If you have read thes« articles, you will have noticed that the mechanical condition of thr ‘ar was of even more importance than the side appearance. If you have been careless about watc the level of ng in the crankcase and allowed it to get too low at times, the engin may have run so hot that one or more of the cylinders have become scored. When this happens you have trouble with the spark plug: fouling and causing the engine to misfire. . At the same time yor find the engine has to have the carbon removed frequently, When you sell your car, if the buyer knows how to inspect it, h: soon discovers the scored cylinder and you find it very difficult « make a sale. If you are careful to keep the oil in the crankcase at the correct level all the time, you not only keep the engine in good condition, but find it much easicr to sell or trade in your car, Next in importance to the lubri- cation of the engine is the lubrica- tion of the steering gears and front axle connections. rast own- ers are careful to watch the lubri- cation of the engine but compara- tively few worry very, much abou: other parts of the car. Just gc out to your car and have a look at the steering knuckle pins, spring shackle bolts king pins, ete., and at least eight out of ten are going to find that thé. connections arc covered with a coating of dry, hard grease and dirt, and have not been touched for some considerable i If you take aut the pins or bolts and examine them, you will more than likely find ‘they are guite dry and innocent of lubrication. If the car has been in service for months or more, you will also find that the connections are beginning to get a little worn or loose. Refore long you notice that your car develops a series of noisy rattles and groans that are very menoriie All connections that are exposed under the car must be lu- bricated very frequently to prevent water and grit working in. When you screw down a grease cup or force the grease in with a gun, you not only lubricate the bearing but you also force out any grit or dirt \lthat may have found its way into the bearing since the last time you lubricated it. Every day yoy read of automo- bile accidents. It might surprise you to know that a number of these are the direct result of lack of lubrication. If the lubrication of the steering gear is neglected, it soon makes the steering stiff. Per- haps at the critical moment you have to act quickly to avoid an ceident and find the steering is so stiff that you cannot turn quickly nough. If the lubrication of such parts as the steering knuckles and wheels ected, the bearings soon become worn. These parts are ected to a considerable amount of jarring and vibration and if If CONNECTIONS ON FRONT AXLE ARE NOT KEPT CLEAN AND WELL LUBRICATED, WATER AND GRIT ENTER BEARINGS THUS CAUSING RAPID WEAR WHEN LUBRICATING CONNECTIONS EXPOSED TO ROAD SPLASH, FORCE GREASE THROUGH UNTIL IT.

When you neglect to keep a part well oiled or greased, the two surfaces make a metal to metal contact, then wear starts. If all parts of the chassis are lubricated regularly, they will give little, if any trouble, =nd only require replacing at long interval You will find in the instruction book you got with your car, a lubri- cation chart which specifies how often to tbricate each part. If you follow these instructions you will find your car will run smoother and quieter and your repair bills for replacements will be few.

The engine may be overloaded, due to friction in the chassis parts, and the overloaded engine may then develop. through no fault of its own, more heat than the cooling system can readily dispose of. The third fault may be due to the cooling sys tem itse’f, which may not radiate heat fast enough, due to the water net circylating through the cooling system, or to the air not flowing through the radiator fast enough to property cool the water passage: and the water within them. The fourth and last general cause, poor driving, includes the manner in which the car is hendied, as well as the other faults in a general way—Automobile Digest.
