POINTERS FOR OWNERS
SUGGESTIONS AS TO EFFICIENCY
OF IGNITION SYSTEM.
Minor Things the Autoist May Rem
edy, but He Should Avoid Too
Much Tamperng.

In order to realize the maximum
amount of efficiency from your igni.
tion system it IS we'll to bear in mind
the following suggestions:
Spark Plug-Leading in importance
is the proper condition of the spark
plugs, because the spark gap of tho
plug constitutes the business end of
the entire ignition system. In many
cars the spark plugs are situated
above the intake valves, and as their
points are constantly swept by the
inrGshing fresh charge, little or no
trouble should be experienced from
sooting of the plugs. Too much oil,
or oil of an inferior quality, will in
the course of time, cause SCOT to accu-
mulate and create a short circuit of
the sparkling points. However, should
this occur, you can easily remedy the
condition by thoroughly cleaning the
points. An old toothbrush and lit
tie gasoline will answer this purpose
admirably.
Spark Plug Adjustment-Be sure
that you have the spark gap ex-
actly right. Under light load If the
motor misses, widen the spark gap;
and reverse this action, bringing the
points nearer each other, should the
motor miss under a heavy load, and
running at low speed.
Should your ignition system fail to
perform its proper duties. this condi-
tion may have been caused by a
broken wire, or, by wearing off of the
insulation. The easiest manner to
discover a short circuit is to start
your motor in very dark place. A
blue flicker will show you the location
of the short circuit
Magneto-Do not tamper with the
magnetic trying to locate real or imag-
mary troubles. Unless absolutely nee
essary, it should not be disconnected.
Should you take off the wires lead
ing from the magnetic to the cylinders
be sure to get them back in their
right places.
Do not pull out the carbon brushes
in the distributor because you think
there is not enough tension on the
small brass springs.
Try to keep your garage as free
from dampness as possible, because
dampness causes the magnetic to
sweat, which is very detrimental to
the efficiency Of your ignition sys-
TEN.
Again, don't take the magnetic
apart. Should anything go wrong,
consult an expert, or send it to the
makers.
