Sparkplug Trouble

Two common causes of spark
plug trouble are oil or particles OF
carbon collecting between the points
and sooting of the porcelain. The
first may be remedied by carefully
removing the oil or carbon and thus
clearing the gap. If the catbon on
the porcelain is hard, do not attempt
to scrape it off. Soak the porcelain
in kerosene or liquid carbon remover
until the carbon is soft enough to
wipe off clcanly with cloth.
Points out of adjustment or
burned away will also cause miss
ing. The points should be adjusted
to a gap of from 1-32d to 1-64th of
an inch, depending upon the igni-
ton system, carbureter adjustment
and design of motor. ~
