Hints for the Motorist
By Albert L. Cough Rs,s, " s %ev ssss'

days, if it is run with the hood off
Ours is inclined to overhead and we
notice many trucks run without
hoods over thei rengines.
Answer: "The proof of the pud-
ding is in the eating" and the best
way to settle this question, in your
case, is to install a radiator Their
mometer and observe the tempera-
lures recorded, when running with
and without the hood, under the same
weather condition. You may find
that removing the hood increases the
cooling effect considerably, but the
influence of uncovering the engine is
quite likely to be overestimated. 1t
should be remembered that the chief
factor in cooling is the volume of air
drawn through the radiator per unit
of time and it is not clear how the re-
moval of the hood can greatly in
crease this. Under certain wind con-
diGons it might decrease it, it would
seem.

WHAT BARBARA LEARNED

Barbara is wee bit of a girl, and
recently has been attending the pri-
mary department of Sunday school,
in the teachings of which she mani
tests a deep interest. She has been
most assiduous in her efforts to MEM
orize the lines Of Scripture explain
ed to the young folks Of her age, and
in this school in particular badge
of merit for learning the Golden Text
is little metallic wrist band with a
line Of the text impressed upon the
metal.
A short while ago when asked what
she had learned that particular Sun
day, the youngster, having struggled
with the Twenty third Psalm, waved
her little arm aloft and proudly show
ing the bracelet, lisped: "The Lord
is my chauffeur. "-Pittsburg Chron-
cile-T Telegraph.

BROKEN RING CAUSES OIL
ESCAPE

A. l.. G. writes: l have never had
the slightest trouble with my engine,
so far as oily spark-plugs are con-
cerned until day or two ago, when
number five cylinder began to miss
and found it's plug very oily. Since
then it has required frequent clean
ing. What has started this trouble :?
Answer: The sudden appearance of
oil in the combustion space of a
single cylinder is fairly sure indi-
cation that piston ring has broken.
If YOU try the compression of this
cylinder, by hand cranking, and find
that it is weak and that there is a
kissing escape of gas past the piston,
you may be quite certain that there
is ring trouble. 1t will be we'll to re-
move this piston at once and have a
new ring put in, if needed, for the
sharp ends of broken ring may
scratch the cylinder BORE

Squeezing Down" The Mixture
See If 1t Will Not Run a Little

/ Leaner
! AS a matter of gasoline economy
F, the carburetor can usually be adjust
ed for leaner mixture in hot
weather than in cold, and every user
should try to run his engine upon the
closest adjustment possible. 1t is not
that an engine can. operate upon 9
less rich mixture in summer than in
winter, but the higher engine tenn
peratures, usually attainable in warm
weather, favor a more complete vap-
orization and combustion of the gaso-
line fed by the carburetor, and the
rate at which fuel is supplied by il
can thus be slightly reduced and still
produce a sufficiently rich mixture
The difference in the average TEN
perature Of the gasoline itself is also
a factor, as the rate of flow of the
liquid through the spray nozzle of the
carburetor is greater in proportion to
its temperature, thus making it pos
sible to run with a more nearly closed
needle valve in hot than in cold
weather. Moreover, the very rich
carburetor adjustments, required in
winter to reduce starting difficulties,
are not necessary in summer. In
order to readjust carburetor to Sc
cure the utmost advantage that warm
weather operation affords the engine
should first be thoroughly warmed
up and the directions for weakening
the mixture should be followed unit!
it is very slightly too lean for prac-
teal use, when the adjustments
should be altered very slightly indeed,
in the direction of richness, thus at
fording disable but economical mix
ture. 1t is well worth while to try
to squeeze down" the mixture dur
ing hot weather and it sometimes is
surprising how much Improvement in
economy can thus be made.
V. w. r. writes: The car which
l am intending to buy is offered with
two different. gear ratios, namely
4.40 and sos to /. Which will give
me the better satisfaction?
Answer: If your chief desire is
to avoid shifting to the lower gears
on hills, the 500 ratio should suit
you the better. 1t would also give
you the ability to drive very slowly
on high gear. On the contrary, if
you do not object to occasional chang
ing of gears, but do object to very
fast running engine, the 4.40 gear
might suit you better. If you wish
la very fast car this gear should be
more to your liking. In case fuel
economy is an object with you, it is
not certain which you should choose,
but it is probable that the 4.40 would
give better all around results. There
has been a tendency in fixing geai.
ratios to sacrifice everything to high
gear ability and it is questionable
whether the very low ratios afford
advantages that counterbalance their

SEVEN NEW WELLS.

Fort Worth, Texas, Aug. 23.-Sev-
en- new wells have been brought in
the present week in the Desdemona
field, increasing the production APP
proximately 5000 barrels day. One
of the best is Grice No. of the Texas
company, which is reported making
$500 barrels at 2,700 feet. The
Terry No. of the Continental also
is said to be making 1900 barrels.
The Little Giant Oil company has a
well on the Terry tract that is max
ing 20 barrels, with the drill only a
short depth in the sand. The pro-
duction probably will increase.

ing, for a time, mixture so over
rich as to fail to explode regularly
and sometimes to shortcircuit the
spark-plugs. When low gear, in
stead of high, is engaged after slow
ing down, the engine is so lightly
loaded that weak and missed explo-
slons, due to the excess of raw gaso-
line, are not noticed and the surplus
OF unvaporized fuel is soon cleared
out of the manifold and normal mix
ture conditions restored, when high
gear can be successfully engaged.
Sometimes, on the contrary, a slow
pick up is due to an over lean mix
ture and the low pulling power which
it produces.

ONE OF THE FOUR PLUGS
FOULS
"a
.2&&2z62&$||s''zS|:''

M. P. A. asks: What makes one
spark plug of my Ford get dirty so
quickly, while the others remain
clean?
Answer: If the dirt is of wet
. brown character, it is probably oil
which has passed the piston rings,
because they do not fit properly or
because the cylinder is too heavily
fabricated. Trouble of this kind is
sometimes confined to the front cyl
inder. If this is the fact in your
case, and you know the rings in this
duce the trouble by drilling a hole in
the oil supply pipe, so that part of
the oil will be delivered to number
two crank case section and not all
of it to the timing gears. In case
the dirt upon the plug is black, dry
gasoline SCOT, the cylinder which has
the dirty plug is getting too rich a
mixture, due probably to unequal
manifold action. The use of an eX-
haust heated manifold often corrects
this defect. You should, of course,
run with your carburetor adjustment
set as lean as possible.
EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION
J. H. E. Writes: My eight cylin-
der engine knocks, when running
slowly although l have just had the
carbon cleaned out. | cannot get
more than 80 miles. service from a
gallon of oil, while other owners Of
the same make of car claim to get
from 500 to 800 miles. Please give
me any suggestions you can.
Answer: This is a terrific waste
of oil. If it does not leak from the
crank case, it must pass the pistons
and go out with the exhaust, as
smoke. Your piston rings and per-
haps the pistons themselves must be
very loose indeed and there can be
hardly any compression in some OF
the cylinders, it would seem. We
should advise a change of rings in
the most leaky cylinders, at least,
and we think the manufacturer can
give you advice upon this point. Some
owners are using on each piston one
ring with beveled edges and holes
drilled through it which, in conjunc-
| ton with holes in the piston, permit
excess oil, scraped from the cylinder
walls. to be returned to the crank
case instead of passing the piston.
/, When you make all the pistons tight,
it is likely that the knocking will dis
appear If not, please write again.
