CONCERNING PISTON SLAP

j. F. ID. writes: Please give me
information regarding pistons slap
ping. Will putting in new ones stop
it?
Answer: If a piston Is consider
ably smaller than the cylinder in
which 1t operates, It at times, fails
to move smoothly up and down. In
stead of doing So it Tits back and
forth slightly in the cylinder bore,
under certain conditions and its up
per and lower edges strike the cylin-
der walls and make q slappins
sound. After long use. natural wear
between piston and cylinder brings
this condition about and. as the wear
is mostly in one place, both parts are
worn to a slightly elliptical form,
which prevents the condition from
being fully remedied by the fitting Of
a larger piston of a truly circular
section. The cylinder must be bored
or ground 10 a truly circular bore
before perfect results can be expect
ed from the fitting of new piston.

GRAPHITE IN ENGINE OIL

c. J. Il. asks: Is there any advan-
tage in adding graphite 10 cylinder
oil?
Answer: The use of a very small
quantity of the purest fake graphite,
added to engine oil. is sometimes
recommended, but it should be used
very sparingly, on account Of the
possibility that II may clog the OIL
filter or some CT the small lubricat
ing passages or reach the spark.

not be used on Ford cars according
to the manufacturer. Pure graphite
