MOTORIST PROBLEM SOLVED
FOR NEWS-TIMES READERS
By VIM H STEWART, JR
Rressaess stswars A.sosuobns School Of New Yor4.

Times:-Is there any quick way TO
tell whether ignition or corburetor
trouble has stopped your engine
When Il stalls l never know how to
begin, but keep experimenting until
I get her started. Sometimes don't
know myself what makes her start.
b. A
Prime cylinders through com
preston cocks and crank engine. II
IL starts and stops, carburetiOn trou-
bic Is shown. II it refuses to run. il
indicates ignition trouble.
Motor Department, The News
Times have a Studebaker. 1917.
Please inform me il this motor can
be run on dry cells. If it can, how
must il be wired? If the motor is
run on dry cells. can the lights be
run of the engine without the use of
the storage? If they can, how must
they be wired? Thanking you for
your information. 1 remain, +. E.
To use dry cells for ignition, con-
meet five dry cells IN series positive
OF one cell 10 negative Of next and
wire one end OF set 10 switch and
the other to ground on some part OF
engine frame. II is not advisa bic
10 run lights without battery, as they
will fluctuate with the speed OF the
engine and go out when the engine
stops. Try IL by connecting the
two battery wires together without
the battery.
Motor Department, The News
Times:-I have a 1915 Saxon Six
which has lately developed a click
ing sound in one OF the cylinders.
Also has a peculiar putting sound
when running fast; sounds like the
putting OF a locomotive. Could this
be caused from the carburetor? Or
are the valves out of time? Just
cleaned the carbon out of cylinders
and GROUND the valves last week.
Motor also backfires through th>
carburetor when opening throttle
quickly. Changing adjustment
doesn't seem to remedy. Am using
a Rayfield carburetor. Should there
be a float in the air chamber, or is II
simply bushing for the valve stem?
I had my carburetor apart last week
and noticed what appeared TO be a
float In the air chamber. but II was
immovable. and as I am not ia
miliar with a RRyfleld carburetcr do
not know whether II should be sta
tiOnary or not. Any information
will be gratefully received. r. s.
You seem to have two troubles. a
leaky inlet valve and a sticking
auxiliary air valve in the carburetor
Test compression by eranking the.
engine slowly by hand and noting
IL there is good resistance In each
cylinder, Also look at valve filters.
You should be able to slip a thin
card between them and valve stems.
The part you mention in the plunger
is the dash pot which should be
free TO move. II prevents the air
valve from opening too suddenly.

HELPFUL HINTS.

Locating a missing cylinder Is
an art which every driver must
learn. The screw driver method
is the best Run engine throt-
tie down and short circuit each
plug I'm turn by resting end of
screw driver on cylinder and
leaning side of blade against
head OF plug If engine slows
down that is live cylinder. II
IL does not affect the running of
the engine it is q dead cylinder
This test works best on a four
cylinder engine.
Where pet cocks are provided
they may be used. Open one at
a time and look for flame. II
no flame is seen open throttle
and speed up a little The cylin-
der may be missing at low throt-
tie If no flame Is seen with
throttle opened the cylinder is
missing.
On a Ford car we hold down
three vibratOrs and see II the
engine stops By holding down
the yibrators We kill ignition in
the corresponding cylinders. If
the engine runs the remaining
cylinder is firing. II II stops the
remaining cylinder Is not firing.
open the throttle slightly for this
lest. as the engine will stall too
readily on closed throttle.
Some drivers prefer to hold
down one vibrator at a time, not
ing the effect on the engine. II
the engine slows down It is a
live cylinder. If no effect Is pro-
duced II Is a dead cylinder. This
is the same reasoning as we use
when short circuiting the plugs
with a screw driver.
on six. eight and twelve eylin-
der engines the pet cock method
is the only satisfactory method
II the engine is not provided with
pet cocks we remove the spark
plug wires from one side on the
engine. grounding them very
carefully so as not 10 puncture
the secondary winding of the
coil. We then run the engine
on the remaining cylinders and
test with the screw driver. II
no miss IS discovered we run the
other side OF the engine and
test that side. BY this means
very satisfactory test made be
made.

OUT OF DATE TO LAY UP
CAR ON FIRST COLD DAY

1t is getting TO be out Of date 10
lay up the car whenever the first
cold day comes, since the use Of au-
tomobiles has become so much a
part OF every day living Yet cold
weather, every mOtorist knows, has
a great influence on the way gaso-
line acts, especially when the variety
of fuel available today is compared
with that obtainable only a few
years ago.
Gasoline Is the starting point in
motor car operation. and when the
quality drops. efficiency has TO be
made up from another source. In
discussing this requirement, Ralph
Murphy, engineer of the Franklin
Automobile company, mentions that
the adaptation Of present-day gaso-
line has called for lsome OF the most

South America Has
Opportunities For
i. S. Manufactures

Having sailed the seven seas"
almost continuously since 1914.
without sign or sight OF Hun raider
or submarine, z. G. Willems, Dodge
Bros.'s travelling representative, has
just reached Detroit from South
America. Mr.. Willems brings word
that the greatest obstacles to world
business today are lack Of freight
facilities and gasoline, and total or
partial embargoes in all parts Of the
world. He predicts a vast enlarge
ment of American world business
after the war, but in the face Of
keen and highly organized compe-
tition from several quarters.
He says that American business
has made considerable progress in
South America during the period
OF the war, and that the esta blish-
ment OF branch banks has done a
great deal TO promote North Amer
lean interests in the nations TO the
south OF us. AS he sees the situation,
manufacturers in the United States
have now the best opportunity in
their existence to take legitimate
advantage OF the South American
needs.
North American business men
should understand" Mr.. Willems
says, that the representative they
send to South American business
houses should be equipped with
good working knowledge and COM
mand OF Spanish. A French scholar
Is at an advantage in South Amer
lea. because nearly everybody of the !.
class also speaks French.
Representatives should have a clear
conception OF the Latin tempera-
ment, and defer TO Latin customs as
far as necessary"
Since 1914 Mr.. Willems has visit |

In July. 1917, Mr. Willems sailed |
on a troopship from New York for I
London. arriving there with one Of |
the very first coutingents OF Yanks |
who set foot on British soil. Among |
them was Kermit Roosevelt. who
later served with the British In
and Is now in the |
army. Mr.. willems intend
ed to return TO the United States /
from Spain early this year. but was I
unable to do so because OF the can I

United States. and went to South /
America instead, returning from
there.

It gives the patient a good nights rest, free from coughing, with easy expec- toration in the morning, gives nature a chance to soothe the infiamed parts, throw off the disease, helping the pa- tient to regain his health.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There Is only one way to cure Catarrhal Deafness, and that is by constitutional remedy. HALLS CATARRH MEDICINE acts through the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces of the System. Catarrhal Deafness Is caused by an unframed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inffamed you have rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result. Unless the inflammation can be re- duced and this tube restored to its nor nal condition, hearing may be destroyed forever Many cases of Deafness are caused by Catarrh, which is an infiamed condition of the Mucous Surfaces.
 ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS for any case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot be cured by HALLS CATARRR MEDICINE.
