RALEIGH ? When you take
your vehicle to one of the state's
Mechanical Inspection lanes
this year, make sure the muf
fler is in good working order?
for that's one of the require
ments for passing the inspec
tion test.
The Manual of Motor Vehicle
Mechanical Inspection require
ments states that "all motor
vehicles with internal combus
tion motors ahall at all times
be equipped with a muffler in
good working order to prevent
excessive or unusual noise. The
entire exhaust system, includ
ing^ manifolds, exhaust pipes,
mufflers and tailpipes, shall be
leak proof."
If you have ever driven be
hind a car or truck with a loud,
roaring muffler, you know how
offensive such a noise can be.
So take your car to your near
est repair shop and have the
muffler fixed immediately If it
emits any unusually loud or
harsh noise. And make sure
that the entire exhaust system
is leakproof.
Remember, motorist, you car
has a date in '48. Prepare for
It now by getting your car me
chanically safe.
Trees grow faster in the South
than in any other region of the
country.
