars. Having brought the mi leage to the highest point ever offered In a six cylinder car, Chevrolet sought to corral In this survey, the many seemingly unimportant dhtails. which through carelessness or Indifference on the part of the driver, cut down the mileage that might be oliT-ained through more Intelligent handling ol the car. Manufacturers have been doing their utmost to make gains in the di rection of greater mileage and now It is felt that with greater coopera tion from the driver, motorists may ride milHons of miles yearly at no extra fuel cost if the matter of watch fulness can make a sufficiently stroifg appeal. Just how this attention to fuel economy brings Its reward Is IUi^b trated In records of performances coming in to the company's offices, which show that although the Chev rolet six is expected to run approxi mately 20 miles to the gallon, motor ists in various sections of the coun try are getting 23, 24, and 26 miles through Just a little added attention tp the matter. The majority of items to be watched are rather obvious to the average au adrqi&te appreciation of their im portance, are commonly overlooked. The survey sets down specifically a number of factors, which, if observed, should Increase your mileage two to five miles to the gallon. They are: 1. When standing or waiting for the light to change, don't race your motor. 2. When you are to make a stop of more than a minute, turn off your motor. 3 Don't drive at excessive speeds t-pless the occasion demands. High speed travelllrfg burns more gas. 4. Remember that the faster you drive the more gas you consume. So when you find that you are about out of gas and are heading for a gas station, take it slowly and your chan ces for negotiating the distance will be greater. - 6. When starting watch the choke. Don't drive with the choke out a moment more than necessary. it Be sure.-that yot?-brakes are not dragging. This cuts down your mileage. Get your brakes inspected frequently. - 7. Have your valves ground when they need It. ? -}? 8. See that the idling adjustment on your carburetor is set at the prop er points so that the mixture Is not too rich. If it Is not at the proper point it gives you inefficient Idling performance and wastes gas. 9. Don't fill your gas tank full to the cap, some will escape through the. vent in the cap. 10. Don't ride the clutch. 11. Watch gaa line for leaks at Joints. Check It periodically to see that fittings are tight 12. Be sure that spark is In fully advanced position. 13. Avoid excessive use of brakes in traffic. Observance of these suggestions, the- survey points oilt will save mon ey for the motorist and. add consid erable mileage to your driving and reduce the number of necessary stops it the gasoline station.
