, but I've repaired cars long enough
to know that there are lot OF
angles to stoppin' the engine and that
unless you know 'em thereu be
trouble in store.
Last night when that seven-pas-
senger bus was brought in the driver
raced the engine like the old Harry
before switchin' Off the ignition. His
argument was that this caused the
engine to turn over a half dozen or
more revolutions Of its own mo-
mentum after the ignition was
switched off, and that the cylinders
would load up with gas vapor which
would stay in the cylinders all night
and help him get a quick start in
the mornin'.
The theory OF 1t was fine, but L
notice that he cranks the car just
as much in the mornin' as anybody
else. He doesn't realize that even
though the engine spins over few
times while the ignition is off the
valves keep on operatin just the same
as though the engine were runnin'.
This means that most OF the I'M
burned gas vapor goes out the ex-
haust, and that when the engine set
ties down for the night there is only
one cylinder under compression.
anu DtSduSS the valves w Hot seat
tight this gas vapor gradually leaks
out: 1t will also leak past the rings,
either as gas or as gasoline condens-
ed because of the cooling of the
cylinder walls.
Another chap pulls out the choker
an instant when shuttin' off the
ignition. This is even worse, be-
cause in addition to wastin' even
more fuel. it drenches the valve
heads with raw gasoline. This
causes the valves to stick, anu also
helps to thin the crankcase oil.
The best way to stop the engine,
from my experience, is to switch it
off while it's runnin' slow and then
switch on the ignition an instant
afterwards to make sure that the gas
vapor is pretty well burned.

agents, newspaper editors and pull
