Helpful Hints for
Automobile Owners

While regrinding valves. it is adj
visable to use light spring under the
valve head to raise the valve from the
seat: the valve should be worked up
and down in order to work the abras-
i've material on the seat. In grinding,
the valve should be rotated with a
reeiprocating motion, not turned con-
tinually in one direction, otherwise
ridges will be formed
Ones life depends upon the sta
bility of the steering mechanism. Too
great stress cannot be laid upon the
necessity for careful inspection of
these parts at frequent intervals. Be-
tween the steering control and wheels
there are numerous connections, any
one Of which. if defective, might prove
disastrous It is not an unnecessary
hardship to inspect the front wheel
bearings also at times when the gen
eral inspection is being made.
When purchasing electric light bulbs
one should note with care the type OF
lamp needed. If the voltage system is
high, the ordinary six-volt bulb will not
prove serviceable. 1t will burn out

A cause of engine noise sometimes
not suspected is the slapping of worm
pistons, which, of course. is likely to
occur only when the engine has been
run long time and the cylinders and
pistons are considerably worn. The
lateral thrust of the CO connecting rods
rocks the pistons.
