Turn off the Ignition Switch and open Throttle wide, and then test the compression by pulling each cylinder over SLOWLY with the hand crank. There should be considerable resistance in each cylinder when you pull it over. If it appears weak in one or more cylinders then— 2. Test the Valve clearance between the bottom of the Valve Stem and the top of the Valve Tappet, or if it is an Overhead Valve, test between the top of the Push Rod and the Rocker Arm. If there is insuffi- cient clearance, that is, there is NO space between the Valve Stem and the Tappet, the Valve will not Seat properly, and the engine will have no power. When it is WELL WARMED UP, and the Valve is seated, the Tappet should just be free to turn : around, with a clearance between the bottom of the Valve Stem and the top of the Tappet of about the thickness of a piece of book paper. It varies on different engines, Overhead Valves generally have more clearance allowed than Poppet Valves. Find out from the Instruction Book you got with your car what the EXACT clearance should be, and see that the Valves are kept to that clearance. If the clearances check up all right then— 3, Examine the Valve faces. If they are black Se SZ | avd vitted’ they will require to be ground in bee fore the cylinders will hold compression. Ii the Spark Plugs are oiling up quickly and the porce- Jains are covered with an OILY, GUMMY deposit, and the eytinder heads are covered with a deposit of carbon, you may need to fit new Piston Rings as well as grind in the Valves before the engine will deliver its maximum power. If, however, the compression is GOOD then— 4. Take out and examine all Spark Ping gaps. They should be just a trifle LESS than the thick- ness of a WORN dime. The gaps at the Spark Plug points should be inspected at regular inter- vals, as the correctness with which they are set has a lot to do with the efficient running of the engine. If the points are set too close, the engine will misfire at low speeds or when accelerating from low speeds, the spark being too weak around the points of the Plug to fire the charge quickly. If the gap is too wide, the engine will be hard to start, and will misfire especially on a hard pull. The throttle is wide open when the engine is pulling hard, and allows a full charge of gas to be taken into each cylinder, so increasing the compression in the cylinder. This s harder for the spark to jump the gap at the Plug, and the so great that now and again, the spark will not jump the P at all, causing the engine to misfire, If the Plugs are all right en— 5, Make sure'the Brakes are not dragging. After running at a fair speed for some time, stop the car and feel the brake drums. If they are HOT, the brakes are binding or dragging. Jack up the rear wheels, and with the brake lever off, the wheels should turn freely. Slack off the adjusting screw until the wheel turns freely. After adjusting the brakes, test them PE the car along the road, king seeing that they act promptly in ie car, If the brakes are all right then— 6. Test to sce that the Clutch is not slipping. To do this: Ist. Pull on the brakes. ind. Push in the Clutch. 3rd. Speed up the engine to about the same speed it yvould be running on the road at 15 miles an hour. 4th. CRADUALLY let in the clutch. If the engine WILL-STILL KEEP RUNNING, the clutch is slipping and will require adjusting. If the engine STOPS when you let the clutch in then— 7. Remove the Muffler, then take it apart and clean it, or tap it all round with a wooden mallet, then FULLY RETARD spark lever and race the engine up a few times when most of the loose carbon will be blown ont. 8. Check up the Ignition Timing to see that it is not too far re- tarded. Sopaiticle doar NaiS it sod donot know Bow to d> this 9. Examine the Breaker Points and the gap at the points as shown im the second article at B. If they check up all right then— 10. Test the High Speed Carberetor adjustment, or have an expert mechanic do it for you if you do not know how. ll, Examine to make sure that when the throttle lever is fully advanced, that the Butterfly Valve in the Carburetor throttle is straight across the opening to the Intake Manifold. When the throttle lever is advanced, the Butterfly Valve may only be PARTLY open, thus preventing the imll amonmt of mixture from entering the cylinders. 2 have not changed your off im the crankcase within the difference in the running of your engine.

They find nothing totempt them elsewhere. Some have owned five, ten, siateen successive Hudsons. They have found each succeeding Hudson a better, smoother, finer car. Those who drive today’s Super-Six call it the greatest Hudson ever built. Its price makes it conspicuous not only among cars of comparable fineness, but even among those that you never classify with Hudson in quality.
