eye.
Leakage may, and very often does
occur at the valve caps (C). Oil
poured around them will also indicate
whether there is leakage at this place.
When the valve caps are replaced
after grinding the valves, new gaskets
should always be used. Smearing a

shellac is liable to make the unscrew-

is at CD, the valve. There are a
number Of things which might be the
cause of leakage here: Namely. the
valves may have become burned, Oh

may have broken or the adjusting

LESSON NO. II.

INC Locating OF lTOuDlS.
Many owners of automobiles do not
derive the full pleasure from their
cars. because of fear to take long
trips lest something should go wrong
and they should be unable to deter
mine what the trouble is. While the
automobile of today is so nearly
perfect machine, as to seldom give
trouble on the road, nevertheless the
man who feels that, If something did
go wrong, he could locate the trouble
and repair it, needs must get more
pleasure from driving his car than the
man who feels that he would be help
less.
The locating Of trouble in the au-
tomobile engine is not nearly as diff
cult as many believe 1t to be. The
man who knows the why and where
fore of the various parts; who thinks,
and who will go about matters sys-
tematically, will find that he can al
most instantly tell what made his
engine stop, or what Is causing it to
miss
There are two kinds of trouble
hunters; one will take hold of a wire !;
replace a spark plug; turn a screw on
the carbureter, exhaust himself or his
battery cranking the engine, swear a
little, and then send for a wiser man,
while the other, when the engine
stops, will sit still while, and, as the
physician asks questions of his pa
tient when diagnosing case, will
talk to himself, as: Have / gaso-
line?" is my battery charged" She

stopped with a popping in the carbu-
reter," etc, the result being that he
will often instantly perhaps without
getting of of his car. know what the
trouble is, or, falling to get clue
from reasoning, will go about the
hunting systematically.
To help you be the latter type of
trouble-hunter, | am going to tell
You of all the things which might go
wrong; the reason therefor; show you
how by process of reasoning you
can eliminate certain of these things
as not the one which has caused your
trouble, thus limiting the things you
must look for to a few, and the steps
to take to further eliminate the posi-
BILE causes of the trouble until the
right one tor, rather, wrong one) is
found
In a previous lesson l told you that
there were three things essential for
the proper running of the engine;
namely. proper compression, proper
mixture and proper ignition.
Let us take these three ESSENTIALS up
one after the other and see how and
why they fail.
Compression Leakage.
The illustration shows the various
places through which the compressed
gas might escape. The spark plug
may leak at ca, the nut which holds
the porcelain into the metal part; this
leakage generally being accompanied
by kissing sound. The remedy for
this is to tighten this nut, and this
falling to remedy the trouble, it would
probably be wise to replace the plug.
There may be leakage between the
plug and the cylinder or valve cap, at
the place where the plug is screwed
in. as B. The remedy is to screw the
plug in farther, or it may be neces-
sary TO put a new gasket chat is a
packing washer) under it. Leakage
here may be discovered by pouring a
little oil around the plug. If the oil
bubbles there is leakage, and the
amount Of leakage can be judged by
the degree of bubbling. When re-
placing a spark plug it is good prac-
tice to make a paste of some fake
graphite and linseed oil Tor if you
have no linseed oil, cylinder OLD, and
to smear this on the threads of the
Mug. This will not only help to make
the plug tight, but will prevent the
Mug and the metal of the cylinder
from fusing together, due TO the heat,
so that the plug cannot be taken out
again.
The compression cocks may also
leak. This may be at the threads, as
with the spark plug, at the valve;
or the stem may be broken, especially
if it be one of the long stem type. The
test for leakage is the oil as given for
the plug. / might say that the stems
of the compression cocks do often
break. and cause great leakage, and

means that you are not getting all OF
the power out of your fuel.
The next place where leakage is liza
BILE to occur Is at (E) the piston rings.
This may be due to a broken ring,
worn rings, the rings sticking because
of carbon or gummed oil getting be-
tween them and their grooves. a
scored-that is, Observation-Disclosures,
due to the engine becoming over
heated for lack of oil or water, or to
the slots of the rings getting in line.
When the pistons are put into the cyl
inders care must be taken to have the
slots of the rings getting in line.
When the pfstons are put into the
cylinders care must be taken to have
the slots in the rings spaced equal dis
tances apart Where the rings are
broken or worn they must be replaced
1t is a good practice to pour about a
half a cupful of kerosene into each
cylinder about once a week, and it is
best to do this while the engine Is
warm after completing run. This
will tend to prevent the rings from
sticking in the grooves. If the cylin
ders have been scored you will have
to have them rebored and new ring:
ond pistons fitted.
| A bad leak at the piston ring will
general indicate itself by kissing
sound in the engine when climbing {
hill
You can tell whether or not you
engine has lost compression by crank
ing 1t slowly and noticing how mucl
you must pull on the crank handle
! To tell if there is loss of compression
in one cylinder open all the compress
sion cocks but one and feel the com
preston in the cylinder having thu
closed compression cock.
i Please notice that there is no on
place through which the compression
can leak from all four cylinders, tn
/ places of leakage being separate TO
| each cylinder. For this reason shoult
your engine be running well and thel
suddenly stop, you Instantly can elm
mate loss of compression as posi-
BILE cause. When, however, tn
trouble is one of missing, lack of pow
er and sometimes failure to start, tn
cause may be the loss of compression

FOES OF HORSE THIEF
WILL PROTECT AUTOS

The Wayne County Horse Thief and
Protective association added about
200 members at it's special meeting
held at Webster Friday night, two
months before the regular yearly
meeting in September. Another meet
ing will be held at the same town
Friday evening, June 20.
About 1000 men from all over the
county were present. The meeting
decided to protect members from the
theft of all property instead of horses
only, and will take special steps
when automobiles are stolen.
All members are notified following
a theft, and a search is made. If the
stolen property cannot be recovered,
the member who loses it is paid two
thirds of it's value by the organization.
Yearly dues of $1.00 and an entrance
fee of $2.75 are charged. Members
must search for thieves and appear
in court against them.
officers of the association are ::
Arthur Palmer, president; Walter
Beeson, secretary, and Clarence Pal
mer, captain.
