A squeak will also come from a loose body or fender bolt, or loose lug bolts of the demountable rims. The top la also often the cause of a squeak. The driving gears of the speedometer, especially when they are placed on one of the front wheels, wiH very often cause an annoying scratching sound. An investigation will often show that a small piece of gravel hes - lodged - im the teeth of one of the gears, the removal of which will eliminate the noise. Of course, there are Innumerable other places, such as a loose, hood.' windshield, etc., from brake support, which squeaking or rattling sounds can come Tabulating the above noises, and referring to the illustration, wo find that a KNOCK "art Come from the clutch discs (A), universal pins or bushings (Hi, the torque arm bumper (C), broken differential gear ( lit HUMMING OR GkOWUNO from transmission gears (E),, dlffeientlal gears (Dt.

Next after the clutch comes the transmission or gear set. Even on new cars there will usually be a hum or growl of the gears when in reverse, low or second. This la due to the setting or cutting of the gears and cannot be cured and does no harm.
