Keep Watch on Gaskets

II is so easy to lose part of the com
preston In one cylinder through poor
spark plug contact that particular
pains should be taken to make a tight
Joint when one of the plugs has been
removed. Many modern plugs are de-
signed to screw in easily, reliance being
placed entirely on the gasket below
the shoulder for securing the desired
gas-tight joint. For this reason tho
condition of the gaskct should be care

Incidentally il good plugs are used
there should seldom be need for remov-

The tariff board, created as a result
