That's because the whole concept of what a tuneup should be is changing We like to divide tuneups into two cate- gories: maintenance service tuneups and diagnostic tuneups. A maintenance tunoup is the kind you can do in your driveway. It involves replacement of various components—like sparkplugs, filters and ignition parts—at regular intervals. A diagnostic tuneup, on the other hand, is the procedure that must be performed when regularly scheduled replacement of parts that wear out fails to remedy an engine fault. Due to the complexity of modem engine control systems, sophisticated and expensive tost equipment is needed to perform a diagnostic tuneup properly. If you com- plete necessary maintenance proce dures and find that your engine =~ still won't run right, professional _atten- tions usually called for. However, you can stil do a maintenance service tuneup. The most obvious part of this procedure is sparkplug replace- \ ‘ment. While some vehicle manufac. turers suggest that 30,000-mile re- placement is adequate, most mochan- ies and some other manufacturers rec ‘ommend 20,000-mile replacement.

We promise you less. oo ep ‘CONFIRMED BY THE LATEST U.S.GOV'T REPORT ON TARparing your car's exterior for ‘winter is particularly important if you pian on keeping the car for more than just a couple of years. Moisture is. the enemy. When the weather gets wet- ter, the danger of metal corrosion and paint damage increases substantially. But you can take steps to reduce the chances of harm. |” You'll want to begin by treating any rust areas or paint chips. The trick is to | remove the rust and coat the bare metal | to prevent more rust from developing. | We're not aoina to go into the proce- | dures for repairing rust holes or refinish- | ing panels at this point, and youmay not | be ready for that much of an investment in time or cash. But you can do a lot to keep the situation from worsening. ‘On rusted areas of more than 1- inch diamoter, where paint has | peeled off completely, youll have to settle for a mismatched repair unless you're prepared to refinish a whole panel or the | whole car. ‘On the other hand, small areas of Jess than an inch in diameter, such 2s | chips or popped paint blisters, can be touched up fairly well. And, if they're not in conspicuous places, they'll be barely noticeable. Just take a penknife and carefully | scrape any rust from the damaged area. Make sure you get all of the rust, evenif | you create a depression by doing so. ‘Then purchase a bottle of touch-up paint—if you can find touch-up paint for your car in a botte. Spray touch-ups are ‘commonly available in auto parts stores {and from new car dealers. But the bot- tled paint is much harder to find. Settle for the spray paint if you can't find the ‘other, but don't attempt to spray it on. I'l stick out like a sore thumb. Instead, atter shaking the can very well, spray a little of the paint into the large cap or a paper cup. Allow it to sit for about five ‘minutes or 2s long as it takes for the paint 10 thicken a Or, und 's more i the paint that is meant to be applied by brush, (Once the spray paint has thickened, TT sae Len i = a ae E TS = este UH i bial | To butt out taded old paint and minor scratches, you can rent apolishing machine. But be extremely careful how you use it—any mistakes can burn right through the paint. take an ordinary cardboard safely ‘match and dip the tom end in the paint. Dab the paint on the bare spot, taking care not to exceed the boundaries of the damaged area. Lay the paint on fair- ly thick, but don’t keep fooling with. Do it and leave it alone. Once the paint is dry, the area will be protected, and the ‘edges of the remaining paint wil be sealed, preventing additional damage. ‘The car can be waxed or polished after ‘a couple of days, but take ita ite easy ‘on repaired areas with abrasive clean- ers oF poishes. If your car is coated with road tar or ‘other foreign material that normal cleaning win soap ana water wont remove, you can purchase a solvent ccleaner from an auto parts store that handles automotive paints. Ask the counterman for a solvent that is com- patible with the finish on your car. Read the instructions that are provided with the product. Polishing is important both in terms of protecting your car and beauttying i, ‘and the right product will do both. If your car has only slight scratches and discoloration, you can use a two- part car polish. The first par of this type of product is @ blend of solvent and abrasive material that will remove the ‘outer surtace of the paint, restoring its color and smoothness. Part two is a sealing wax that wil produce a gloss and protect the paint surface from Wweamner ang sail. However, nese pol- ishes do remove paint and you might rub all the way through to primer if you're not careful, 146 POPULAR MECHANICS « OCTOBER 1963BODY AND PAINT ‘don't neglect the brightwork. Check ali You should use an abrasive polish only if i's needed to remove faded paint, scratches or spots. If scratches ate too deep forthe abrasive polish, you ‘might try a light sanding with No. 600 wet paper followed up by rubbing com- pound. However, the danger of rub- | through is, of course, even greater with rubbing compound and sandpaper. ‘Aone-component liquid or paste wax with abrasive is designed to do the job Of the two-component polish, but, again, rub-through can be a problem. Because these polishes are designed to be fast acting, they may be even ‘more prone to rub-through than the two- Part polishes, especially when used with a power buffer. Finally, there are polishes without abrasive. Many of these are advertised 3 “cleaner polishes.” They contain some type of solvent that will help remove surface film but will not remove alot of paint. You can tell fa polish con- tains abrasive material by rubbing some of it between your fingers. tf you want your polishing job to pro- toot the car ail winter, rent a polishing machine that runs at 2,000 rpm or faster under load. Polishing with @ machine heats the paint end causes.a burnishing action. This makes the polish last much longer than a hand-applied coating However, it’s also easier to rub through the finish with a machine. Be careful ‘See the label directions on the prod- uct you're using to determine what type of polishing pad to use. The most com- ‘mon types are the lamb’s wool pad and the carpet-type pad. While youre polishing the car's finish, the chrome and metal-appearing parts to determine if they're chrome-plated steel, anodized aluminum or bright plastic. Check with a magnet if you're in doubt: Wax aluminum and plastic paris with @ nonabrasive car polish. To pro- tect sieel bumpers or other convention al chrome-plated steel parts, apply mo- to cilto the parts, wiping off the excess. ii will reportedly protect chrome per- fectly if applied three or four times a year. Don’t neglect the greasy side of the ‘car either. Check all the undercoating for bare spots. f you find any, clean off the dit and corrosion and apply new Uundercoating material. Undercoating is available in spray cans from auto paris stores. Ingeneral, remember that nometal or painted parts of your car should be exposed fo bad weather without protec tion. And don't make the mistake of parking @ wet car in a garage. It only ‘speeds up the corrosion process. Drain holes or tubes are often found ‘on the bottom edges of doors, rocker enelo and quarter parole, Gome care have drains on the undersides of the heater housing, cowl, air intake at the base of the windshield and trunk. If the drains are clogged, water will buid up and rust will set in Use a pipe cleaner or soft wire 10 gently probe the drains to remove dirt, debris and sush. You must be careful Not to scratch the paint With a little bit of care, your car can look as nice next spring as it did last summer.
