studs. Then scrape the cylinder head
itself. In returning the ga4ket to
position see that there are no dents or
kinks in it. Spread some cup grease
over both sides Of the gasket and re-
turn to position. Do not use shellac.
It does not afford a good seat for the
head and it makes it necessary to dis
card the gasket, after being used once.
The common method Of getting quick
results in carbon removal is to have
the carbon burned out by means Of
oxygen. This method is done at a
station equipped for the work. The
charge 10 usually 80 cents a cylinder.
This method is recommended where
quick job is wanted or where the
cylinder head is not detachable and
the owner doesn't wish to 60 to the
expense of having the cylinders rem0v-
ed. This method is fairly satisfactory
but, Of course, mot as thorough, as
removed by scraping.
The use of compounds is not recon-
mended Unless you are sure the COM
pound will not dilute or injure the
lubricating Oil in the crankcase, for
when you pour compound into the
cylinders it is bound to get to the
crankcase. As general rule the oxy-
gen method is to be preferred to this.
There are various tables, and devices
designed to remove carbon, some manu-
facturers Of these even going SO far
as to make the ridiculous statement
that the carbon will be dissolved. When
removal of carbon by the scraping and
oxygen methods is SO cheap compare
lively, / cannot see any use for these
other methods Of doubtful value.
