Dear Barney Oldfield: l have a
new car and / would like to know what
| can do to preserve the body during
the winter. Also, please tell me what
to do with the engine.-W. NJ.
All you can do to the body is to
keep it clean, apply a liquid polish and
avoid taking the car from a very warm
garage right out into the cold. It is
violent changes in temperatures that
body oil in the winter if you use light
or medium. If you use heavy for sum
mer, use medium for winter.
Dear Barney Oldfield: I never
heard anything like a valve tap or a
piston slap till l had my car over
hauled about seven weeks ago. The
garage man put n new middle ring
in each piston and a new connecting
rod on the second piston. There was
4 tapping in that cylinder. / sent it
back to the garage twice. They
thought it was a valve tap. The
water would boil after going a mile or
two. / filled it with oil. The sec
ond bearing burnt out. i had a new
connecting rod put in. 1t seemed to
have plenty of oil. Again l took the
car to the man who fixed it first and
he found that the oil line was stopped
up. The ian vas new and i saw
then it did not u only at intervals.
| adjusted it so it runs and the fan
belt is tight. | advanced the spark,
but it still gets hot.
| am going to look at one old hose
connection and see if it is clear so the
water circulates and am going to take
the head off and see if / have a piston
slap. If l find everything tight could
you tell me what else might make the
water boil and what that tapping noise
may bell. s. S.
The tapping may be a valve that
strikes its seat too hard. After valve
grinding a valve may slap for Il while
+, until it seats perfectly. There may~he
side play in a valve or a tappet may
be badly worn. | hardly think it is a
piston slap unless your first repairman
did a bad job and did not align the
connecting rods and p~istons. thus
causing a severe side thrust and wear
ing down a wrist pin rapidly. The
loose wrist pin also would cause 4
knock.
The boiling may be caused by ex-
cessive friction, due to very tight
bearings, though | would suggest
simpler causes such as ignition set too
late, a very rich mixture in combina-
ton with a slightly clogged radiator.

tunity to ask for your help has come

LIQUID around the top of the dashboard
where the body metal is more likely
TO start %sQueaking than anywhere else.
Excess of oil should be wiped away
with a clean cloth. Then squirt around
the fender connections with the body
for sometimes a fender squeak when
heard inside the car sounds very much
like a pair of squeaky shoes right back
of your head.
Watch Body SiIIs.
Treat the door hinges, and lightly
wet the outside of the door frame,
for often the door rubbing against the
body will cause squeaking. You do not
have to wet the entire part, simply
look for high spots that are shiny or
which seem to be rubbing.
Other parts that should be treated
in like manner are the body sills, that
is. the joint that the body makes with
the frame of the car. As the car rides
along on a rough road the frame twists
and this twisting is transmitted TO the
body. The latter is forced to rub
against the frame and this causes a
squeak. In some cars frame rightly
| prevents this or SOM felt is used as
a quieting member. The hood is an
other part likely to squeak. The hood
hinges as well as the hood lacing
should be wet with the oil.
If the toe-boards of the car or even
the floorboards are too tight you are
likely to hear a loud squeak on a
rough road or on cobble stones. Loosen
the boards just a little so as TO pre-
vent their rubbing on the edges.
Fix Window Felt.
The foregoing are the common causes
of squeaks in a new car and, while they
also may develop in an old one, the lat
ter has many more annoying sounds,
which the new car rarely has. Loose
door locks, caused by wear after some
use. will produce, sometimes. a squeak
and more often a chattering. The
striker plates may need renewing or
the inside levers may need tightening
or new rubber bumpers may be neces-
sary. Window rattles in old closed
ears are a common source of rafting.
Where anti-rattles are provided there
must be a sufficient number so the
window may be held tight when it is
down part way.
Usually the window noise is caused
by worn felt strips into which the
glass is fitted. You must renew the
felt. You can buy the felt at a sup
ply store and after removing the old
strips and cleaning the pane with alco-
hol, use shellac TO stick the new felt
in place. Where the door itself is loose
due to loose hinges. and the hinge
screws are not effective. it is due to
the screw not taking hold in the wood.
Then remove the screw and force a
round piece of wood covered with glue
into the hole and then the screw will
take hold. In an old body it may be

