.|SIT CYLINDER
OR PISTON RING?
When Engine Lacks Power
and Compression Is Poor
Make Examination.
(By ERWIN GREER, President Greer
College of Automotive Engineering

(By ERWIN GREER, President Greer
College of Automotive Engineering,
Chicago)
There is nothing mysterious about
piston rings used in automobile en-
gines, even though repairmen will tell
you that new rings of a certain sort
will elevate your engine into some new
state in which it produces twice as
much power and speed as before.
There is a good deal of misinforma-
ton about piston rings, and because
of it automobile owners spend millions
each year for such parts, in many
cases getting no results from the ex-
penditure.
Piston rings are supposed to pack
the cylinder, so that the gas does not
leak downward and oil upward. In
order to be an ideal device it must do
this without exerting too much pres
sure against the cylinder wall, and
the pressure must be evenly distrib-
uted all around. The ring must fit the
cylinder perfectly; it must fit its
grooves in the piston so that it will
be neither too tight nor too loose.
Find Cause of Trouble.
Such piston rings will run perhaps
10000 or 10000 miles, but a time
must come when the rings no longer
make a gas-tight joint. 1t then is
necessary to find out why the rings
no longer fit well. The average
repair man will tell you that when
wear takes place only the rings be-
come worn, so that all that is neces-
sary to put the engine in first-class
shape is to replace the piston rings.
How the repair man knows is one of
the mysteries Of this world. The fact
is that no one can tell whether the
rings are worn or whether the cylin-
ders are worn, or just what the con-
dition of these parts Is unless the
parts themselves are examined and
measured.
This explains a great deal of trou-
bla owners have, because so-called
oversize rings were installed in the
cylinders. In the first place the cyl
inders should be made true, either by
grinding or some other process, and
new rings obtained to fit the new
bore. In this way only can one be
sure of perfect fit. To say that new
rings will lap themselves into an oval
bore is wrong, for they will not, nor
will new rings in worn cylinders take
the shape presented by score marks
or hard spots in the cylinder metal.
Rings Do Not Fit.
When your engine lacks power,
when the compression is poor, when
it pumps Oil and uses too much fuei,
1t usually is a sign that the rings do
not fit properly, but it is not sign
that new rings alone will cure these
troubles. You must find out the con-
dition of the cylinders into which the
rings fit. This means the grooves
must be trued in lathe to the exact
size of the new ring.

Florida Department Is
Pushing Construction

Working under provisions of an act
Of the legislature designating system
of roads to provide highways reach
ing from one end of the state to the
other, the Florida state road depart
ment Is making steady progress to-
ward completion of the network of
roads that have a total mileage of
1906. In addition to work being done
by the state, counties are bonding
themselves and spending millions of
dollars yearly in order to expedite
construction of the roads
The state road department has only
about $4,500,O0O year to operate on,
in addition to labor of thousand or
more state convicts who are assigned
to road-building work, but is going
ahead with it's program constructing
highways that cost from $4,000 to
$4,000 for the hardsurfaced type and
around $1,000 mile for sand-clay sur
face.
The system provides for a road into
Florida from Waycross, Ca, extending
along the east coast to Miami that
will eventually extend to Key West
when the contemplated Overseas high
way is contemplated two roads
through the central part of the state
from north to south; one across the
northern boarder from Jacksonville to
Pensacola, and a number of others
crossing the peninsula and western
wing at different intervals. Another,
the Tamiami trail, extending along the
west coast from Tampa through the
Everglades to Miami. is also under
construction.
