Most engines will misfire a little in cold weather until ~~ they are warmed up. If the engine IS warmed up, and runs as above then— Examine the Carburetor— If Gasoline is leaking BADLY from it, see A. If Gasoline is NOT leaking from it, see B. A 1. Grasp the Float Valve and raise it up and down, allowing the gasoline to fiush out the seat, iving ita half turn back and forth as you do so. fr the leaking STILL continues then— 2. Hold the Float Valve firmly on its seat, and GENTLY tap it with a small hammer or the end of a wrench two or three times, giving it a half turn round each time as you do so. This will usually result in making a new seat. Be VERY CAREFUL you do not Tit hard or you may bend the Valve. If the leaking STILL continues then— 3. Turn off the gasoline and take out the Float and Float Valve, to sce if it is rough or badly ringed. If it is, it requires facing up, a job for the Service Station or the makers of the Carburetor. the ‘alve and Valve Seat look all right then— 4. If the Float is a metal one, shake it to see if there is any gaso- line inside. If there is it can be repaired by immersing it in very hot water until no more bubbles arise, noting the spot iahiece they came from, then with a VERY SMALL soldering iron, apply just a tip of SOFT SOLDER. An iron too hot will ties up the seams of the Float beyond repair, and too much solder will throw the Float out of balance. t is always better to buy a new Float than try to repair an old one, and above directions are given where this fault develops and it is impossible to procure a new Float. f the Float is made of cork, see if it is not water soaked. It should Ee one dry. Ifit is NOT, then dry out and give it two coats of thin shellac. If both the Float and Float Valve appears to be all right, yet the Carburetor continues to flood, then— 5. The gasoline level in the Float Chamber is too high. It shoul§ stand approximately 1/32” from the top of the Jet. To test accurately and remedy this defect requires special knowledge of the Carburetor, 60 have this trouble remedied by the Carburetor Service Station. B 1. Take out all Spark Pings and examine the gars to see they are set correctly. They should je just a trifle LESS than the thickness of a WORN DIME. If they are all right then— 2. Test the Joints on the Intake Manifold by flowing a little gasoline around them, noticing if it makes the engine run any faster when you flow the gasdline around the joint. If it DOES, tighten the nuts on the flange and test again. If joints STILL leak, fit new gaskets. If%t makes NO difference then— 3. If you have an ATR VALVE on the Carburetor, see that it is not sticking partly open all the time. If it is all right then— 4. Examine to see if there is any play in the small shaft that holds the throttle valve in position in the Carburetor. If there is, have Carburetor overhauled by Carburetor Service Station. If it shows no sign of being worn then— 5. Examine the Valve Guides to see that they are not worn badly, so allowing air to be drawn in, making the mixture too weak at low speeds. If there is very much play, you will either have to fit new Valves vere ores with oversize stems, or new guides. If, however, leas the guides are all right then— ; 6. If you have a Low S; Needle Valve or Jet, see that it is not blocked. To do this turn the adjustment OUT TWO TURNS, then with the Choker Button pulled out, and the throttle open just about two notches, turn the , engine over as fast pe Pere about ten times. Now turn the adjust- ment back FOUR TURNS and start the engine. If it is no better then— 7. Remove the Muffler, then take it apart and clean it, or tap it all around with a wooden mallet, then fully retard the Spark lever and race the engine up a few times, when most of the loosened Carboa\ will be blown out. If this does not make any difference then— 8. Test the Low Speed Carburetor adjustment. First FULLY retard . the Spark Lever and close the throttle lever as much as possible. Now ‘A. turn in the Stop Screw on the carburetor throttle valve until the engine ‘turns slowly, then turn the Low Speed-adjusting Screw in or out until the engine runs smoothly and evenly. If ed find that it is impossible to get the engine to run slowly and evenly then— 9. Test the Ignition Timing as shown in article Four, No. 8, to see that it is not too far advanced. If it checks up all right then— 10. Have the Carburetor and if necessary the Ignition overhauled by the Service Station of makers of car, as the fault is an internal one requiring the skill of an expert mechanic.