Number of Persons
Carried in Motor Car

A comprehensive inquiry as the aver
age number of passengers carried in
an automobile shows some interesting
facts. The country wide average is one
and seven-tenths. Personal observa-
tons at six cities show that ever on
Sunday, when the number of passengers
carried per car might naturally be sup
posed to be the largest, the average is
less than four. On week days the aver
age corresponds closely with the aver
age for the country-less than two per
car.
This is only another indication of
the reason for the steadily increasing
popularity of the small car. Aside froin
the most important considerations of
first cost, low maintenance and ease of
repair because of standardization of
parts. the car that holds the smallest
number of people is of the greatest use

to replace the rubber bump
ers or the striker plates, as these be-
come worn and permit the doors to
shake.
Tighten Body Bolts
In an old car noises coming from
the chassis sound very much as though
they are produced inside the body.
S%queaking springs, spring shackles that
have side play and slap or knock and
rafting brake rods are just a few parts
that may give trouble.
In a new car the springs are painted
and sometimes a shackle squeak or q
leaf squeak develops that merely re-
quires a little oil to cure it.
Body bolts ought to be frightened on
every car at least twice a year. These
bolts hold the body to the frame OF
the car and if not tight they will per
the body to rub over the frame,
If they are too tight and there is nc
felt padding or other quieting device
between body and frame, they are like
ly to loosen in one weeks time.

RATTLE AND SQUEAKS IN
CLOSED BODIES

Nothing is more annoying than to
have a closed car delivered and in a
few hours time have it develop nu-
merous squeaks. Squeaks and rattles
in an old car are just as numerous and
considerably harder to find. A new
closed car of the so-caIled production
type, that is, made in vtry large
quantities, is apt to squeak at a num-
Der of points where friction exists and
then after a few ~washings with cold
water they may disappear. This is not
always so. as sometimes if no other
attention is given it may take months
of wearing in" before the body is
quiet. 1t reminds me of new shoes
that pinch because they are tight at
certain places.
Squeaking of a car body is due to
tightness at certain places and like
the shoes. will, in time, case up. But
the squeaking may be stopped on the
first day if the owner of the car Will
take the time TO do it. He should fill
an oil can with equal parts of lnbricat-
ing oil and kerosene and squirt his

The New York Closed Car show, held
a few weeks ago in the metropolis, was
the first in America to exhibit low
priced closed cars, with soft tops and
other cost reducing features, in num-
bers almost as great as b conyen-
tional, higher priced types.
The show visitor could not walk the
length of a single aisle without getting
the impression that the industry has
been putting itself earnestly to the
task of bringing closed cars within
reach of a far greater number of pock-
etbooks than in former years, says the
Motor World.
Among the new models shown at the
show III which Great Falls people will
be interested were two new Chandler
bodies, the new Nash chassis, a new
Oldsmobile body, two new REQ bodies,
new Oakland sedan and coupe, new
seven passenger Willys-Knight, new
Cole sedan, and the new Maxwell club
coupe.
New Chandler Sports Models
The two new Chandler bodies at the
New York show were the limousine at
S2,S95 and the town car, $500. Both
these models are fitted with what has
become generally known as sport"
equipment. including aluminium steps
with individual tenders and splashers,
drum type headlamps and so on. Slid
ing glass panels divide the driving COM
partment and a locking device prevents
shifting Of the panels. The limousine
carries five passengers in the rear and
is equipped with the usual fittings OF
a car of this class and also a dlcta-

and since l have longed for it, I cannot
help but appreciate this to the fullest
extent.
/ am having considerable trouble
with my car. Mechanics, supposed to
be the best, have given me 50 many
different explanations that | have de-
cided to write for your help. Some
saw it's a loud knock heard when the
shark is advanced on Il pull, by worn
wrist pins. others worn piston
bushings if the latter was attended to-"
Now q man said it was the valve tap
net rollers were worn and they caused
the knock" | even had this attended
to, but the same thing takes place.
If ! so to speed with the spark ad-
yanced, the motor knocks as though 1t
would fall apart, then when speed is
cut down or spark is retarded to
about half way or less this ceases.
Could it be loose main bearings, tim
ing gears. or small piston A. Z.
IT might be just very bad gasoline
which will act just as YOU say. How
ever. assuming the gasoline to be good,
your trouble may be caused by loose
pistons (not one hut ALI, loose rod
bearings; it may be a timing gear
slap. though | hardly believe this TO
be the ease. Wrist pins that are
loose often are mistaken Tor loose
tappets or piston slaps.
Dear Barney Oldfield: What makes
an engine miss about every 20 to 25
strokes, or revolutions!
Would n weak cylinder knock or
pound? l had all new pistons, rings,
pins, put in and bearings gone over.
This pound or knock comes when |
speed the engine up. Can you tell
me what is the cause?-S. G. S.
A weak cylinder will cause the en-
CINE to roll and give the effect of
a misfire. That weak cylinder may
also misfire and cause the trouble you
speak about. A knock in one cylinder
is caused by excessive compression, a
loose rod bearing, a piston slap (even
though you have new rings, a valve
knock.

When a sound is heard as if some
thing has fallen off the car, it is best TO
stop and go back and investigate. Tools
