I am anxious to know if such could De
the case.-Owner.
The trouble you speak of very often
happens when the car IS washed by
careless men. The hood on the side OF
the engine is usually slotted and some
times the washer Will let the water
force itself through these points When
going arOnud the car with the nose.
A small amount of water in the mag
neto will cause a short circuit and give
considerable trouble. As soon as TINS
dries out, however, the trouble dlsap-
pears. This usually happens after a
motor has been run for a while and be-
comes heated. The water then evapor-
ates and the short circuit disappears.

Have a storage battery upon which
there is no makers name. When first
charged it is good. but will exhaust
itself in a couple of days. Have filled
it with Sulphuric acid, but this does
not help. I have had the battery two
years.-R Lyons.
When battery has been idle for
long time the voltage, when charging,
will rise rapidly, and likewise when In
use will fall rapidly. This may be due
to a number of causes, chief among
which is over sulphatiOn of the plates
Sometimes a good Overcharge will re-
duce the sulphate on the surfaces OF
the plates and increase the capacity
considerably. If the plates are not
sulphated, it is possible that some of
the active material has fallen off the
grids and deposited at the bottom OF
the cell. In such cases the plates
should be removed and the battery
thoroughly cleaned Undoubtedly the
battery has been neglected and the
lyte. II the plates are not kept covered
the capacity of the battery is cOnsid-
erably reduced. After this has been
allowed to take place for some time
it is not possible to bring the battery
back into condition by a single charge
Several charges will be necessary.
Would suggest that the battery be
placed in the hands of an experienced
repair man for a thorough overhauInE.

be advisable for you to attempt TO

FIVE DEGREES ABOVE

Lowest Temperature at Which Ordin-
airy Gasoline FapOrizes in Cold
Storage-HOt Rag VIII Help.

StOrage-HOt Rag VIII Help.
Motorists living in the northern and
central states are looking forward with
some anxiety to the advent OF cold
weather and its effect on the manner
in which the present grades of gasoline
viii vapOrize when the crank is ap-
piled to a cold motor
Some up to date information on cold
weather starting has been developed
during the past summer, by expert
ments made in cold storage. These
experiments were based on the ordin-
airy commercial grade Of gasoline, and,
while some allowance must neces-
saruy be made for the dead air incl
dent TO refrigeration, the tests viii,
II IS believed, come close to the actual
condition which VIII prevail this win
ter
1t was aseertained that the lowest
temperature at which gasoline would
Faporlze from a piece Of waste, soaked
IN me mud and dropped on the floor,
was five degrees above zero. Below
this temp erature the gasoline in the
carburetor refused to vaporize. Ma
turally, no explosion could be secured
from the motor
For the advantage of the motorist
who occasionally finds himself in q
temperature around zero, several tests
were made, the gasoline readily res
pOnQlng TO any external application OF
warmth The most effective, as well
as the most simple plan was to place
a rag, soaked in hot water, over the
intake The car had been left over
night IN the cold storage apartment,
with the temperature at twelve below
zero. In the morning the rag was ap-
piled and the motor started promptly
on the first turn Of the cranking APP
paratus.
This test also calls attention to the
fact that by improved carburetion,
supplemented by starting systems, en-
gineers have fully kept pace with the
steadily lowering grades OF gasoline,
generally on sale. The motorists OF
former times, even with his advantage
OF high-test gasoline, found winter
starting more or less trouble. On the
other hand, the modern improvements
have reduced cold weather to abso-
Lutte simplicity, despite the vastly
lower vaporizing point of the fuel

1.-TWO months ago I put my car up for
the winter Since then the gasoline
which had been left has eTapOrated.
When new gasoline was put in tried
to start the motor. First, I poured
gasoline in the petcOcks to start it. It
did start, but in a few minutes it sput-
tered and died out. I repeated this
till L became Disguised. Then I discOn-
nected pipe leading from exhaust to
carburetOr through which the warm oil
was admitted to it and held my hand
over the hole. This did not help. Next
I poured boiling water in radiator and
started the motor again, but again 1t
died A chauffeur maneuVered the air
valve over carburetor up and down, and
kept the motor going, but of course L
could not do this and drive the car.
A mechanic told me later that the con-
tact points in magnetic did not meet
all the time. Could this be possible
after it was kept going by moving the
air valVe?-F McAlpine.
It is evident that your trouble was
due to a poor mixture. If the contact
points in the magnetic did not make
and break regularly this would be in
Dictated by irregular firing. You state
that when the carburetor air valve was
adjusted properly the motor ran well.
This is plain evidence that the trouble
was in the carburetor. Not knowing
the particular make of carburetor you
are using 1t is not possible to outline
the adjustments 1t should not be
difficult matter, however, to adjust the
carburetOr. You state that when the
cylinders Weres prlmed the motor ran
well until this gas supply was ex-
hausted. This plainly indicates that
the magnetic was all right and reverts
the trouble to the carburetor. Very
often, however, such troubles are
caused by combination Of poor 1gnl-
ton and poor carburetion-
