September 21, 1928 WILMETTE LIFE Chandler Dealer Gives Tip on Way to·Break in Motor "It has always been the practice of a dealer selling a new car to advise the buyer to take it easy for the first 500 or 1,000 miles. Various manufacturers even go so far as to print a warning; to go with every car, to run slowly for this mileage to insure the owner that his or her car will be properly broken-in,'.' comments James Levy, north shore Chandler distributor. "It must _be understood that the first 50 miles put on a new automobile oftentimes determines whether that car will render the maximum 'in satis .. factory serviCe. When a new car is run over 30 miles an hour during the breaking-in-period, there is a possibility of lowering its efficiency as well as its performance later on. It, therefore, behooves every new car owner to 'baby' the car for the first 500 miles and besides this, another suggestion should be adhered ·to very closely. "As is the case with all Chandler motors, and tpany of th~ better cars in the industry, the motors, of course, receive a block test or running-in operation at the factory to eliminate stiffness, but even with this every motor has a tend ~.· ncy to be somewhat stiff when new. It, therefore, follows when a motor is stiff it needs ample lubrication, and here is one way to insure oneself of breaking in such a motor in the right way. When driving a new car away from the factory, or on a trip, the practice of lifting the foot momentarily from the accelerator should be foilO\\·ed. This, wilJ not in any way lessen the speed of the car, but it will provide a very good effect upon engine lubrication. "Allowing the car thus to drive the engine creates a vacuum in the cylinders, which tends to draw oil into the area above the crankshaft, thereby greatly helping to break in the motor in a satisfactory manner."
