For example, tires underinflated by only eight pounds can reduce gas mileage by five per cent and cut tire life by 25 per cent or more. Cost-conscious motorists, Suggests Car Care Canada, will check tire inflation frequently with their own gauges, available in most automotive stores for less Meet Indy drivers THE FIRST Molson Indy will be jaunched in champagne style with a gala ball on Thursday, Aug. 30 at the Hotel Vancouver. The event, a joint fundraiser for B.C.’s Children’s Hospital and Sunny Hill Hospital for Children, will feature dining, dancing and entertainment as well as an oppor- tunity to meet the drivers at a than $5. Owners also should check tires for abnormal wear when vehicles are On lifts for service. More fuel is consumed as a result of incorrect alignment, which can result in at least a two per cent per tankful energy loss as well as reducing tire life. Incorrect alignment accelerates tire wear {0 an even greater degree. Car Care Canada points out there are two easy ways to detect incorrect alignment of tire balance, indicating the need for cost-saving wheel and front-end service: 1) Looseness or excessive play in steering, or difficulty in con- uolling the vehicle over bumps and around curves are indications of problems which need correc- ting. 2) Another is vibration or the slightest shimmy. When vehicles are on the hoist, they should be checked for front end and steering looseness, and shock absorber leakage.
