CLEAN o SYSTEM

w. E. K. writes: "My tractor en-
CINE has lime or other deposits in it.
Please send directions for cleaning
it out"
There are three general kinds of
deposits which collect in auto and
tractor cooling systems-grease and
tarry sediment, rust, and lime or
hard water scale.
Usually the direction book will
tell how to clean out the cooling
system, and these directions should
be followed, but the general method
is to fill the cooling system with a
solution of one pound of washing
soda to the gallon of water, run the
engine for two or three hours, and
flush thoroughly with clean water.
This removes any greasy or tarry
deposits.
To remove lime and rust, fill the
radiator with a solution of one part
of muriatic acid to seven parts water
and let stand in the hot cooling sys-
tenn for So hours. Then drain off the
solution, flush out the system with
water in which a can of I've has been
added, then with clean water.
