Show I TO THE AUTO- I MOBILE OWNER aS ' H Altogether too -muchgsoMne, pit M and energy are used in running the H automobile. Every driver should H study his Cfir and make sure he" Is H getting the very best service with the H very least fuel nr.rt energy. First in H the matter of oil. Lubrication is ab- M coiutely necessary but enough is plen- 1 ty. An over supply Is wasteful and H had for tho car. Every modern car H Is provided with greaso, cups and H guages so there is hardly an excuse H for lack of oiling or over oiling. First H make yourself familiar with all oiling H parts and then lenow tho working of H these parts and oil accordingly1. How H nmny times we seb a driver going H down a grade with a good throttle of H gas and tho foot brake on at tho H same time. This Is wasteful as well H as wearing out the machine unneces- H sarily. Tho brakes are very nec6ssary H to nn automobile but Ihey are alto- H KC-ther too much usod. It Is far bet- B ter to throttle down tho gas and re- H tard tho spark to slow down tho car than to apply tho brakes. On our H ordinary roads It is hardly necessary H to use the brakes at all. Too few drlv- H Grs pay enough attention to tho Ignl- H tlon. Every car Is provided with the H cpark levor nnd it has Its use. When H the car Is moving slow and revolutions H consequently Blow tho Ignition should H be n lilllo later, To get this result H retard the spark lovor. As tho spoed 1 increases iidvanco tho lover and re- H tarda ns tho car slows down. It you H will follow this method you will find H very much less heating of your motor. |
