This is the time when you’ll want to hear the sweet hum of its eager power, feel the lazy comfort of its easy stride, get the springtime feel of its thrilling action. And you can have all that—with just a little attention to some simple things to shake the winter out of its bones. For instance — the rusty sludge that has accumulated in your radiator should be cleaned out. Transmission and rear endmay be low on lubrication; and should be checked. Crankcase oil should be changed to a summer grade. The underside of your car has taken a lot of splashing on wet roads. Some of the. chassis grease has been washed out, some of it fouled with mud and grit. o % ” S it’s time to out the dregs of winter. Time: for a little of the knowing, loving care every Buick gets at the hands of our Buick-trained men, armed with Buick-developed. tools, Buick-established methods, Buick-engineered parts. It doesn’t take long, doesn’t cost much. But it goes a long way toward making old Buicks step out again like lively spring colts.
