This attention takes only about five minutes of your time once every two weeks, and cansists simply of test- ing each cell with a hydrometer, then adding distilled water to bring the level of the electrolyte to from 34 in. to ¥ in. above the top of the lates, ‘ If you run your car at top speed all the time on thrte cylinders, in a very short time the engine would start to overheat and knock, and tell you it required attention at once.

An en- gine with a missing cylinder gives you an audible indication that there \ ~~ is somicthing wrong, whereas the WARM WEATHER CARE battery gives no warning that there OF BATTERY’ is anything wrong with it until it is in a bad condition. ‘ If you neglect keeping the cells filled to the correct level with dis- tilled water, you can be quite certain your battery will not give you very long or satisfactory service, There are two reasons ior this. First the generator on your car is designed to keep a full sized battery charged and if only three-quarters of the plates are receiving the full charge es are liable to be damaged by the overcharging they will receive and buckle and allow the lead composition in them to become loosened and fall to the bottom of the cell, ‘ So that you may realize more clearly)the necessity for adding dis- tilled water to the battery at least every two weeks during the sum- mer, I will explain how the water is lost. ‘ Next time you are near a battery-charging station, ask the battery man to show you a battery that is “gassing”. This shows that it is nearing or at full charge. Tht gassing naturally causes a certain amount of the distilled water to evaporate. If the battery in your car is in normal condition, it is gassing during the warm weather for a large part of your running. During the summer weather the lights i Yom ABOVE DISTILLED | } PLATES. iL WATER 7] KEEP BATTERY J) TERMINALS: CLEAN ANO SMEARED WITH VASOLINE are not used to any extent and the engine is easy to start, so that | there is a comparatively small amount of current’ taken from the bat~ tery, with the result that the generator keeps it practically fully charged and gassing at all times. * ‘ During the cold weather the battery does not gas nearly as much a¥ it does during the warm weather and this is one of the reasons wh the water does not require replacing during the winter as often as it does during the summer weather. ‘ All liquids evaporate when heated and the heat of the summer naturally causes a certain amount of evaporation of the distilled water in the’ battery cells. Here again is another reason why the water in the battery requires replacing oftener during the summer weather. When driving on roads that are rough a certain amount of the electrolyte will splash or spill out of the vent caps. This will corrode the battery terminals and prevent the current flowing freely to the starter, lights, and ignition system. After replacing distilled water, it is a good idea to sop up any dampness that may be on the top of the battery and smear some vaseline on the battery terminals. If the terminals are at all corroded or sulphated, they should be removed | and scraped quite clean, replacing. The hydrometer tells you whether the battery is in good condition or not. It is necessary to remove the vent caps and test each cell separately. Take the reading BEFORE adding distilled water to the cells, otherwise you will not.get a true reading. Remove one vent cap at a time so that you are always sure to replace the electrolyte in the cell from which it was taken. Draw up enough liquid to float the bulb and be sure that it does not stick against the side of the glass. ‘ If the battery is fully charged the hydrometer will show a reading between 1.275 and 1.300. If it shows about 1.250 it is only half charged, then smeared heavily with vaseline after and if it is as low as 1,150 it is practically discharged and should be | The reading should be the same | taken to a battery station at once. for all cells. If one cell reads much lower than the others, it indicates that it is defective. Copyright, 1995, by 8. MW. L.
