Ralph De Palma's
Service Department

Ralph De Palma. I have a bet that
the motor in your record breaking Pack
ard car is not an ordinary racing motor
at all but an airplane engine dropped
into racing chassis. Do 1 win wal
You win. The engine Is a 12-cylinder
afrplane engine or 299 cubic inches dis
placement and the first multi-cylinder
TO be used In racing competition.
Ralph De Palma have a 1916 model
which Is equipped with an engine
driven tire pump, which gives me so
much trouble that half the time | am
forced to use my hand pump. Is there
any type of power pump which will give
consistent scrvices-Al j.
Many engine driven pumps give en-
tire satisfaction. Your car happens to
be equipped with a poor pump, which
has been changed on this years model.
| am mailing you list of reliable power
pumps that may be installed ON your
car without radical alteration. How
ever, always carry your hand pump in
the tool box for emergency use.
Ralph De Palma: I have been advised
to fit my Ford with a device that in
Jects steam into the cylinders. Do you
think that this will pay me? The claims
iA""c ioi tHc ueNlce seem 10 me TO %
excessive.--J. ~.
Most OF tho devices you mention have
value in preventing the deposit of car
bon and some of them go so far as to
remove the troublesome particles in the
combustion chamber 1t will pay you
to install one. and list of makers is
being sent by mail.
Ralph De Palma: l have had almost
endless trouble with the gear shifter
lever of my racing model -, which
persists in jumping out of gear when
ever l accelerate. Can you tell me what
the trouble is and how to remedy it,
Novice.
If the trouble has existed for some
time it is likely that the shifting gears
have worn ridge in the others so that
even the use of a new or stretched
piunger spring will not remedy the
trouble. In this case you may have to

mesh the gears further so that the
teeth ends pass the ridge.
Ralph DE Palma: / have a home made
speedster, which / have used at local
meets and | have managed to get bet
ter speed out of the old boat than you
might think possible but my tire wear
has been appalling. l use ordinary
fabric clinchers. Is there any way
can cut down on this Lawrence.
Yes. Try cord tires with ribbed treads
Your clilcher rims will do all right
but they should have at least thirteen
Tugs. Safety first
Ralph De Palma: 1 have been using
an alconoi ano giycerine antifreeze So
luton in my radiator, but the stuff
evaporates so quickly that it is costing
me altogether too much. Can you ad-
wise me of something better to use2-
Jake d.
The names Of certain patent anti
freeze compounds now on the market
are being forwarded to you by mail Tht
compounds have the virtue of not evap.
Grating and they are without i'll effects
on the metal of the cooling system.
Ralph De Palma: Do you suppose that
welded steel cylinders ever will be
used in standard passenger cars? Did
your record breaking Packard have
steel cylinders?
There viii have to be a marked
reduction in cost to moke welded steel
cylinders attractive enough for the av-
erage automobile maker. / think in
time this feature will come. My rec
ord breaking car did not have welded
steel cylinders, but the larger car
which RAIDER drove used such cylin-
ders.
Ralph De Palma: I am having trouble
with leaking plugs. A friend has ad-
vised me to give them a coating Of
white lead around the threads. 1 am
afraid if / do that | will never get
the plugs out of the cylinders again,
r. C. j.
Try giving the plugs thin coating
of stove backing of the paste sort,
but don't overdo it, or the paste may
get 1%own into the cylinders and make
trouble. Use a good plug gasket.
Ralph De Palma: Is there any OBJ
lection to calcium chloride as on anti
solution? I am using it, but
| have been Informed that it will ruin
my cooling system. BLAKEWELL.
Calcium chloride has a corrosive ac-
ton on certain metals with which it
comes in contact. which is none the
less real because It is slow l would
advise you to drain out the calcium
chloride solution and substitute either

The first cargo of Egyptian cotton to
arrive in this country from Egypt since
last January has just been received at
the port of Boston, and consisted of 5000
bales. On account of its long fiber this
kind of cotton is particularly sought for
the manufacture of tires, especially cord
tires. which are now coming into such
extensive use. The difficulty experienced
in obtaining cotton from Egypt, since
the beginning of the war, was one of the
reasons for the establishment Of large
