I MANY THINGS CAUSE FAILURE OF BREAKS. "Brakes didn't, work" has spelled the cause of many an auto accident Tho brakes should bind tightly when pressure is applied, but they should be 'free and clear when not in use. If a ! brake shoe binds when tho pressure is roleased it makes the car run hard. I Sometimes oil working out on to the brako lining will cause the brakes to slip. If you see this is the cause, , wash off the lining with gasoline and I then sec that the leakage of grease I from the rear axle is stopped. I If it is worn linings that cause the brake to refuse to hold, then havo the brake relined. 1 A tendency of the car to skid to one side when the brakes are applied : is proof of an unequal adjustment.
