"Motorist Must Use a Liquid
Which Will Not rreeso at
Very Low Temperature A
Protection To His Oar In Se

. Aa mentioned in previouo article of
mind. antt-freealnf solutions art !
Ititely essential to winter Motoring.
These solutions assy be mads at noma
purchased aa Jiqnld, or ia the form of
powder to be nUM with water. Aleo-
. kol. rarioui aalta. such aa ealeium chlo
ride, common Bait, et kereaep and
sther liquids ara employed to lower the
Fmiin point of the water.
Hi nee it ! impossible for em to for
Ml just what temperature will In met
frith, the motorist must uoa a liquid
nhirh will ant frees at very low tern
peraturc. gay 10 to C degrees below
trrn. L' riles tbia la done one ia not eafe
it all. If yon are going to um auti
freezing mixture ba aura tbat you una
ana atrong enough to tnka ear of e
tremcly.Jow temperature. Two yeart
ago we bad a very severe winter which
few motoriata eipected. The reiult was
that those who used tere or S below aero
' trluion'bRt- to payfotMW rmtlqttrra,
new eylindera and in hundred! of eaaea
many other parte had to be replaced,
The right solution must be selected, oth
erwise certain diaaBva'nTaKiT" preeent
themselves even though the freezing
point be correct.
Abont Keroeeaie.
Thia ia tbe ease j(h koroeene. Home
owaera initcad of using water have
filled the system with kerosene. It
prevents freezing, .but on certain dayi
it alao cause engine overheating. At
the aame time, one Is likely to get kero
sene vapor fli rough the overflow pipe
and the odor of thil ia constantly
around all pnrta of the ear. Aside from
iti unpleaaantnrai in thia respect, the
kerosene when hot slotvly attacks the
rubber eonnertions. This ia a slow
process, but it ertainly make renewal
necessary before the winter ia over. 1
do not advise you to use kerosene, ex
cept in aa emergency.
Common aalt in saturated solution
Will art aa an excellent anti-f reeze solu
tion. Put as much aalt into the water
as the water will hold. What will not
dissolve khould be removed. I advise
against the use of thia, except for
emergency, because as with other aalta
thera ia likely to be an eleetrolytie ac
tion act up in the radiator and water
jackets. Thia results in a slow destruc
tion of the metal. Where the salt hat
bqen so treated as to remove its acidic,
action, then it ia eafe to be nscd. Tha
ordinary commercial aalta are not so
treated, but many of the prepared com
pounds sold 'as knti-freese ara free
from acid and ara quite an i table. As
a matter of fact, I believe that the
compounds ana ean buy at the supply
stores ara to ba proferred because of
their cheapness and eifectlveneas and
alio because they do not require re
plenishing during tbe season, except as
ta tha addition ef water to iuc.be up for
evaporation. -
licforo using a mixture of any kind
be sure there are no leaks anywhere in
the water system, especially should this
be done with alcohol and salts. The
aalta will deposit on all parts of the
engine and give it an unsightly appear
tnee.

Barney Uldfleld: Lam reading your
articles on the care and use of aa auto
mobile and will greatly annrecinta nv
article you may jiave on tha auto. Es
pecially on the lire saving and proper
ma anu way 10 nanaie ear nsrter any
and all circumstances. R. H. W.
All the articles appearing under my
signature are for the ear owner and tell
of the proper handling and care of the
car.
Barney Oldnoldi I have one of the
most difficult troubles with my ear
believe that ever waa, known. It seems
and looka almost like a new ear, but
it baa a buck or Jerk whea I give the
ear plenty of gasoline and keep it going
pretty fast it runs better, but when J
slow down it starts to buck and Jera.
I notice that the small point in the
timer ia Just about worn down to noth
ing. Could this cause all the trouble f
The motor aeema to run fairly well when
the ear ia stnndmg. The plugs and tbe
battery aeem o. k. and tha lights and
starter work all right. Could the trouble
he in tha " distributor, transmission,
axles, dieercntial or universal joint.-
11. J. O.
T Aa not (Iniilit hut. that half .the
trouble is caused Jy misfiring- of the
engine, in an old ear mere is a great
deal of play in the transmission, clutch
and axle iwrts and if tha angina should
misfire that play ia lWiurtetrfTentv,e,
and returned and yon get what you can
bucking, first I would get the engine
to lire evenly on four cylinders at low
and high speeds a4 under lead, after
that I would take up'exeeas play be-
Yween mo uriving luiuon snu ri"K asr.
I might say that the misfiring is prob
ably all due to the burned out inter
rupter points.
Uarney Uldfleld: What should be the
proper air pressure in 3-inx4-in tire.
Home any 8U pounds, others 83 pounds.
J. P. II.
The proper pressure for a 34 by 4
depends on the car on which vim use
the tires. Ordinarily 80 pounds Is cor
rect but if M is a heavy car a few
pounds over may be necessary. If the
car ia very light few pounds under
may be carried.
Barney uldfleld s My ear make a
particular noise in the way of a ''tap,"
which is most noticeable when the rnr
is running at spaed of about 33 miles
per hoar other times it eaanot be heard
at thia speed. If running at, say fii
p. h., and the ' tap' is In avidence,
by opening the throttle trifle the noise
will eease until the momentum of tbe
ca catches up to the speed of the en
gine, when the "tap" wiff re-appear. If
the throttle ia suddenly closed when
running at this speed and at tbe aame
time releasing tha clutch, the tap ia
very distinct. There are timea when
it la Impossible to make the tap ap
pear.
To remedy the difficulty, I have had
oversize pistons put in, bad connecting-
roa Hearings la Ken up anu nave nea
camshaft bearings renewed, all of which
ha been without avail. I have also
had all new valves put in, but this has
also, failed to help matters.
I have decided to have my engine re
bored and new pinions put in, but
would like io have your advice as to
cause of Ike tapWf .W, ('.
If it ia merely it tap It is in such jrt
Is a valve tappet which,- when -under
load makes little or. no noise, but when
free makes itself heard. A gear will
do the aame thing, but tha sound tun
ally is a pound. I don't think it ia aa
inside part at all crankshafts cam
shaft, rods or piatons, unless your idea
or a tap is different from mine.
About Overheating.
Barney OldflpMi -l have trouble with
my earoverheating. When I go sip
greflo and give it more gus it hhihu.
just as if there is metal striking nu-tnl.
I eaa pull pretty stilt grades if I just
give the ait a liMIHt. but then 1
loan lots of speed and if grade ia too
stiff it will klunk. Shifting sears to
second and giving more gas only makes
it knock more. h. J. B.
The. car you have is not a chronic
OTerhcatet. There is "something wrong
wiOi .tlie cooling system of your par
ticular engine. Heroes wlint you should
do: Have the radiator and water Jack.
Jcja thoroughly clean of ecdiment, so
Ifhat water (Iowa freely from ton to bot
torn of radiator and from one hose to
the other. Then make aure that the
fan is running and the bolt not elip
plnrr too much, and that yon use J lie
sight emeuo t, f ,eit i, tietnnkeaie, '
The mixture should not be too weak or
riuh and the valve timing must be eor
reet. Any of fhese ean effect the cool
ing and cause overheating. The knock
ing ia simply an overheating knock,
The condition Hears the piston, eylia
dera and bearings. . '

mobile industry.
Jiena than five years are. on Decem
