Mostare
used
for
holding
irregularobjects,
bending,or
crimp-
ing
.
Some
have
special
applications
.
A
needlenose
plier
is
used
for
gripping
small
and
poorly
ac-
cessible
objects,
and
is
useful
for
wiring
and
other
electrical
work
.
A
locking
plier
suchas
theVise-Grip
®
is
useful
because
of
its
tightgrip
.
Snap-ring
and
circlip
pliers
withspecial
tipped
jacas
areused
lo
remove
and
install
snap-ringsor
circlips
.
A
Channel-lock®
or
water
pump
plier
has
adjustable
jacas
that
can
be
quickly
changed
to
match
the
size
of
the
object
being
held
to
give
great-
erleverage
.
An
adjustable
wrench
canbea
useful
addition
to
a
small
tool
kit
.

can
substitute
in

pinch,
if

Windshield
Wiper
Biade
Maintenance
Common
problems
with
the
windshield
wipers
include
streaking
or
sheeting,
water
drops
after
wiping,
and
blade
chat-
ter
.
Streaking
is
usually
caused
when
wiper
blades
are
coated
with
road
film
or
car
wash
wax
.
Clean
the
blades
using
soapy
water
.
If
cleaning
theblades
does
not
cure
the
problem
then
they
should
be
replaced
.
BMW
recommends
replacing
the
wip-
er
blades
twice
a
year,
before
and
after
the
cold
season
.
Onold-
er
cars,
check
the
tension
spring
that
holds
the
wiper
to
the
glass
.
Replace
the
wiper
arm
if
the
springs
are
weak
.
Drops
that
remainbehind
after
wipingare
caused
by
oil,
road
film,
or
diesel
exhaust
coating
the
windshield
.
Use
an
alcohol
or
ammonia
solution,
or
a
non-abrasive
cleanser
to
clean
the
windshield
.
Wiper
blade
chatter
may
be
caused
by
dirty
or
worn
blades,
bya
dirty
windshield,
or
by
bentor
twisted
wiper
arms
.
Clean
the
blades
and
windshield
as
described
above
.
Adjust
the
wiper
arm
so
that
there
is
even
pressure
along
the
blade,
and
so
that
the
blade
is
perpendicular
to
the
windshield
atrest
.
Lubricate
the
wiper
linkage
with
a
light
oil
.
The
linkage
is
located
under
the
hood
on
the
drivers
side
.
If
the
problem
persists,
theblades
are
excessively
aged
or
worn
and
should
be
replaced
.
See
611
Wipers
and
Washers
.
Body
and
hinges,
lubricating
The
door
locks
and
lock

canbe
lubricated
with
an
oil
that
contains
graphite
.
The
body
and

the
hood
latch,
and
the
door
check
rods
should
be
lubricated
with
SAE
30
or

.
Lubricate
the
seat

with
multipurpose

.
Do
not
apply
any

.
If
door
weatherstrips
are
sticking,
lubricate
them
with
silicone
spray
or
talcum

.
The

should
be
lubricated
as

The

solute
minimum,
as
the
alcohol
in

out
of
the

and
may
cause

condition
of
the
friction
components
.
Air
in
the
Brake
fluid
will
make
the
Brake
pedal
feel
spongy
during
braking
or
will
increase
the
Brake
pedalforce
required
to
stop
.
Fluid
contaminated
by
moisture
or
dirt
can
corrode
the
system
.
Inspect
the
Brake
fluid
inside
the
reservoir
.
Ifit
is
dirty
or
murky,
or
is
over
a
year
old,
the
fluid
should
be
replaced
.
Visually
check
the
hydraulic
system
startingat
the
master
cylinder
.
To
check
the
function
of
the
master
cylinder
hold
the
brake
pedal
down
hard
with
the
engine
running
.
The
pedal
should
feelsolid
and
stay
solid
.
If
the
pedal
slowly
falls
to
the
floor,
either
the
master
cylinder
is
leaking
internally,
or
fluid
is
leaking
externally
.
If
no
leaks
canbe
found,
the
master
cylin-
der
is
faulty
and
should
be
replaced
.
Check
all
Brake
fluid
lines
and
couplings
for
leaks,
kinks,
chafing
and
corrosion
.
Check
the
Brake
booster
by
pumping
the
Brake
pedal
ap-
proximately
10
times
with
the
engine
off
.
Hold
the
pedal
down
and
start
the
engine
.
The
pedal
should
fa¡¡
slightly
.
If
not,
check
for
any
visiblefaults
before
suspecting
a
faulty
brake
booster
.
Check
for
strong
vacuum
at
the
vacuum
hose
fitting
at
the
booster,
and
check
the
non-retum
valve
for
one-way
flow
.
Worn
or
contaminated
brake
pads
will
cause
poor
braking
performance
.
Oil-contaminated
or
glazed
pads
will
cause
stopping
distances
to
increase
.
Inspect
the
rotors
for
glazing,
discoloration
and
scoring
.
Steering
wheel
vibration
while
braking
at
speed
is
often
caused
by
warped
rotors,
but
can
also
be
caused
byworn
suspension
components

Cleaning
Problems
Common
cleaning
problems
with
thewipers
includestreak-
ing
or
sheeting,
waterdrops
after
wiping,
and
blade
chatter
.
Streaking
is
usually
caused
when
wiper
blades
are
coated
with
road
film
or
car
wash
wax
.
Clean
the
blades
using
soapy
water
.
If
cleaning
does
not
cure
the
problem,
the
blades
should
be
replaced
.
BMW
recommends
replacing
the
wiper
blades
twice
a
year,
before
and
after
the
cold
season

Wiper
blade
chatter
may
be
caused
by
dirty
or
worn
blades,
or
by
wiper
arms
that
areout
of
alignment
.
Clean
the
blades
and
windshield
as
described
above
.
Adjust
the
wiper
arm
so
that
there
is
even
pressure
along
the
blade,
and
so
that
the
blade
at
rest
is
perpendicular
to
the
windshield
.
If
problems
persist,
theblades
and
wiper
arms
should
be
replaced
.
The
wiper
blades
can
be
renewed
in
one
of
two
ways
:
either
by
replacing
the
complete
blade
or
by
replacing
just
therubber
insert
.
Insert
replacement
is
the
mosteconomicalmethod,
al-
though
overtime
the
wiperblade
itselfwill
become
worn

One
ruleof
thumb
wouldbe
to
replace
just
the
inserts
