Answer-Perhaps the clutch is slip
ping. This would account for the loss
of power on hills. You can determine
this by holding the car with brakes
and then engaging clutch with motor
turning over at fair speed If clutch
is hold properly it should stall the
motor when fully engaged. 1t Is not
necessary for clutch to slip very much
to effect considerable loss of power In
climbing grades. 1t should be stopped

TO the Automobile Editor:
am the owner of a 1918 car. Every
since / bought it | am often and
greatly bothered with carbon trouble.
Two weeks ago ! had the car taken
all apart and following the advice of
mechanic ! had one new piston ring
put in each cylinder, and after being
very finely fitted were all ground in
with ground glass and oil, because it
was the contention Of my man that oil
was leaking through the rings and he
claimed / would have no more trouble.
AS a matter Of fac9 | travelled $50
miles and the cylinders are fun OF
carbon again. ] wish to state that /
had bearings taken up and, therefore,
put a whole lot of oil in crank case
and permitted the engine TO run for
about six hours while car was stand
ing stilD figuring on bearings to work
in nicely. Has this perhaps something
to do with the carboniZing? But even
before that the car always carbonized
within two or three weeks. / would
be very thankful to you if you would
enlighten me on the subject and per-
haps point out a way TO me to over
come the trouble. Evidently / have
failed so far. Thanking YOU in ad.
vance, remain. p. b.
! Answer-F'rom what you have stat
! ed. it appears that you have been
troubled with carbon in the cylinders
| from the start. This may be due TO
bad design. There are a number OF
motors which are faulty in this respect
Installing new piston rings will not
necessarily overcome the trouble in
such case. If you have been troub
/ led with motor smoking continually il
would he advisable to reduce the oil
level so that each cylinder will not
receive so much oil In "A number OF
cases troubles of this kind have beer
overcome by turning u slight recess
on each piston. approximately one.hali
inch wide and then drilling a few
holes In this recess so that the surplu:
oil working up on the pistons will re
turn to crank case and not work vi
into combustion chamber.
