The Motor Dealer and Service
ARTICLE NO..
"KNOCKS"
BY L. H. HAGERLING

Often times when taking a small
incline or on an exceptionally hard
pull. the motorist hears small
knocks coming from his engine. To
the careful motorist this is a warn
ing that something is going wrong
in the vital part of his car, some
thing that needs attention immedi-
ately. Others who are more or less
careless about their motor pass it
up as one of the inevitable things"
that are but daily occurrences about
the car he is running.
There is a reason for every knock
and noise in your motor. 1t may be
isfrom one of several reasons that
these knocks are heard on hard
pulls, but the most common reason
is carbon on the piston head. There
is a certain amount of space neces-
sary in a cylinder for the proper ex-
plosion of the gas. Under ordinary
circumstances the explosion will take
place without knocking but under a
strain when everything is working
hard in unison there must be that
certain amount of clearance or there
will be a knock. This is what is
commonly known as a gasoline
knock and is remedied by cleaning
out the carbon.
Other reasons for knocks in the
motor are loose bearing, loose pis-
ton rings, loost rist pins, loose cam
shaft, loose main bearings and many
other things that come loose and
knock with the turning over of the
motor. And they are hard to dis
tinguish 1t takes an experienced
mechanic to tell just what is that is
Knocking. Whefh her 1T he hna rinpc or

a gas knock and this is why the
careful motorist takes the hint when
he hears q knock and has it looked
into at once. Many a time could a
bearing be saved or a connecting rod
kept from going through the crank
case IL only that little knock would
have been looked after. And many
a large bill for repairs is saved by
getting after that little knock when
1t is firts heard.
And this is where the motor deal
er service comes in. The dealer who
is conscientious and conducting his
business on a service basis is al
ways glad to give any information
whatever that will mean better re-
suits from your motor. II knock
develops in your wotor when 1t is
still under the guarantee, the dealer
will gladly tighten up the bearing or
If the motor is older and out of guar
antee, it means but a small outlay of
money to have the knock looked
after.
1t is the small details that once
neglected in a motor cause it to loose
power, to lack pep, to slow down
and to cause many other inconven-
fences. The many troubles in start
ing motor can be traced to the
small thing that started trouble. 1t
is the little things that once looked
after and given the necessary atten-
ton that make you feel that you
have really gotten your moneys
worth out of the car you have pur-
chased and that it is the best little
old car on the market. 1t is mainly
up to the driver of a car just what
1t will do for him and it is my recon-
mendation that no matter what kind
or car you may own, 1t is to your
advantage to give attention to the
little knocks that develop and In
doing that you will lay at rest the
big knocks that are sure to de-
Nelop later in more Ways than one.
