coolant
LLC
is

The
L
L
C
does
not
contain
any
glycerine

or
methyl
alcohol
It
will
not
evaporate
or
boil
away
and
can
be
used
with
either
high

temperature
thermostat
It
flows
freely
transfers
heat
efficiently
and
will
not
clog
the
passages
in

The
LL

must
not
be
mixed
with
other
products
This
coolant
can
be
used
throughout
tlie
seasons
of
the
year
Whenever
any
coolant
is
changed
the
cooling

should
be
flushed

CRANKCASE
EMISSION

SYSTEM
This
system
returns
blow
by
gas
to
both
the
intake
manifold
and
carburetor
air
cleaner
The
Posirive
Crankcase
Ventilation
PCV
valve
is
provided
to
conduct
crankcase
blow
by
gas
to
the
intake
manifold
Duirng
partial
throttle
operation
of
the
enigne
the
intake
manifold
sucks
the
blow
by
gas
through
the
valve
Normally
the
capacity
of
the
valve
is
sufficient
to
handle
any
blow
by
and
a
small
amount
of
ventilating
air
The
ventilating
air
is
then
drawn
from
the
clean
side
of
the
carburetor
air
cleaner
through
the
tube
connecting
carburetor
air
cleaner
to
rocker
cover
intu
the
crankcase
Under
full
throttle
condition
the
manifold
vacuum
is
insufficient
to
draw
the
blow
by
flow
through
the
valve
and
its
flow
goes
through
the
tube
connection
in
the
reverse
direction
In
cars
with
an
excessively
high
blow
by
some
of
the
flow
will
