Where this ia suspected aa the trouble the remedy is to spin the engine rigorously. With the exception of the low voltage, due to the ekw cranking, whetv nthe car It equipped with a magneto, we might say that the ignition troubles which might cause failure to start are the fame as for the midden Mopping of the engine.- What about mixture Here is the cause of about 0 per cent of the starting trou Me, as both, the cold ami slow cranking will affect the carburetor ectlon.. It takes a certain amount of heat to vaporise gasoline, and. like steam, when the vaporised gasoline strikes a cold surface, it will condense- - Let us eee what happens when we crank the engine while it Is quite cold. Due to the suction a certain amount of gasoline win be sprayed out of the carburetor nossle and with some air will travel toward the cylln dera. On the way it will strike the cold manifold and much of It will condense so that we will practically get nothing but air into the cylinders, and ths engine will not start. What can he done under these circumstances? Why make the mixture, as It leaves the carburetor, so rich in gasoline that, while much will condense on the way, enough will reach the cylinders to cause the engine to start. After the engine has started the suotton will be so vigorous and the speed of the mixture from the carburetor to the cylinders so great that the gas will not have a w Lake-- G ran tsvH I Road Important chance to oondense, end, moreover, much of the previously condensed gas will be drawn along. For this reason practically all care are equipped with some device which will enrich the mixture when starting, such as a device for shutting or choking off the air, thus causing an al most raw gaa to be sucked up, or a device for flooding the carburetor. In extreme cold weather even these devloee may not be enough, end the engine will have to be primed by pouring some raw gasoline into the cylinders or the through the compreselon cocks spark plug openings. The writer found a squirt can, aa shown In the illustration, to be A 'great convenience for priming purpose. This can held considerable gasoline, and, because of the Itcap on the could be spout and the oblong shape conveniently carried In the side pocket of the door. Sometimes when the choke valve has been used for too long a time, the enIf, after turngine will become flooded. ing the engine over while cranking a number of times It does not start, do not keep cranking with Choke valve closed or you may flood thq engine. When this occurs, open the compression cocks and, by spinning the engine, blow the exces gasoline out. In cold weather flooding Is not liable to cause trouble, but It often does on warm days. Opening the throttle valve too much or not enough will often be the cause of Is no the engine (ailing to start. There rule which can be given as to this, a some will start only when the throttle la wide open, while others will not start, notably the Zenith, under this condition. Experience alon wlH tell you the right position for the throttle control lever, though with most carburetors open Is about right for starting. Is the carburetor adjustment liable to be the cause of engine not starting? Not if the engine started easily last week and always before.

Mr. Diehl, with others, will speak for the motorists of America. He will undertake to tell the meeting what the motorist wants and expects In the building of highways. "I should appreciate the best thought and suggestions of automoblltsts from every section of the United States, in order that 1 may be thoroughly equipped to preeent all phases of the motorist's case," said Mi Diehl today 1 "To that end, I should appreciate hearing from the automobile dubs of the country and from individual motorlsta Their suggestions should be sent promptly to our Washington office, aa there Is but little time before the conference meets.
