COMPRESSION is
SERIOUS MATTER
President Greer Gives Some
Sound Advice on How to
Master Grave Problem.

(By ERWIN GREER, President Greer Col
lege OF Automotive Engineering. Chicago)
During our apprenticeship in the
auto school. garage or breaking in on
our first car, each one of us has been
commanded to go out and buy can
of compression. After a conscientious
search and being passed from one me-
chanic to another some one suddenly
spilled the beans. 1t was then that
we discovered that can of compress
sion is similar to left-handed mon
key wrench. We laughed about it and
then took on the next automobile boob.
And since the coming of the self
starter, engine compression might as
well be in a can for all the average
motorcar owner knows or cares. But
the secret of the sweet-running engine
decomposition.
Turn Over the Engine.
Try the compression of each cylin-
der by turning the engine over with
the hand crank. If it is weak or il it
varies in different cylinders. have the
trouble repaired at once. Compression
may lCdh past thC pAoAOA AAABos ~ AA0S
escape through leaky valve, or ooze
past a spark plug There possibly may
be a cracked cylinder, in which case
you are totally "out of luck"
The piston rings may have turned
so that the openings are all in line, or
you may be using such a light oil
that the engine does not get a tight
compression seal. Oil when heated is
very thin. In some cases patented
piston rings will help eliminate the
leakage If the cylinder is worn oval
there is no remedy except that of re-
placing it. Kerosene will help free
the rings of carbon, but it is best to
use it when you are ready to drain
off the old crank-case oil.
Make sure that the spark plugs fit
tightly and that they are provided
with good asbestos gaskets. A cracked
porcelain will allow compression to
escape.
Look over the printing cups and see
that they all fit tightly and stay
closed.
Some of the Symptoms.
During compression the valves
should be tightly closed. A broken
spring or faulty adjustment will pre-
vent their closing, and this will result
in no compression at all, or, in the
case of incorrect timing, the trouble
will be noticeable as a lack of power
in all cylinders. Carbon under the
valves will prevent them from seat
ing tightly. The remedy here is to
keep the engine free from carbon, the
valves clean and be sure that the tim
ing of the valves and the tappet adj
justment are as set down in your In
struction book.
When an engine that is clean, prop
erly fabricated and has its valves
ground regularly shows a serious loss
of power, the lack of proper compress
sion may safely be ascribed to the
piston rings having worked into line,
or the cylinders having worn to
point where the pistons are unduly
loose With the modern type rings,
the former is rare fault nowadays,
so that the cause is narrowed down to
plain wear
These are the chief causes of loss
of compression. Watch the compress
sion-it will save you money that 9TH
erwise you would give to the repair
man.

gagable by a screw rocking with the
clutch lever, but the Calcaterra device
permits the release of the brake with
out releasing the safety device, the
idea being to prevent the accidental
running away Of car, when the brake
is released, thus eliminating much
emergency brake trouble by holding
the clutch neutral until it is purposely
thrown into low gear position by de-
preston of the pedal lever, whereby
the safety device is automatically re-
stored ready to be again operated
when the brake is applied. Also it per
mits the car to be manually moved
without being opposed by the brake.
Stop means holding the device always
in position to be operated.
