BILE.
If the rod Is very loose the knocks can
be located by turning the engine with
TIE crank. This trouble is caused by a
tw,stei rod, loose bearing, scored
bearing, burned-out bearing, or side
play. With a seized or burned-out
bearing the motor will groan or stick
In starting.
The main-bearing knocks are readily
located by running two cylinders at a
time, one on each side of the crank
bearing. A. hard bump will be notice
able throughout the motor, produced
regularly with the firing of the two
cylinders. Such knocks are caused by
end play in the shaft, loosely fitting
bearings, or scored or burned-out
bearing. In the latter two instances
the motor will groan upon starting
cold.
A loose piston-pin is distinguished
by sharp metallic knock. 1t can be
located by using the listening rod for
each cylinder and speeding up the
motor, then closing the throttle sud-
denly. By doing so double knock
will be noticeable, which is very sharp
and better termed rap. TIL knocks
are caused by crooked or broken pin
or by tight or badly worn member.
A loose flywheel will produce very
heavy knock at low engine speed, and
will appear regularly. The knock will
change its nature entirely when the
motor is speeded up. and the vibration
of the shaft will produce a dull, chat

One of the most delicate problems

Is that Of distinguishing between and
locating various engine knocks. While
there are numerous listening devices

the best teacher, and will enable you
to repair 1t before 1t develops into
serious trouble. A few of the mysteri-
GUS knocks are described below.
The more experience one has in lis
tening to knocks, the more expert will
one become in finding them and telling
what is loose. Each faulty motor part
has different knock. which comes al
ways in regular periods relatively to
the speed of the engine,

A loose connecting-rod produces a
sharp bump or a very heavy hollow
sound. 1t is easy to locate the faulty
connectlng-rod by running but one
cylinder at time, in which case two
bumps are usually noticeable, due to
the relief Of the explosion pressure.

weekly and monthly produc-
ton is at the highest point in
it's history.
The most casual sort of in
quiry will satisfy you that this
production is being absorbed
as it is delivered.
Within sight and sound as we
write, great addition to
Dod ge Brothers immense
works, is being rushed to COM
pletion.
The interesting thing about
this situation is, that it is not
likely that half hundred peO-
pie have ever bought Dodge
Brothers Motor Car just be-
cause they wanted a motor car
Of the more than half a mil
lion who have bought 1.-THE
overwhelming majority did SO
because of the name it bore.
1t has always been treated, by
the American people in parti-
cular, as an exception - al
ways set apart, and singled
out, and never judged by n
dinary standards.
1t has always been thought Of,
and is still thought Of, first,
and foremost, and all the time
only in terms Of it's goodness,
and the results it gives.
All of this is wonderful, in one
way, and quite natural and
logical in another.
1t all dates back to the day
when John and Horace Dodge
conceived and designed and
finally built the car-after
warning each other, and their
associates, not even to think
Of it in any other terms than
the best obtainable value.
They began with a few almost
absurdly simple principles,
bluntly expressed and rigidly
executed, about decency and
honor and integrity-such as
most of us wrote in our copy
books at school.

Good VIII Triumphant Under Test

They reduced these old copy
book maxims to a splendid
and scientific system, pouring
more and more and still more
value into the car, and then
marshalling all the resources
of modern massed manufac-
ture to get their product into
the hands of the people at an
honorable and an honest cost.
These policies and principles
have never been changed, and
never will be changed, by so
much as a hairs breadth; and
they have come to be recog-
nized and accepted as Dodge
Brothers principles wherever
motor cars are driven.
1t has all happened as John
and Horace Dodge planned 1t
quite simply, naturally, and
automatically all over Ameri-
ca and all over the world.
People do discriminate, as
Dodge Brothers contended
they would; people will find
ont when q motor car is we'll

and great good value.

is where they planned to To-
cate and establish tin the

1t will last, and it will keep
on growing as it has kept on
growing for five years (fas-
ter than Dod e. e Brothers
works could keep pace With
it,, as long as the number of
those who believe that a man
ufacturer should build to
serve and not merely to sell,
continues to increase.
All is we'll with Dodge Broth
