mentally responsible. In
addition to the regular for-
mula, you can now buy Non-
Chlorinated Brakleen (with
chlorinated solvents
removed) and also Brakleen
Plus, a formula that is 95-
percent free of volatile
organic compounds (VOCs).

Stopping noise with
brake chemicals

Those squeals and
squeaks after the brake job
is finished are nothing more
than vibration somewhere
in the brake system.

In addition to cleaning all
parts thoroughly and check-
ing to see that you have the
right anti-rattle clips or
brake shims, you can apply

a product, such as CRC’s.

Disk Brake Quiet, to the
backs of the brake pads after
cleaning them. Disc Brake
Quiet dampens vibration in
the disc brake pads.

Lubrication assures
safe brakes

Another way to ensure a
trouble-free brake job, say
CRC spokesmen, is to spray
all linkages and moving parts
with a lubricant/ penetrant/
metal protector, such as
CRC’s 5-56®. Lubricant/
penetrants like 5-56 will free
dirty or tight connections,
lubricate the linkage and
help prevent rust formation.

Your family’s safety may
depend on how well you
perform your brake work.
Do it the right way. Today,
manufacturers like CRC
Industries provide modern
service chemicals to make
your brake jobs fast, effec-
tive and safe.

Winter Driving Tips

1. Increase your tire pres-
sure to compensate for cold
conditions. A drop of 11
degrees celsius reduces tire
pressure by 2 psi. Under-
inflation is very hard on tire
life and reduces control.

2. Check your tire pressure
outside. If you keep your car
in a garage, there's no point
checking them there. The
pressure won't be the same as
when you're outside.

3. Store your summer tires
properly. If they're left on
rims, decrease the pressure
to about 50% of their driv-
ing pressure and store them
flat. Keep them in tire bags
and away from grease or
other chemicals.

4. Inflate your summer
tires before installation.
Make a note to re-inflate
the tires to the correct pres-
sure before you install them

next spring.

ON THE MOVE

Frequent Business Travelers
Prefer To Sit Next To...

Customer/Client

CEO or Boss

Business travel:
One office to go please!

(NC) - Portable computers
have dropped the office right
into your lap and a new sur-
vey from Dell Computer
Corporation suggests that
out-of-sight, out-of-mind
may be a thing of the past.

In a random survey of
500 business travelers this
summer, Dell found that 58
per cent of people doing
business on-the-road are
“Techno-Travelers” who
use,.a-portable computer to
maximize their time away
from the office. In fact,
more than 61 per cent
believe that using a
portable computer makes
them more productive on
business trips.

Attitudes value work away
from office

The practice of using a
portable reflects the kind of
attitude business profession-
als are bringing to their jobs.
When asked what they
would do on a business flight
if given a choice, 91 per cent
said that their first choice
would be to prepare for
theetings or read, with talk-
ing or sleeping finishing a
distant second and third.

Memos, modem and fax °
So what exactly are all
these high productivity busi-
ness professionals doing
with their portable comput-
ers when they’re 35,000 feet
up in the air? The “Techno-
Traveler” survey says 88 per
cent use their computers to
write memos, with large
numbers using their note-
book computer to modem
documents or fax.

Getting ahead means
traveling light with
maximum power

This drive to be productive
also has today’s “Techno-
Traveler” trying to avoid two
serious obstacles to “up-
time”. Survey results showed
that the weight of a portable
and its battery life were two
problem areas for “ “Techno-
Travelers” who felt held
back by the problem of lug-
ging a computer around or
having the battery die when
they needed it most.

“People use P on
planes and on the farm. From
sales calls to conventions
they need a computer that is
as long lasting and portable
as they are,” says Dell Cana-
da President, Harvey Cole-
man. “It’s part of the thinking
behind Dell’s lightweight
portables with eight hours of
battery life that work in the
real world where our cus-
tomers need us.”

What’s going on up there? ~

Many people see someone
using a notebook computer
and wonder if that someone
isn’t just using it to play
games. What other reason
would there be for including

program we've
a seen before. Surprisingly
though, only 6 per cent
admit using their notebook
to play games.

But while most don’t
play solitaire, the would
like to be left alone. The
“Techno-Traveler” survey
says that 55 per cent would
prefer to sit next to an
empty seat with only 9 per
cent preferring the compa-
ny of their boss. Looks like
even the productive “Tech-
no-Traveler” has limits
when it comes to taking
the office on-the-road.

the Techno-Traveler survey,

Winter Driving Tips

5. When the first snow
falls, try out your car in an
empty parking lot in order
to re-acquaint yourself
with its winter handling
hearacteristics. A few prac-
tice runs in a controlled envi-
ronment and you'll be ready
to avoid the motorist who's
driving out of control.

6. When driving on snow
or ice, plan your moves
only ask your car to do one
thing at a time. Braking,
steering, accelerating in
slippery conditions all
require the most from you
and your car, so be smooth
and keep it simple.

7. If you get stuck and only
one wheel is spinning,
don't spin too fast. When
just one wheel is spinning,
the speedometer will only
show you 1/2 of the actual
speed. If it shows 30 kph,
your tire is actually spi rf
