Motor Department - Lately the
front wheels Of my car have been
making a cracking noise. Some
body advised me 20 soak them In
water. which 1 did. The noise dis

The best things you can do Is to
take the wheels to a wheelwright
and have them repaired.

friends has a set of auxiliary spark
gaps on his car. They are set on

Motor Department-My tires are
beginning 20 wear through the
tread. but have not worn through
the fabric yet. Would 1t be advis-
able to use interliners instead OF
buying new tires? Do they really

else YOU can advise? P. S.
Interliners are not advisable in
new tires. since they heat up the
tube and shoe. but in your case they
may be of service. They undoubt-
