Un- fortunately the perfect gasoline system has not yet been designed so it occasionally happens that the engine starts to splutter and misfire or stop altogether and an investigation shows the trouble lies in the gasoline system. It is well, therefore to know a little about it so that when trouble docs develop you know just how to go about finding the particular part at fault Suppose you find the engine not start or driving along the road your engine starts to slow wn and stop and | on testing discover there is no gasoline coming through to the carburetor. What procedure should you follow to trace the cause of | the trouble. t when you are Start at the gasoline tank and see that there is gasoline in it. | If there is suffici then examine the hole in the tank cap to see that it is clear. This hole allows air to enter the tank to replace the gasoline being drawn out of it by the va- cuum tank. If this hole gets blocked up, it prevents air enter- k | ing the ta ith the result that | after an amount’ of gasoline has beem drawn out of the tank a partial vacuum is created in it and this makes it impossible for the vacuum tank to draw gasoline from w CARBURETOR the connection on the pipe that leads from the top of the vacuum tank to the ‘induction pipe. If connections at cither end of this Pipe are loose it will be impossible to get a vacuum in the tank If all connections at the vacuum tank are tight, then screw out the small plug at the top of the tank and pour in about half a pint of gasoline, at the same time giving the side a few sharp slaps with your closed fist. Sometimes a little dirt lodges on the flapper valve in the vacuum tank and prevents it closin the above tip will cure the trouble. Now after pouring gasoline into tank start the engine and let run. If it stops in a short time and you find the vacuum tank empty, remove the gasoline pipe at the top of the vacuum tank, that leads to the main gasoline tank and clean the strainer you will find there when you remove the connection. Now close the throttle and turn over the engine with starter a few times and see if a gasoline has been drawn into the vacuum tank, If it is still dry, n there is nothing further you can do, as the fault is one that requires expert attention. li, however, you find on opening the drain cock at the bottom of the yacuum tank that gasoline flows from it, remove the strainer at the bottom of the carburetor and clean it, at the same blowing through the pipe leading from tha carburetor to the vacu ium, tank. Ree suppose you find that the engine will not start or has slowed down and stopped, yet an examination shows there is a good spark the points of the plugs and gasoline comes through quite fseely the carburetor, What should you do? The probability is that the jet in the carburetor is blocked up. If you have an adjustable jet, screw it out about two turns, open the throttle and close the choke valve, then turn the engine over half a dozen revolutions. This will generally suck up a in the jet. If you have a fixed jet carburetor, you remove the jet and blow out the dirt. Sometimes you find the engine slows up and stops or runs vers unevenly, and an examination shows that raw gasoline is being drawn into the cylinders. In this case the trouble may be caused cither by a blocked up vent on top. of yacunm tafik, a punctured float in vacuum tank or a closed or partly closed choke valve on the air intake to the carburetor. obstruction ill have to from getting stuck and gives se- cure traction when you need it most.
