Ny car smokes badly and has used
one gallon Of oil in 100 miles. It has a
splash fabrication system. What 10 the
trouble, and how can I remedy it?
When a splash system smokes the
trouble can generally be put down to
either too high a level In the splash
trough, too deep dipping of the con-
Meeting rods or bad piston rings. The
first two amount to practically the
same thing, because II the level Of the
oil Is too high the connecting rod is
sure to dip too deeply into the oil, and
hence the effect is to splash too much
oil to the cylinders. When the piston
rings are faulty the oil leaks past the
rings. and after it reaches the COM
bustion space is burned in large guam
titles. thereby causing the smoking
and sooting. The proper course for
you to pursue IS first to determine the
proper level in the crank case.
The trouble with your oiling system
might be in the leakage Of air, in the
vacuum tank which controls the sup.

into the cap at the top the oil will flow
out OF the tank into the crank case.
and the result will be such as you
mention. Therefore see that the filler
cap on top of the reservoir Is abso,
lutely alright. If you will do this and
also see that the oil level is not above
the plug in the bottom your system
will work all right.

Have the different makes Of r1aanetos
different material for breaker points
than platinum, and, il so, what is i'll
Are there different grades of platinum
points?
The so called platinum points FOR
magnetos vary greatly in composition
and hardness. Different compositions
and percentages of iridium are used in
the compositions, the average being
somewhere about Is per cent iridium
or less. In some of the very cheap
grades no platinum at all is used, nickel
being substituted. These points do not
stand up for any length of time.
Where platinum is used the only diff
ference in actual grade Is in the varia-
ton Of the percentages of alloying sub
stances used and also in the thickness
of the points. In some cases the plat.
nun is very thin.

My plate clutch slips. Tried washing
it with kerosene, but with no results.
Also had the crank case taken off, but
see no nuts to take up on. Have tried
both kinds Of oil, but have met with no
success. What is tho cause?
Probably the clutch Is being held dis
engaged by the sticking Of the pedal
shaft In its bearing or other members
of the operation mechanism are stick.
ing due to lack of fabrication. thus not
allowing the clutch to become fully ell
gagged when the pressure is removed
from the clutch pedal. If the mocha
uism Is found to be In good shape the
next cause would be insufficient pres
sure exerted on the plates. This might
be caused by weak clutch springs or
springs that have taken a permanent
set after few thousand miles of serv-
Ice
Automobile manufacturers can test
springs for their tension. and, while
great care is exercised in the strength
of the steel wire which goes into them
and the heat treatment of the same
nevertheless occasionally springs will
pass by inspector. no matter how rigid
that have not been carefully heat
treated, and after some little service
they will take a permanent set and
fail to exert sufficient pressure on the
plate to transmit the power.
The third and most likely cause Is
dirty and gummed plates due to neg
lecting to change the lubricating oil In
the motor. .,- ....... ~,.. .4.. -.:-.

Cantilever springs give easy riding
owing to their ability to check the re

many cars gives very easy riding, and
II cannot be stated that the cantilever

upon the load carried and upon the de.

hetweeh sprung and inspiring weight

How can the weight over tho front
and rear aNles be aseertained?
Drive the car over four scales so
that each wheel rests upon one of
them. The readings of the scales I'M
der the front wheels will give you the
weight ON the wheels, ard the rear
scale readings the rear weight. Thus
If the front scales showed 400 pounds
each the total over the wheels would
be 800. By deducting the weight Of
the axles and wheels you have the
weight over the axles.

In strainins gasoline have had trou :

ton against III
Most gasoline contains lint In consid-
cradle quantity. This lint is derived
from the cotton strainers through
which the fluid Is passed In its process
Of manufacture. and traps will not
catch 1t. 1t must be caught by fine
screens or by chamois strainers. These
screens in time clog and refuse to pass
the fluid. On metal screens the layer
of lint can be easily seen and lifted off.
An exceedingly practical protection is
large tubular screen soldered to the
tank outlet cock and sticking up into
the tank. The flow into the carburetor
being much slower than the movement
of the contents of the tank under the
motion Of the vehicle permits the lint
to be washed off the screen instead Of

What is the cause Of about half a

The leaking is probably due to the

exhaust sleeve or drum around the ex

Your motor carbonizes much too
quickly, but 1t is not due to the quality
Of the oil. Possibly you are using too

be, also, that your pistons or rings are

way into the combustion chamber. or
the oil level may be too high, or with
